Salinity effect on the metabolic pathway and microbial function in phenanthrene degradation by a halophilic consortium

Abstract With the close relationship between saline environments and industry, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) accumulate in saline/hypersaline environments. Therefore, PAHs degradation by halotolerant/halophilic bacteria has received increasing attention. In this study, the metabolic pathwa...
