Linking Structure and Function to Manage Microbial Communities Carrying Out Chlorinated Ethene Reductive Dechlorination
abstract: Contamination by chlorinated ethenes is widespread in groundwater aquifers, sediment, and soils worldwide. The overarching objectives of my research were to understand how the bacterial genus Dehalococcoides function optimally to carry out reductive dechlorination of chlorinated ethenes in...
