It is well-known that deficiency or over exposure to various elements has noticeable effects
on human health. The effect of an element is determined by several characteristics …

Purpose The rationale of this paper is to review the state of the art regarding the biotic and
abiotic reactions that can influence Fe availability in soils. In soil, the management-induced …

Poor iron (F e) availability in soil represents one of the most important limiting factors of
agricultural production and is closely linked to physical, chemical and biological processes …

The ability of bacteria to develop resistance to antimicrobial agents poses problems in the
treatment of numerous bacterial infections. One method to circumvent permeability-mediated …

Members of the SLC11 (NRAMP) family transport iron and other transition-metal ions across
cellular membranes. These membrane proteins are present in all kingdoms of life with a …

Plant growth-promoting bacteria can greatly assist sustainable farming by improving plant
health and biomass while reducing fertilizer use. The plant-microorganism-environment …

Iron is an essential nutrient for most bacteria. Depending on the oxygen available in the
surrounding environment, iron is found in two distinct forms: ferrous (Fe II) or ferric (Fe III) …

Siderophores scavenges Fe+ 3 from the vicinity of the roots of plants, and thus limit the
amount of iron required for the growth of pathogens such as Fusarium oxysporum, Pythium …

In this work, zero valent iron nanoparticles (Fe zero-NPs) and iron oxide nanoparticles (Fe
ox-NPs) were synthesized at the subsurface and surface regions of titanium oxide coatings …

Like many other bacteria, B urkholderia sp. take up iron in its ferric form via siderophore‐
dependent transporters. We observed that mutant strains of B. cenocepacia H 111 unable to …
