Direct Heme Uptake by Phytoplankton-Associated <italic toggle="yes">Roseobacter</italic> Bacteria
ABSTRACT Iron is an essential micronutrient and can limit the growth of both marine phytoplankton and heterotrophic bacterioplankton. In this study, we investigated the molecular basis of heme transport, an organic iron acquisition pathway, in phytoplankton-associated Roseobacter bacteria and explor...
