Identification and Characterization of Bacterial Isolates and their Role in the Degradation of Neonicotinoid Insecticide Thiamethoxam

Thiamethoxam (THIA) degrading bacterial colonies were isolated from soil obtained from different ecosystems such as cotton, cabbage and paddy tolerating high concentrations of the insecticide followed by enrichment technique. Eight colonies were isolated and were morphologically and biochemically te...
