Developing Bioprospecting Strategies for Bioplastics Through the Large-Scale Mining of Microbial Genomes
The accumulation of petroleum-based plastic waste has become a major issue for the environment. A sustainable and biodegradable solution can be found in Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs), a microbially produced biopolymer. An analysis of the global phylogenetic and ecological distribution of potential PH...
