0337208 Schnoor The degradation of environmental contaminants by the combined action of plants and microbes has been recognized as a promising bioremediation appraoch but is underinvestigated. In particular, the contribution of endophytic bacteria is largely unexplored. The investigators identified a neat system to explore the contributions of an endophytic bacterium to the degradation of energetic compounds. The proposed research effort is likely to provide exciting new results and insights into contaminant degradation by a plant-microbe interaction. Hypothesis 2 appropriately addresses key questions and the objectives are likely to produce meaningful results.

0337208通过植物和微生物的共同作用降解环境污染物已被公认为是一种很有前途的生物修复方法，但研究不足。特别是，内生细菌的贡献在很大程度上还没有被探索。研究人员确定了一个简洁的系统，以探索内生细菌对含能化合物降解的贡献。拟议的研究工作可能会提供令人兴奋的新结果，并对植物-微生物相互作用的污染物降解提供见解。假设2恰当地解决了关键问题，目标很可能产生有意义的结果。
