The paper shows that cyanobacterial siderophore cyanochelin B is used by distant heterotrophs under iron limitation, supporting microbial interactions in soil crust ecosystems.

The paper shows that a pseudogenization in the cntQ gene alters metal uptake specificity in Yersinia species, shifting from iron to zinc.

This study uses microscopy to examine interactions between Pseudomonas aeruginosa and six opportunistic pathogens, revealing a range of ecological interactions from mutualism to antagonism.
