It brings iron molecules into bacterial cells for use in a variety of metabolic processes, with applications in agriculture, medicine, industry, and the environment. In this study, 22 bacteria were isolated and screened for siderophore production from maize field soil. Seven of the 22 bacterial isolates showed discrete zones of orange colour, indicating siderophore production.
