Abstract
Within the past few years, interest in fluorescent pseudomonads has considerably increased, some of these bacteria found in the plant rhizo-sphere having been shown to participate actively in plant growth promotion or plant disease protection for a large variety of crops (Geels and Schippers, 1983; Kloepper et al., 1980; Scher and Baker, 1980; Scher and Baker, 1982). Iron nutrition is suspected to play an important role in both phenomena, and indeed, the knowledge of the iron uptake mechanisms occurring in the fluorescent pseudomonads is an important step in the understanding of the relationships existing between plants and their microflora.
