RESUMO
Biogenic manganese oxides (BMO) are widely distributed in groundwater and provides promise for adsorbing and oxidizing a wide range of micropollutants, however, the continuous biodegradation and bioavailability of micropollutants via cycle biogenic Mn(II) oxidation remains to be elucidated. In this study, glyphosate was degraded and to serve as the nutrient source by a Pseudomonas sp. QJX-1. The addition of glyphosate will not affect the Mn(II) oxidation function of the strain but will affect its Mn(II) oxidation process and effect. The glyphosate degradation products could further be used as the C, N and P sources for bacterium growth. Analysis of the RNA-seq data suggested that Mn(II) oxidation driven by oxidoreductases for glyphosate degradation. The long-term column experiments using biological Mn(II) cycling to realize continuous detoxification and metabolism of glyphosate, and thus revealed the synergism effects of biological and chemical conversion on toxic micropollutants and continuous metabolism in an aquatic ecosystem.
