Abstract

Agrochemicals are an integral part of the agricultural ecosystem as it contributes significantly to improving the crop yield through pest management. The chemically synthesized products such as insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides exhibit harmful effects on living organisms and few of them are characterized as resistant to degradation. Besides being persistent in nature, they may leach into groundwater and run off to surface water. Thus, to degrade the persistent agrochemicals, bioremediation with the help of microbes is one of the best options. This approach is environmentally friendly, effective, and less expensive with the least adverse effects. Microbes such as bacteria, actinobacteria, fungi, and cyanobacteria are reported of having the exclusive trait of degradation. The microbial world consumes persistent toxic chemicals as the source of their growth by facilitating the mineralization of those chemicals. This detoxification process is carried out with the help of microbial enzymes. Some efficient and potential bioremediation agents are Bacillus sp., Pseudomonas sp., Arthrobacter sp., Anabaena sp., Leptolyngbya sp., Nostoc sp., Spirulina sp., etc. This chapter discusses the extent of the use of persistent agrochemicals and key biodegradation pathways. The chapter also discusses on the advantages and disadvantages of microbial remediation and the scope of commercial utilization of microbes for agrochemical degradation.
