A tropical soil Actinomycete, Gordonia amicalis HS-11, has been previously demonstrated to degrade unsaturated and saturated hydrocarbons (squalene and n-hexadecane, respectively) in an effective manner. In present study, G. amicalis HS-11 degraded 92.85 ± 3.42% of the provided diesel oil [1% (v/v)]
The genus Gordonia includes variedly pigmented aerobic, non-motile, non-sporulating Gram positive (sometimes variable) coccoid forms and rods. Different isolates display distinguishing physiological traits and biochemical properties that are significant in remediation applications. Strains
