Descripción
Bioremediation is an eco-friendly alternative for soil restoration; however, its outcomes are still variable. Different bioremediation strategies were used in a chronically polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-contaminated soil, and no degradation was achieved. This work attempts to study whether the soil bacterial community has the genetic potential for aromatic compound degradation (ACD). While 16S rRNA metabarcoding of that soil showed a predominance of Proteobacteria, shotgun metagenomics indicated that 99.5% of the sequences were taxonomically assigned to Streptomycetales, and almost all genes for ACD were assigned to the latter. As comprehension of the composition and metabolic potential of a soil community can be enhanced by exploring enrichment cultures of that soil, a culture approach followed by a shotgun metagenomic analysis was performed. These enrichment cultures were obtained by sequential transfers with pyrene conducted every 7 days (r-EFP) and every 28 days (k-MSP2). Both r-EFP and k-MSP2 demonstrated the ability to degrade pyrene and the presence of genes related to ACD. While in r-EFP Pseudomonas and Olivibacter were the predominant genera, Mycobacterium, Chitoniphaga, Bacillus, and Pseudoxanthomonas were predominant in k-MSP2. This study demonstrated the soil bacterial community’s potential to degrade PAHs of three and four rings; therefore, exploration of bioremediation strategies aimed at activating this potential would be worthwhile. It was confirmed that shotgun metagenomics may not fully reveal potential bacterial functions when characterizing impacted soil microbiomes. Additionally, culture-based methods complemented and increased the knowledge obtained from culture-independent approaches, demonstrating their utility for bioprospecting PAH degraders and designing microbiome engineering strategies.
