This project investigates how certain bacteria degrade isoprene, a significant climate-active compound emitted by plants. By understanding the microbial processes involved, the project aims to enhance knowledge of isoprene's biogeochemical cycle and its ecological impacts.
Isoprene is a very important climate-active biogenic volatile organic compound with both global warming and cooling effects.
Globally, terrestrial plants emit huge amounts (~500-750 million tonnes) of isoprene per year.
This is approximately the same quantity as methane released to the amosphere.
Isoprene emissions are predicted to rise due to global warming and increased use of isoprene-emitting trees (oil palm, poplar) for biofuel production but almost nothing is known about its biogeochemical…
