Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2006018025A1] The present invention relates to an observed conversion of the herbicide degradation product 2,6-dichlorobenzamide (BAM) in samples taken from the environment. The invention provides a 2,6-dichlorobenzamide degrading or converting activity, which may form the basis of means and methods of bioremediation of polluting 2,6-dichlorobenzamide in the environment. The invention further provides a method for evaluating the persistance of 2,6-dichlorobenzamide in the environment, a method for obtaining or increasing a 2,6-dichlorobenzamide degrading or converting activity as well as products obtained or obtainable by such a method. The invention further provides a composition comprising an activity according to the invention and uses of such a composition as well as a method for reducing the amount of 2,6-dichlorobenzamide in the environment and a microbial species harbouring the 2,6-dichlorobenzamide degrading or converting activity.
