Detection of siderophores in endophytic bacteria Methylobacterium spp. associated with Xylella fastidiosa subsp pauca

The objective of this work was to study the production of siderophores by endophytic bacteria Methylobacterium spp., which occupy the same ecological niche as Xylella fastidiosa subsp. pauca (Xfp) ...

Evidences of Siderophores Synthesis by Grapevine Xylella fastidiosa, Causal Agent of Pierce's Disease, through Instrumental Approaches

Siderophore molecules from grapevine Xylella fastidiosa were investigated. Such metabolites sequester iron, an essential element, from the host, making them a potential factor of pathogenicty. In a...

Growth and siderophore production of Xylella fastidiosa under iron-limited conditions

In this study, the production of siderophores by Xylella fastidiosa from the citrus bacteria isolate 31b9a5c (FAPESP - ONSA, Brazil) was investigated. The preliminary evidence supporting the existe...

Specific amplification of iron receptor genes in Xylella fastidiosa strains from different hosts

Bacterial production of siderophores may involve specific genes related to nonribosomal peptide and polyketide biosynthesis, which have not been fully identified in the genome of Xylella fastidiosa...

The role of iron in Mycobacterium smegmatis biofilm formation: the exochelin siderophore is essential in limiting iron conditions for biofilm formation but not for planktonic growth

Many species of mycobacteria form structured biofilm communities at liquid-air interfaces and on solid surfaces. Full development of Mycobacterium smegmatis biofilms requires addition of supplement...
