Biotransformation of the pentahydroxy flavone quercetin by Rhizobium loti and Bradyrhizobium strains (Lotus)

Lotus rhizobia catabolized quercetin in an arabinose-based medium via a novel form of C-ring cleavage, yielding phloroglucinol and protocatechuic acid. Conservation of the A and B rings of the flavone suggests that a chalcone could be formed as a transient intermediate
