Sulfosulphuron-degrading fungus was isolated by enrichment technique from
the sulfosulphuron-contaminated soil of wheat rhizosphere. To assess the
biodegradation potential of isolated Trichoderma sp., minimal potato dextrose
agar broth with different levels of sulfosulphuron (up to 2 g l 1) was evaluated
in the growth and biotransformation experiments. ESI LC-MS/MS analysis revealed the presence of degradation products 2-amino-4,6-dimethoxypyrimidine (I) and 2-ethylsulfonyl imidazo(1,2-a) pyridine-3-
sulfonamide-2-ethylsulfonyl imidazo(1,2-a) pyridine-3-sulfonamide (II)
indicating the cleavage of the urea bridge and the presence of the by-product N-
(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)urea (III) indicating the degradation of
sulfonylamide linkage. Two other metabolites, N-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-
yl)-N’-hydroxyurea (IV) and N, N’-bis(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)urea (V),
were also identified. From the previous reports, it was found that the
degradation of sulfonyl urea herbicides took place through the chemical
degradation of the sulfonylurea bridge followed by microbial degradation.
During this investigation, Trichoderma sp. grew well with and degraded
sulfosulphuron via both the decarboxylation on the sulphonyl urea bridge and
the hydrolytic cleavage of the sulfonylamide linkage as demonstrated by the
formation of metabolites. Trichoderma is nonphytopathogenic in nature, and
some species of it restrict the growth of soil-dwelling phytopathogens.
Therefore, it is a promising candidate for the decontamination of soil from
sulfosulphuron residues.
