“…(Chen et al, 2011b) have been reported for pyrethroid biodegradation (Birolli et al, 2018). Fungi have been found to possess comparatively better pesticide degradation potential than bacteria (Bhatt, 2019; Gangola et al, 2019). Many researchers have predicted pyrethroid degradation metabolites and pathways.…”

Pyrethroids are broad-spectrum insecticides and presence of chiral carbon differentiates among various forms of pyrethroids. Microbial approaches have emerged as a popular solution to counter pyrethroid toxicity to marine life and mammals. Bacterial and fungal strains can effectively degrade pyrethroids into non-toxic compounds. Different strains of bacteria and fungi such as Bacillus spp., Raoultella ornithinolytica, Psudomonas flourescens , Brevibacterium sp., Acinetobactor sp., Aspergillus sp., Candida sp., Trichoderma sp., and Candia spp., are used for the biodegradation of pyrethroids. Hydrolysis of ester bond by enzyme esterase/carboxyl esterase is the initial step in pyrethroid biodegradation. Esterase is found in bacteria, fungi, insect and mammalian liver microsome cells that indicates its hydrolysis ability in living cells. Biodegradation pattern and detected metabolites reveal microbial consumption of pyrethroids as carbon and nitrogen source. In this review, we aim to explore pyrethroid degrading strains, enzymes and metabolites produced by microbial strains. This review paper covers in-depth knowledge of pyrethroids and recommends possible solutions to minimize their environmental toxicity.

“…Xenobiotic compounds such as organophosphates, aromatic hydrocarbons, phenols and heavy metals, are a major source of soil and environmental degradation in many parts of the world ( Cameotra and Bollag, 2003 ; Jha et al, 2015 ; Gangola et al, 2019 ; Thakur et al, 2019 ). They are considered potentially toxic, carcinogenic and persist in the soil for long periods of time.…”

“…They are considered potentially toxic, carcinogenic and persist in the soil for long periods of time. They are introduced in agricultural soils, largely through use of chemicals such as pesticides, fertilizers and herbicides ( Jha et al, 2015 ; Gangola et al, 2019 ). Industrialization, especially pharmaceutical companies and mining also play a major role in introducing xenobiotics to the environment.…”

“…Industrialization, especially pharmaceutical companies and mining also play a major role in introducing xenobiotics to the environment. Given the growing industrialization and the current heavy use of chemicals, especially in agriculture ( Gangola et al, 2019 ), it is important that a viable and sustainable approach to degrade such compounds is developed ( Jha et al, 2015 ). Use of physical and chemical approaches has proven to be costly ( Gangola et al, 2019 ).…”

Sustainable agriculture remains a focus for many researchers, in an effort to minimize environmental degradation and climate change. The use of plant growth promoting microorganisms (PGPM) is a hopeful approach for enhancing plant growth and yield. However, the technology faces a number of challenges, especially inconsistencies in the field. The discovery, that microbial derived compounds can independently enhance plant growth, could be a step toward minimizing shortfalls related to PGPM technology. This has led many researchers to engage in research activities involving such compounds. So far, the findings are promising as compounds have been reported to enhance plant growth under stressed and non-stressed conditions in a wide range of plant species. This review compiles current knowledge on microbial derived compounds, taking a reader through a summarized protocol of their isolation and identification, their relevance in present agricultural trends, current use and limitations, with a view to giving the reader a picture of where the technology has come from, and an insight into where it could head, with some suggestions regarding the probable best ways forward.
