A limitation to the use of bioremediation for the decontamination of atrazine-polluted sites is the fact that the presence of preferential nitrogen sources, such as those used for fertilization of agricultural soils often inhibits the degradative pathway, resulting in low degradation rates. We have characterized this phenomenon in the model strain Pseudomonas sp. ADP. In this organism, atrazine degradation is nitrogen-repressed both in cultures and in so
