Importance: The degradation of borneol in a soil microorganism through a camphor degradation pathway is reported in this study. We also report a microbial borneol dehydrogenase. The k and k/K values of lavender BDH are about 1,800-fold and 500-fold lower, respectively, than those of TCU-HL1 BDH. The indigenous borneol- and camphor-degrading strain isolated, Pseudomonas sp. strain TCU-HL1, reminds us of the time 100 years ago when Taiwan was the major producer of natural camphor in the world.
