How to select compound for bioremediation by bacteria by its genome analysis?
Kindly refer to this article:https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2018.00820
Hope this will help you decide which compound to select for bioremediation by bacteria using genomics.
Bioremediation is an interplay of three fundamental components including the environment, contaminant, and the organism. So, in principle, the selection of compound(s) to remediate depends largely on the contaminant of interest, not the organism (s). The genes for a particular degradative pathway could only be expressed if the target compound is present in the environment, otherwise, it remains repressed. That is why bioremediation is largely environment-dependent and it is deployed to solve environmental problems, but not microbial.

Although Haruna Yahaya Ismail has interpreted and answered the question very well with his expertise/experience, the question in itself does not make sense.
