Genetic and bacteriophage studies on Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron and related anaerobic strains

- Description: Gram-negative obligately anaerobic bacilli were isolated from faeces on selective media. R plasmid transfer was investigated in mating experiments between 30 anaerobes and between the anaerobes and known donor and recipient E. coli strains. The transfer of R plasmids from E.coli to B.fragilis, Bacteroides spp., Fusobacterium spp. and other faecal obligate anaerobic bacteria was possible after heat treatment of the recipients at 50°C. The anaerobic exconjugants were unstable and were not able to retransfer the ampr marker. A bacteriophage, B1 , specific for the anaerobe B.thetaiotaomicron, was isolated and characterised. The properties of the phage included a variable burst size and the production of many defective phage particles without tails which were not viable. The B.thetaiotaomicron host was able to establish a phage carrier state with B1 phage. Phenol-extracted phage DNA could transfect ca2+-treated B.thetaiotaomicron cells and transfection was not limited to a particular stage in the growth cycle. An obligatory step in the transfection procedure was a 33-fold dilution in broth, allowing replication of the infected cells. Prolonged incubation of treated cells with DNA prior to dilution in broth resulted in a large decrease in phage titre. The application of this transfection system to the development of a transformation system was not successful . Conventional transformation procedures did not yield transformants, and it was not possible to transduce B.thetaiotaomicron with B1 phage. The B.thetaiotaomicron strain used was distinguished by the formation of two distinct morphological variants. Each morphological type gave rise to the other at the same frequency. Environmental conditions other than elevated temperature, had no effect on the segregation frequency. The grey colony variant was not capsulated and was sensitive to B1 phage, whereas the white colony type was encapsulated and was phage-resistant. Another feature of the B.thetaiotaomicron strain was the low incidence of mutants. A second survey of the occurrence of R plasmids in aerobic coliforms from a remote area of the Transkei and from an urban area, was undertaken. An increase in transferable antibiotic resistance was found over the last three years. It can be concluded that this was a result of the use of antibiotics among the human population, since there are no veterinary services in the area and the addition of antibiotics to animal feeds is not practised.

Geology of part of the central Damara belt around the Tumas River, South West Africa

- Description: The investigation covering 1500 square kilometres within the central granite zone of the Damara belt, South West Africa, revealed Pre - Damara (Abbabis) basement unconformably overlain by metasediments of the Damara Supergroup. The term Leeukop member is proposed for basal metaconglomerates of the Nosib Group that immediately overlie the basement augen-gneisses. Augen-gneiss clasts are present within the Leeukop metaconglomerates. The Damara orogeny has only partly affected the Abbabis rocks of the Tumas River Inlier but further to the west the Husab suite of red granites and granite-gneisses, as field and geochemical evidence suggest, were derived syntectonically during the Damara orogeny by reactivation of the pre- Damara basement. Rõssing alaskitic granites represent late stage melts, that were also derived from Pre- Damara basement rocks during orogenesis, which accumulated post-tectonically in structural traps at the base of the Khomas Subgroup. Salem granitoids are present in synclinal structures associated with metasediments of the Khomas Subgroup and syntectonic derivation by anatexis during the Damara orogeny is suggested. In the east the differentiated Gawib granitoid stock was emplaced post- tectonically through basement rocks into the Damara metasediments. A deep seated origin is indicated by high crystallisation temperatures (>8500°) obtained from quarternary Qz-An-Ab-Or- H₂0 plots. The metamorphic grade increases westwards from medium grade to high grade. In the east, the metapelites contain andalusite, and coexisting muscovite and quartz. This indicates that temperatures of 6000° at 3,5- 4 kb pressure were attained. In the west, coexisting wollastonite and anorthite in the Khan gneisses indicate pressure- temperature conditions of 720° at 4,5-5 kb. Two tectonic events were responsible for the regional structure. An early F₁ episode produced east- west oriented overturned folds and was followed by an intense F₂ episode of isoclinal folding which is responsible for the dominant northeast - southwest regional fabric. The interference of these folds in the proximity of the underlying basement produced the complex dome and basin structures seen in the central and western parts of the area. An F₃ episode of minor importance was also recognized. The presence of continental basement rocks in this central part of the Damara belt is evidence for formation of the orogen by in-situ deformation rather than continental collision.

- Description: The investigation covering 1500 square kilometres within the central granite zone of the Damara belt, South West Africa, revealed Pre - Damara (Abbabis) basement unconformably overlain by metasediments of the Damara Supergroup. The term Leeukop member is proposed for basal metaconglomerates of the Nosib Group that immediately overlie the basement augen-gneisses. Augen-gneiss clasts are present within the Leeukop metaconglomerates. The Damara orogeny has only partly affected the Abbabis rocks of the Tumas River Inlier but further to the west the Husab suite of red granites and granite-gneisses, as field and geochemical evidence suggest, were derived syntectonically during the Damara orogeny by reactivation of the pre- Damara basement. Rõssing alaskitic granites represent late stage melts, that were also derived from Pre- Damara basement rocks during orogenesis, which accumulated post-tectonically in structural traps at the base of the Khomas Subgroup. Salem granitoids are present in synclinal structures associated with metasediments of the Khomas Subgroup and syntectonic derivation by anatexis during the Damara orogeny is suggested. In the east the differentiated Gawib granitoid stock was emplaced post- tectonically through basement rocks into the Damara metasediments. A deep seated origin is indicated by high crystallisation temperatures (>8500°) obtained from quarternary Qz-An-Ab-Or- H₂0 plots. The metamorphic grade increases westwards from medium grade to high grade. In the east, the metapelites contain andalusite, and coexisting muscovite and quartz. This indicates that temperatures of 6000° at 3,5- 4 kb pressure were attained. In the west, coexisting wollastonite and anorthite in the Khan gneisses indicate pressure- temperature conditions of 720° at 4,5-5 kb. Two tectonic events were responsible for the regional structure. An early F₁ episode produced east- west oriented overturned folds and was followed by an intense F₂ episode of isoclinal folding which is responsible for the dominant northeast - southwest regional fabric. The interference of these folds in the proximity of the underlying basement produced the complex dome and basin structures seen in the central and western parts of the area. An F₃ episode of minor importance was also recognized. The presence of continental basement rocks in this central part of the Damara belt is evidence for formation of the orogen by in-situ deformation rather than continental collision.
