Iron Chelating Agent (Siderophore) From Bacillus altitudinis

The book has been planned according to the increasing attention in research on agricultural scientist and biologist. Siderophore chelates iron and supply to bacterial cell by outer membrane receptors. It gives an extensive but brief coverage about the research on siderophore and their derivative which have large application in agriculture as to increase soil fertility and bio-control for fungal pathogen. Interest in this field is always up to date and new siderophores are found with new roles and applications. The present book elaborates the isolation, identification and agricultural application of siderophore. The present book elaborates the uses of different types of siderophores promote the growth of several plant species and increase their yield by enhancing the Fe uptake to plants in the field of agricultural. Following an introduction to the structure, functions and regulation of bacterial siderophores, several chapters focus on siderophores obtained from bacillus spp. The bacteria bacillus genus is conspicuous for their antibiotics, insecticides, and spores, but their siderophores have not been thoroughly invest.
