Efficient Biodegradation of Multiple Aryloxyphenoxypropionate Herbicides by Corynebacterium sp. Z-1 and the Proposed Degradation Mechanism

Esterases are crucial for aryloxyphenoxypropionate herbicide (AOPP) biodegradation. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of AOPP biodegradation by esterases are poorly understood. In the current work,
