This study aims to characterize and optimize the production of siderophores produced by Pseudomonas monteilii strain MN759447 and investigate its antagonism toward fungi associated with mortality in Dalbergia sissoo plantation forests. Siderophores, which are iron-chelating compounds, play a crucial role in plant growth under iron-limiting conditions. The research involved assessing the production conditions of siderophores, which include parameters such as temperature, pH, and iron concentration. Furthermore, the biological efficacy of the produced siderophores against specific fungal pathogens was evaluated. The results indicated that the optimized conditions for maximal siderophore production significantly enhanced the compound's effectiveness in inhibiting fungal growth, suggesting a potential application in biocontrol strategies for managing phytopathogenic fungi. The findings contribute to understanding the role of microbial siderophores in agricultural practices and suggest new avenues for their application in sustainable pest management. Overall, this study highlights the importance of microbial interactions in ecology and agriculture, addressing a gap in research on the functional properties of siderophores in relation to plant health and productivity.
