Abstract
The residues of acifluorfen present a serious threat to the agricultural environment and sensitive crops. DnrA, a nitroreductase, is an intracellular enzyme that restricts the application of wild-type Bacillus sp. Za in environmental remediation. In this study, two strategies were employed to successfully secrete DnrA in strains SCK6 and Za, and the secretion expression conditions were optimized to achieve rapid degradation of acifluorfen. Under the optimal conditions, the relative activities of the DnrA supernatant from strains SCK6-D and Za-W were 3.06-fold and 3.53-fold higher than that of strain Za, respectively. While all three strains exhibited similar tolerance to different concentrations of acifluorfen, strains SCK6-D and Za-W demonstrated significantly faster degradation efficiency compared to strain Za. Furthermore, the DnrA supernatant from strains SCK6-D and Za-W could effectively reduce the toxicity of acifluorfen on maize and cucumber seedlings. This study provides an effective technical approach for the rapid degradation of acifluorfen.
