Polyphasic approach of bacterial classification — An overview of recent advances
Om Prakash,Mansi Verma,Pooja Sharma,Manish Kumar,Kirti Kumari,Amit Singh,Hansi Kumari,Simran Jit,Sunil Gupta,Monisha Khanna,Rup Lal +10 more
TL;DR: Current techniques enable microbiologists to decipher the natural phylogenetic relationships between microbes and this approach is currently the most popular choice for classifying bacteria.
Evaluation of hexachlorocyclohexane contamination from the last lindane production plant operating in India.
Simran Jit,Mandeep Dadhwal,Hansi Kumari,Swati Jindal,Jasvinder Kaur,Pushp Lata,Neha Niharika,Devi Lal,Nidhi Garg,Sanjay Kumar Gupta,Pooja Sharma,Kiran Bala,Ajaib Singh,John Vijgen,Roland Weber,Rup Lal +15 more
TL;DR: The contamination levels in ground and river water suggest significant run-off from the dumped HCH wastes and contamination of drinking water resources and the extent of dumping urgently needs to be assessed regarding the risks to human and ecosystem health.

Proposal of biostimulation for hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)-decontamination and characterization of culturable bacterial community from high-dose point HCH-contaminated soils.
Mandeep Dadhwal,Amit Singh,Om Prakash,Sunil Gupta,Kirti Kumari,Pankaj Sharma,Simran Jit,Mansi Verma,Christof Holliger,Rup Lal +9 more
TL;DR: Aims: to locate a high‐dose point hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)‐contaminated site, to identify HCH‐degrading bacteria in it and assay H CH‐decontamination by biostimulation.

Sphingobium chinhatense sp. nov., a hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH)-degrading bacterium isolated from an HCH dumpsite.
TL;DR: The results of DNA-DNA hybridization and morphological and biochemical tests clearly allowed phenotypic and genotypic differentiation of strain IP26(T) from recognized species of the genus Sphingobium.

Pseudomonas sp. to Sphingobium indicum: a journey of microbial degradation and bioremediation of Hexachlorocyclohexane
Rup Lal,Mandeep Dadhwal,Kirti Kumari,Pooja Sharma,Ajaib Singh,Hansi Kumari,Simran Jit,Sanjay Kumar Gupta,Aeshna Nigam,Devi Lal,Mansi Verma,Jaspreet Kaur,Kiran Bala,Swati Jindal +13 more
TL;DR: Among all the bacterial strains isolated so far, Sphingobium indicum B90A that was isolated from HCH treated rhizosphere soil appears to have a better potential for HCH degradation, based on studies on the organization of lin genes and degradation ability of B 90A.
