“…Previous studies have shown that the representative microorganisms of group O, Rhodobacter, could degrade organic compounds such as petroleum hydrocarbons [37] and pesticides [38] in the ecosystem. Members of Rhodobacter mainly produce biosurfactants to promote the degradation of organic compounds.…”

“…A 96.86% degradation percentage of atrazine was observed with Rhodobacter sphaeroides sp. W16 inoculation in the soil at the level of 100 mg kg −1 atrazine after 15 days ( Du et al, 2011 ). But up to now, most of the studies still focus on the isolation of new atrazine degrader and evaluation of atrazine degradation.…”

“…According to the statistics of Iranian Plant Protection, 250 tons of this herbicide was used in 2008 and the average consumption was 1–5 Kg per hectare [14]. When people are exposed to Atrazine at levels above the drinking water maximum contaminant level (MCL) for relatively short periods of time, they may face congestion of heart, lungs, and kidneys, low blood pressure, muscle spasm, weight loss and damage to the adrenal gland [6,15]. Atrazine is easily absorbed through the digestive tract, skin, and lungs and chronic exposure to levels above the MCL causes heart diseases, retinal and muscle damage, weight loss, and damage to the adrenal gland [16].…”
