Abstract excerpt
Desferrioxamines (DF's) are siderophores produced by some groups of bacteria. Previously, we discovered that DFE, produced by Streptomyces griseus, induced divergent developmental phenotypes in various Streptomyces isolates. In this study, we isolated bacteria whose phenotype was affected by the presence of 0.1 mM DFB from soil samples, and studied their phylogenetic position via 16 S rRNA gene-based analysis....
