Abstract
For decades, reclamation of pesticide contaminated sites has been a challenging avenue. Due to increasing agricultural demand, the application of synthetic pesticides could not be controlled in its usage, and it has now adversely impacted the soil, water, and associated ecosystems posing adverse effects on human health. Agricultural soil and pesticide manufacturing sites, in particular, are one of the most contaminated due to direct exposure. Among various strategies for soil reclamation, ecofriendly microbial bioremediation suffers inherent challenges for large scale field application as interaction of microbes with the polluted soil varies greatly under climatic conditions. Methodically, starting from functional or genomic screening, enrichment isolation; functional pathway mapping, production of tensioactive metabolites for increasing the bioavailability and bio-accessibility, employing genetic engineering strategies for modifications in existing catabolic genes to enhance the degradation activity; each step-in degradation study has challenges and prospects which can be addressed for successful application. The present review critically examines the methodical challenges addressing the feasibility for restoring and reclaiming pesticide contaminated sites along with the ecotoxicological risk assessments. Overall, it highlights the need to fine-tune the available processes and employ interdisciplinary approaches to make microbe assisted bioremediation as the method of choice for reclamation of pesticide contaminated sites.

Abstract
Synthetic chemicals including organochlorine pesticides pose environment and health hazard due to persistent and bio-accumulation property. Majority of them are recognized as endocrine disruptors. Fungi are ubiquitous in nature and employs efficient enzymatic machinery for the biotransformation and degradation of toxic, recalcitrant pollutants. This review critically discusses the organochlorine biotransformation process mediated by fungi and highlights the role of enzymatic system responsible for biotransformation, especially distribution of dehalogenase homologs among fungal classes. It also explores the potential use of fungal derived biomaterial, mainly chitosan as an adsorbing biomaterial for pesticides and heavy metals removal. Further, prospects of employing fungus to over-come the existing bioremediation limitations are discussed. The study highlights the potential scope of utilizing fungi for initial biotransformation purposes, preceding final biodegradation by bacterial species under environmental conditions.

Abstract
The effect of a 2-aminoanthraquinone-graphene oxide (AQ-GO) composite on the anaerobic dechlorination and degradation of chloroanilines by an enriched bacterial consortium was investigated. The results showed that the maximal degradation efficiency of 20 mg/L 2-chloroaniline (2-CA) reached 91.4% at a dose of 20 mg/L AQ-GO in 30 d. Moreover, the pseudo-first-order rate constant of 2-CA degradation in the AQ-GO-mediated system was 2.9-fold higher than those in AQ- and GO-mediated systems alone. During this process, a synergetic effect between AQ and GO was observed, which was attributed to the increased intracellular and extracellular electron transfer pathways. GC-MS analysis showed that 2-CA could be degraded to hexanoic acid and ultimately mineralized to CO2. Illumina MiSeq sequencing revealed that additional AQ-GO significantly increased the relative abundance of Firmicutes. Further analysis showed that the populations of the genera Oscillospira, unclassified Lactobacillales, unclassified Veillonellaceae and Ruminococcus exhibited positive correlations with the rate constant of 2-CA degradation and the dehydrogenase activity of bacterial consortium. These findings indicated that AQ-GO promoted the enrichment of functional bacteria and increased the bacterial activity, resulting in the enhanced dechlorination and degradation of 2-chloroaniline.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to know the biodiversity of total microorganisms contained in two polychlorinated biphenyl-contaminated aged soils and evaluate the strategies of bioaugmentation and biostimulation to biodegrade the biphenyls. Besides, the aerobic cultivable microorganisms were isolated and their capacity to biodegrade a commercial mixture of six congeners of biphenyls was evaluated. Biodiversity of contaminated soils was dominated by Actinobacteria (42.79%) and Firmicutes (42.32%) phyla, and others in smaller proportions such as Proteobacteria, Gemmatimonadetes, Chloroflexi, and Bacteroidetes. At the genus level, the majority of the population did not exceed 7% of relative abundance, including Bacillus, Achromobacter, Clostridium, and Pontibacter. Furthermore, four autochthonous bacterial cultures were possible isolates from the soils, which were identified by partial sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene, as Bacillus sp., Achromobacter sp., Pseudomonas stutzeri, and Bacillus subtilis, which were used for the bioaugmentation process. The bioaugmentation and biostimulation strategies achieved a biodegradation of about 60% of both soils after 8 weeks of the process; also, the four isolates were used as mixed culture to biodegrade a commercial mix of six polychlorinated biphenyl congeners; after 4 weeks of incubation, the concentration decreased from 0.5 mg/L to 0.23 mg/L.

Abstract
Rhamnolipid produced from a Lysinibacillus sphaericus IITR51 was characterized and its ability for dissolution of hydrophobic pesticides were evaluated. L. sphaericus produced 1.6 g/L of an anionic biosurfactant that reduced surface tension from 72 N/m to 52 N/m with 48% emulsification index. The biosurfactant was found stable over a wide range of pH (4.0-10.0), temperature (4-100 °C), salt concentration (2-14%) and was identified as rhamnolipid. At the concentration of 90 mg/L rhamnolipid showed enhanced dissolution of α-, β-endosulfan, and γ-hexachlorocyclohexane up to 7.2, 2.9, and 1.8 folds, respectively. The bacterium utilized benzoic acid, chlorobenzene, 3- and 4-chlorobenzoic acid as sole source of carbon and was found resistant to arsenic, lead and cadmium. Furthermore, the isolated biosurfactant showed antimicrobial activities against different pathogenic bacteria. The results obtained indicate the usefulness of rhamnolipid for enhanced dissolution and thereby increasing the bioavailability.

Abstract
A novel bacterial strain S36T was isolated from the deep-sea sediment collected from Pacmanus hydrothermal field, Manus Basin. The strain was Gram-stain-positive, aerobic, rod-shaped, endospore-forming, and motile. It was able to grow at 16-50 °C, pH 6.0-10.0, and in the presence of 0-11 % (w/v) NaCl. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA gene sequence indicated that strain S36T was a member of genus Bacillus and shares the highest sequence identity with Bacillus herbersteinensis D-1,5aT (97.0 %). The value of DNA-DNA hybridization between strain S36T and B. herbersteinensis D-1,5aT was 22.8 %. The cell wall diagnostic diamino acid of strain S36T was meso-diaminopimelic acid and the polar lipid profile of strain S36T contained diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylglycerol, and phosphatidylethanolamine. The predominant respiratory quinine was MK-7. The major cellular fatty acids were iso-C15 : 0 and anteiso-C15 : 0. The genomic DNA G+C content of strain S36T was 43.0 mol%. On the basis of phylogenetic analysis, DNA-DNA hybridization, and phenotypic characteristics, it was concluded that strain S36T represents a novel species of the genus Bacillus, for which the name Bacillus iocasae sp. nov. was proposed. The type strain is S36T (=KCTC 33864T=DSM 104297T=CGMCC 1.16030T).

Cell-wall amino acids were l-alanine, d-alanine, d-glutamic acid and meso-diaminopimelic acid. The genomic DNA G+C content of strains JC247T and JC248 was 48.2 and 48.1 mol%, respectively. Both strains were closely related with mean DNA–DNA hybridization >90 %. 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis of both strains indicated that they are members of the genus Bacillus within the family Bacillaceae of the phylum Firmicutes. Both strains had a 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity of 96.93 % with Bacillus firmus NCIMB 9366T and < 96.92 % with other members of the genus Bacillus. Sequence similarity between strain JC247T and JC248 was 100 %. Distinct morphological, physiological and genotypic differences from previously described taxa support the classification of strains JC247T and JC248 as representatives of a novel species of the genus Bacillus, for which the name Bacillus
crescens sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is JC247T ( = KCTC 33627T = LMG 28608T).

Abstract
A Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, endospore-forming bacterium (designated strain CC-Bw-5T) was isolated from chopped tomato stems. The isolate grew at 20–40 °C, pH 6.0–8.0 and tolerated 6 % (w/v) NaCl. The most closely related strains in terms of 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity were Bacillus isabeliae (95.3 %) and Bacillus oleronius (95.3 %). The G+C content of the genomic DNA was 37.2 ± 3.6 mol%. Strain CC-Bw-5T was determined to possess C16 : 0, iso-C14 : 0, iso-C15 : 0, anteiso-C15 : 0 and iso-C16 : 0 as predominant fatty acids. The polar lipid profile consisted of predominant amounts of diphosphatidylglycerol, and moderate-to-trace amounts of phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, two unidentified glycolipids, an unidentified phospholipid and an unidentified phosphoglycolipid. The cell-wall peptidoglycan contained meso-diaminopimelic acid; menaquinone (MK-7) was the predominant respiratory quinone. According to distinct phylogenetic, phenotypic and chemotaxonomic features, strain CC-Bw-5T is proposed to represent a novel species within the genus Bacillus for which the name Bacillus lycopersici sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is CC-Bw-5T ( = BCRC 80623T = JCM 19140T).
