Abstract: | Iron uptake from ferrated (59Fe) pseudobactin (PSB), a Pseudomonas putida siderophore, by various plant species was studied in nutrient solution culture under short term (10 h) and long term (3 weeks) conditions. In the short term experiments, 59Fe uptake rate from 59FePSB by dicots (peanuts, cotton and sunflower) was relatively low when compared with 59Fe uptake rate from 59FeEDDHA. Iron uptake rate from 59FePSB was pH and concentration dependent, as was the Fe uptake rate from 59FeEDDHA. The rate was about 10 times lower than that of Fe uptake from the synthetic chelate. Results were similar for long term experiments.Monocots (sorghum) in short term experiments exhibited significantly higher uptake rate of Fe from FePSB than from FeEDDHA. In long term experiments, FePSB was less efficient than FeEDDHA as an Fe source for sorghum at pH 6, but the same levels of leaf chlorophyll concentration were obtained at pH 7.3.Fe uptake rates by dicots from the siderophore and FeEDDHA were found to correlate with Fe reduction rates and reduction potentials (E0) of both chelates. Therefore, it is suggested that the reduction mechanism governs the Fe uptake process from PSB by dicots. Further studies will be conducted to determine the role of pH in Fe aquisition from PSB by monocots. |
