Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth and productivity and, among other
micronutrients, is the one required in higher amounts. In most soils, Fe occurs at relatively …

This article reviews the effectiveness of synthetic Fe-chelates to correct Fe chlorosis. Soil
application of such compounds is usually a more efficient strategy to overcome Fe chlorosis …

In plants, the excess of several heavy metals mimics iron (Fe) deficiency-induced chlorosis,
indicating a disturbance in Fe homeostasis. To examine the level at which heavy metals …

Iron affects the physiology of bacteria in two different ways: as a micronutrient for bacterial
growth and as a catalyst for the formation of hydroxyl radicals. In this study, we used DNA …

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a Gram-negative opportunistic bacterial pathogen that is
refractory to a variety of current antimicrobial therapeutic regimens. Complicating treatment …

Iron chlorosis is a mineral disorder due to low Fe in the soil solution and the impaired plant
uptake mechanism. These effects increased with high pH and bicarbonate buffer. The …

DnaA protein binds bacterial replication origins and it initiates chromosome replication. The
Caulobacter crescentus DnaA also initiates chromosome replication and the C. crescentus …

Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) is a plant species that can express mechanisms of tolerance
to copper (Cu) toxicity. Therefore, the agronomical approach of intercropping system with …

Pseudomonas entomophila L48 is a recently identified entomopathogenic bacterium which,
upon ingestion, kills Drosophila melanogaster, and is closely related to P. putida. The …

Iron (Fe) is a trace nutrient required by nearly all organisms. As a result of the demand for Fe
and the toxicity of non-chelated cytosolic ionic Fe, regulatory systems have evolved to tightly …
