Insights into polyethylene biodegradative fingerprint of Pseudomonas citronellolis E5 and Rhodococcus erythropolis D4 by phenotypic and genome-based comparative analyses

Polyethylene (PE) is the most-produced polyolefin, and consequently, it is the most widely found plastic waste worldwide. PE biodegradation is under study by applying different (micro)organisms in order to understand the biodegradative mechanism in the majority of microbes. This study aims to identi...
