Overview of different o-xylene degradation pathways in bacteria. Monooxygenation of the methyl group and subsequent oxidations in Rhodococcus sp. strain B3 (route A); dioxygenation and subsequent dehydrogenation of the aromatic ring in Rhodococcus sp. strain DK17 (route B); two successive monooxygenation reactions of the aromatic ring in P. stutzeri strain OX1 (route C1 and C2). Dashed arrow indicates a spontaneous dehydration
