Abstract:As a class of synthetic organic compounds widely used in varieties of industrial products, polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) have attracted increasing attention for the properties of toxicity, bioaccumulation and persistence. In this paper, the phyllospheric yeast strain capable of aerobic degradation of 4-brominated diphenyl ether (BDE-3) was originally isolated from Populus tomentosa. Based on the morphological properties and the ITS sequence analysis, the obtained yeast was identified as Wickerhamomyce… Show more
