A Metagenome-based Examination of Dechlorinating Enrichment Cultures: Dehalococcoides and the Role of the Non-dechlorinating Microorganisms.

Bioremediation of chlorinated solvents to a non-toxic end product can be achieved with Dehalococcoides sp., through reductive dehalogenation of the chlorinated organics. Dehalococcoides sp. are typically maintained in enrichment cultures containing multiple microorganisms, which often exhibit bette...
