Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a marine bacterium and an application thereof, in particular to a Paenibacillus sp. WH-2 and an application thereof in degrading metolachlor and 2-methyl-6-ethylaniline (MEA), belonging to the technical field of microorganisms. Background Art

[0002] Isopropylamine is a chloroacetamide selective herbicide with a molecular formula of C 15 H 22 ClNO 2 Due to its broad spectrum, high efficiency and strong selectivity, isopropylamine is widely used in dryland crops, vegetable crops, orchards and rice transplanting fields.

[0003] 2-Methyl-6-ethylaniline (MEA) is an intermediate in the synthesis of chloroacetamides such as isopropylamine and acetochlor. It is also an important metabolite of the photolysis, hydrolysis and biodegradation of chloroacetamides. It can exist and accumulate in organisms for a long time in the natural environment, and is highly toxic, causing harm to organisms and human health.

[0004] Amide herbicides are frequently detected in the marine environment, indicating that their pollution has spread to the marine ecological environment.

[0005] The toxicity of amide herbicides to aquatic animals mainly manifests as teratogenicity, lethality, and effects on enzyme activity, and the toxicity to aquatic plants mainly manifests as reduction of plant cell biomass, interference with cell division, inhibition of photosynthesis, etc. The potential ecological risks to the marine environment caused by the large-scale use of amide herbicides cannot be ignored. Chloroacetamide herbicides are chemically stable and can exist in the marine environment and marine organisms for a long time. Isopropylamine and MEA degrade slowly in the environment. Among them, the hydrolysis half-life of isopropylamine in summer seawater is 67 days and the non-biodegradation half-life is 50 days. In winter seawater, the hydrolysis half-life is 277 days and the non-biodegradation half-life is 193 days. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a fast, efficient and safe method for remediating chloroacetamide herbicide pollution in the marine environment.

[0006] Patent application CN116042443A discloses an anaerobic degradation strain (Trichococcus sp. SRB-2), which is effective for the degradation of 20 mg·L -1 The anaerobic degradation half-life of isopropylamine was 2.0 days, and the degradation of MEA by this strain was not involved.

[0007] The existing document "Isolation, Identification and Degradation Characteristics of Isopropylamine-Degrading Strain Y4-6" (Master's thesis of Nanjing Agricultural University, Dong Yang, 2013) discloses a strain of Pseudoxanthomonas sp. that can degrade isopropylamine, but does not involve the degradation of MEA by this strain.

[0008] It can be seen that among the existing pesticide-degrading microorganisms, there is no strain that can degrade isopropylamine and MEA at the same time. Summary of the invention

[0009] In order to solve the shortcomings of the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a marine bacterium that can simultaneously degrade isopropylamine and MEA and has high degradation efficiency and is adaptable to a wide range of salinities.

[0010] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0011] Paenibacillus contaminans WH-2, whose Latin name is Paenibacillus contaminans WH-2, is deposited in the General Microbiology Center of China Microorganism Culture Collection Administration. The deposit date is April 10, 2024, the deposit number is CGMCC No.30299, and the depository address is Beijing, China.

[0012] The application of the aforementioned Paenibacillus sp. WH-2 in the degradation of isopropylamine and 2-methyl-6-ethylaniline.

[0013] The invention is beneficial in that the Paenibacillus sp. WH-2 provided by the invention is separated and screened from marine shellfish in a sea area polluted by metolachlor. The strain is adaptable to a wide range of salinities, can efficiently degrade metolachlor and MEA, and has a highly efficient bioremediation effect on a marine environment (including seawater and marine sediments) polluted by metolachlor and MEA. The strain is used to treat marine shellfish polluted by metolachlor (at a concentration of 50 mg·L -1 ) and MEA (concentration of 50 mg·L -1 ) after 7 days of treatment with seawater contaminated by isopropylamine and MEA, the biodegradation rates reached 91.6% and 78.9%, respectively, and the degradation half-lives were 2.52 days and 3.56 days, respectively. After 7 days of treatment with the strain in marine sediments contaminated by isopropylamine (concentration of 50 mg / kg) and MEA (concentration of 50 mg / kg), the biodegradation rates of isopropylamine and MEA reached 87.3% and 73.5%, respectively, and the degradation half-lives were 3.06 days and 4.39 days, respectively.

[0039] Compared with other plates, plate 2 had more types of colonies and a moderate number. Multiple single colonies with different morphologies and colors were picked from plate 2 and streaked three times to obtain purified strains. The dominant strain (with larger colony diameter, regular morphology and edges, and smooth surface with protrusions) was selected and recorded as WH-2.

[0040] Metolachlor and MEA were added to the modified LB medium at the same time, and the concentrations of both metolachlor and MEA were 100 mg·L -1 The strain WH-2 was inoculated into the modified LB medium supplemented with isopropylamine and MEA and then grown at 150 r·min -1 The strain was cultured at 30°C on a shaker for 24 h and then preserved in 30% glycerol (stored at -70°C) as a backup strain.
