Sphingobium herbicidovorans is a Gram-negative bacterium in the family Sphingomonadaceae, recognized for its ability to degrade phenoxy herbicides such as MCPP and DCPP. It has applications in bioremediation of herbicide-contaminated soils.
Sphingobium scionense is a Gram-negative, aerobic rod first isolated in the Scion research environment in New Zealand. It inhabits forest soils and plant-associated substrates of Oceania. This chemoheterotroph degrades complex aromatic and aliphatic organic compounds in temperate forest soil environments.
