Abstract The Persian Gulf, hosting ca. 48% of the world’s oil reserves, has been chronically exposed to natural seepage. Oil spill studies show a shift in microbial community composition response pollution; however, influence chronic exposure on remains unknown. We performed genome-resolved comparative analyses water and sediment samples along Gulf’s pollution continuum (Strait Hormuz, Asalouyeh, Khark Island). Continuous trace amounts primed intrinsic rare marine oil-degrading microbes such...

Abstract Background Hydrocarbons (HCs) are organic compounds composed solely of carbon and hydrogen that mainly accumulated in oil reservoirs. As the introduction all classes hydrocarbons including crude products into environment has increased significantly, pollution become a global ecological problem. However, our perception pathways for biotic degradation major HCs key enzymes these bioconversion processes been based on cultured microbes is biased by uneven taxonomic representation. Here...

Phytoremediation is an environmentally friendly and cost-effective approach for the remediation of heavy metals from contaminated environments. However, its effectiveness can be influenced by various factors, particularly structure diversity soil microbial communities, which play a crucial role in enhancing or hindering phytoremediation process. In this study, cadmium-contaminated was investigated through cultivation Vetiveria zizanioides, examining effects on communities. The concentration...

Strain RIPI 110T was isolated from a soil sample collected an oil-contaminated site on Siri Island, Persian Gulf, Iran. Cells of the novel isolate were Gram-stain-negative, facultatively anaerobic, non-motile and rod-shaped. divided asymmetrically by budding formed rosette-like clusters. The optimum pH temperature for growth 7 30 °C, while strain able to grow at 5.5-8 15-35 °C. utilized only complex carbon sources pyruvate as sole source could not under photoautotrophic conditions. highest...

Groundwater pollution is one of the major environmental concerns. The entrance pollutants into oligotrophic groundwater ecosystems alters native microbial community structure and metabolism. This study investigated application innovative Small Bioreactor Chambers CaO2 nanoparticles for phenol removal within continuous-flow sand-packed columns 6 months. Scanning electron microscopy confocal laser scanning analysis were conducted to indicate impact attached biofilm on sand surfaces in...

A crude-oil-degrading, Gram-stain-positive actinobacterial strain, RIPIT, was isolated from a soil sample collected an oil-contaminated mud pit in Khangiran oil and gas field, the north-east of Iran. RIPIT strictly aerobic, catalase- oxidase-positive. The strain grew with 0–12.5 % (w/v) NaCl (optimum 3–5 %), at 25–55 °C 45 °C) pH 6.0–9.5 7.0). results 16S rRNA gene sequence comparative analysis indicated that represents member genus Prauserella , high phylogenetic similarity to coralliicola...
