Metabolic fate of a bacterial siderophore in Arabidopsis thaliana and Pisum sativum in relationship with iron status in plants

2018

Despite its abundance, iron is weakly bioavailable for organisms due to its poor solubility in soils under aerobic conditions. Therefore, plants and other organisms have evolved mechanisms to efficiently assimilate iron from the soil. Non-grass plants use a strategy (strategy I) based on soil acidification, reduction of the Fe3+ in Fe2+ which incorporated in the roots by iron transporters. We previously showed (Shirley et al., 2011; Vansuyt et al., 2007) that iron nutrition and growth of a strategy I plant could be promoted by the ferric-complex of the pyoverdine (Fe-pvd), a siderophore produced by microorganisms. If pyoverdine was further localized in planta using different immunological t…
