Genome Characterisation of an Isoprene-Degrading <i>Alcaligenes</i> sp. Isolated from a Tropical Restored Forest

Isoprene is a climate-active biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC), emitted into the atmosphere in abundance, mainly from terrestrial plants. Soil is an important sink for isoprene due to its consumption by microbes. In this study, we report the ability of a soil bacterium to degrade isoprene. S...
