Bacterial Siderophore as a Plant Growth Promoter

Abstract

Amongst the imperative microelements in soil environment iron is usually copious for all life forms. Despite of its abundance, availability is limited due to low solubility of the dominant Fe3+ in soil. The divalent state can be oxidized to the trivalent state and it is precipitated in soil in the form of oxide or hydroxides. So plant cannot take up this iron as a source of micronutrient . Some bacteria have the capability to produce low molecular weight (500–1000 dt) iron chelating compound, called Siderophore. In nature, different types of siderophore such as Hydroxymate, Catecholates etc. are produced by different bacteria. Siderophore can chelate the insoluble form of iron by the mechanism of mineralization and sequestration and make it available to the plant for their growth and development. Moreover, siderophore producing bacteria have the capability to inhibit the different types of phytopathogens and can be used as a potential bio-control agent as well. So, siderophore producing plant growth promoting rhizobacterial isolates can be very effective for enriching the soil fertility and yield of agricultural crops. This chapter will highlight on different siderophore producing soil bacteria and their role in sustainable agriculture.
