The fate of the genetically modified (GM) Pseudomonas chlororaphis strain 3732 RN-L11 and its transgene (lacZ insert) during composting of chicken manure was studied using plate count and nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods. The detection sensitivity of the nested PCR method was 165 copies of the modified gene per gram of moist compost or soil. Compost microcosms consisted of a 100-g mixture of chicken manure and peat, whereas soil microcosms were 100-g samples of sandy clay loam. Each microcosm was inoculated with 4 × 1010CFU of P. chlororaphis RN-L11. In controlled temperature studies, neither P. chlororaphis RN-L11 nor its transgene could be detected in compost microcosms after incubation temperature was elevated to 45 °C or above for one or more days. In contrast, in the compost microcosms incubated at 23 °C, the target organism was not detected by the plate count method after 6 days, but its transgene was detectable for at least 45 days. In compost bins, the target organism was not recovered from compost microcosms or soil microcosms at different levels in the bins for 29 days. However, the transgene was detected in 8 of the 9 soil microcosms and in only 1 of the 9 compost microcosms. The compost microcosm in which transgene was detected was at the lower level of the bin where temperatures remained below 45 °C. The findings indicated that composting of organic wastes could be used to reduce or degrade heat sensitive GM microorganisms and their transgenes.Key words: composting, genetically modified Pseudomonas strain, transgene, polymerase chain reaction.
