Triazine herbicides are among the most commonly used pesticide worldwide. Moreover, they are ubiquitous soil and water contaminants. Atrazine, simazine, and terbuthylazine removal from environment depends on abiotic photolysis and hydrolysis and above all biotic degradation; only the latter is able to mineralize these herbicides. The presence of an abundant and varied microbial community is a necessary prerequisite for a prompt and effective triazine elimination from contaminated soil and water. Degradation rates can be highly variable, depending on the history of the herbicide treatment and on site specific characteristics e.g., soil depth, texture, mineralogy, organic carbon OC content, and pH . Several microorganisms able to remove atrazine from soil and water have been identified and can be used for bioremediation bioaugmentation and biostimulation purposes. They comprise prokaryotic cells and fungi which can use triazines for growth catabolic degradation or transform these herbicides by cometabolism. Some plants can partially degrade and detoxify triazines, however the effectiveness of phytoremediation in removal of triazines is hampered by their intrinsic toxic effects they act on photosynthesis and glycogenesis, inhibiting the photosystem II and depends on a plant capability to resist to its biocide effect and to form synergic interactions with microorganisms Pesticide in Soils occurrence, fate, control and remediation.
