Siderophores are small molecular weight iron scavengers that are mainly produced by
bacteria, fungi, and plants. Recently, they have attracted increasing attention because of …

Siderophores are organic compounds with low molecular masses that are produced by
microorganisms and plants growing under low iron conditions. The primary function of these …

Siderophores are small organic molecules produced by microorganisms under iron-limiting
conditions which enhance the uptake of iron to the microorganisms. In environment, the …

Siderophores are small molecular weight extracellular organic compounds secreted by
microorganisms under iron-starved conditions, used by them to chelate and solubilize iron …

Siderophores are secondary metabolites produced by different organisms in order to
scavenge iron from their surrounding environment making this essential element available …

Iron is one of the major limiting factors and essential nutrients of microbial life. Since in
nature it is not readily available in the preferred form, microorganisms produce small high …

Phytoremediation holds promise for in situ treatment of heavy metal contaminated soils.
Recently, the benefits of combining siderophore-producing bacteria (SPB) with plants for …

Siderophores are low molecular weight, iron-chelating ligands produced by nearly all
microorganisms. Fungi synthesize a wide range of hydroxamate siderophores. This review …

Rhizosphere and endophytic bacteria are well known producers of siderophores, organic
compounds that chelate ferric iron (Fe 3+), and therefore play an important role in plant …

Siderophores are synthesized and secreted by many bacteria, yeasts, fungi, and plants for
Fe (III) chelation. A variety of plant-growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) colonize the …
