Preliminary antibacterial metabolite production screening unveiled that B. amyloliquefaciens
MTCC 12,713 associated with the intertidal red alga Kappaphycus alverezii exhibited …

Bacteria can migrate in groups of flagella‐driven cells over semisolid surfaces. This
coordinated form of motility is called swarming behavior. Swarming is associated with …

The genus Shewanella encompasses a diverse group of Gram negative, primarily aquatic
bacteria with a remarkable ecological relevance, an outstanding set of metabolic features …

Background Shewanella species are emerging pathogens that can cause severe
hepatobiliary, skin and soft tissue, gastrointestinal, respiratory infections, and bacteremia …

Despite the abundance of iron in nature, iron acquisition is a challenge for life in general
because the element mostly exists in the extremely insoluble ferric (Fe3+) form in oxic …

N‐functionalized amines play important roles in nature and occur, for example, in the
antibiotic vancomycin, the immunosuppressant cyclosporine, the cytostatic actinomycin, the …

Desferrioxamine siderophores are assembled by the nonribosomal-peptide-synthetase-
independent siderophore (NIS) synthetase enzyme DesD via ATP-dependent iterative …

Siderophores have great application potential in metal pollutant remediation because of
