    Author: el-Deeb BA, Soltan SM, Ali AM, Ali KA.
    Journal: Folia Microbiol (Praha); 2000; 45(3):211-6. PubMed ID: 11271802.
    Abstract:
    A strain of bacteria able to detoxicate the herbicide diuron in pure culture was isolated from sites contaminated with different urea herbicides. Diuron was used as a sole source of carbon and energy by this isolate which is a Gram-negative, aerobic, rod-shaped bacterium with a single polar flagellum, and grows at 40 degrees C. The strain has been identified as Pseudomonas sp.
