• Biotechnological Applications of Bacterial Endophytes (2014, background): “For example, endophytes have been isolated which degrade explosives [102], herbicides [166], and hydrocarbons [167, 168].”
• Phytoremediation: recent advances in plant-endophytic synergistic interactions (2015, background): “Other genes reported in microbial populations around plants for hydrocarbon degradation are ndoB and phnAc responsible for naphthalene and phenanthrene degradation through naphthalene dioxygenase and phenanthrene dioxygenase, respectively (Phillips et al. 2006, 2008).”
• Plant root exudates impact the hydrocarbon degradation potential of a weathered-hydrocarbon contaminated soil (2012, methodology): “Previous research on the soil used in this study (Phillips et al., 2006, 2008) has shown that over time plants do exert a selective influence on both rhizosphere community structure and population density.”
• Phytoremediation and Plant-Assisted Bioremediation in Soil and Treatment Wetlands: A Review (2015, background): “Studies suggest that these bacteria can be used to complement the metabolic potential of their host plant through direct degradation [61-64] as well as transfer of degradative plasmids to other endophytes [65, 66].”
• Endophytes: a potential resource for biosynthesis, biotransformation, and biodegradation (2011, background): “Other research carried out by Phillips et al. (2008) showed that strain Pseudomonas sp. exhibited alkane hydrocarbon degradation potential, while Brevundimonas and Pseudomonas rhodesiae were associated with increased PAH degradation potential and activity.”
