The competence-provoking factor produced by the highly transformable group H streptococcus, strain Challis, was used to provoke efficient transformability in the poorly transformable group H streptococcus, strain Wicky. Transformations to streptomycin resistance were carried out with C14-labelled DNA which was extracted from bacteria fed with thymidine-2-C14.When cultures of strain Wicky were grown in Difco brain–heart infusion broth, supplemented with serum, and treated with competence factor and deoxyribonucleic acid, 25 to 40% of viable units were transformed while no transformation occurred without the factor. At the same time, the incorporation of C14 into cells treated with competence factor was higher than incorporation of C14 into untreated cells.Crude preparations of the competence factor had a retarding effect on growth of the streptococcus, irrespective of whether DNA was added.

Distribution of organic matter and effect of wetland types and pH on organic matter were studied in sediment of lakeside belt in east Dongting Lake according to taking 56 samples from surface to 20cm and 52 samples from 20cm to 40cm. The results showed that the average content of organic matter was 15.40g/kg from surface to 20cm and 12.02g/kg from 20cm to 40cm in sediment of lakeside belt in east Dongting Lake. Spatial distribution of organic matter could be expressed as middle variation. Wetland types were classed into silt beach, lake marsh beach and reed beach in Dongting Lake region and influenced distribution of organic matter because of difference variance on hydraulic dynamics condition and retarding effect of vegetation on water flow velocity. Order of organic matter content in sediment was the lake marsh beach > reed beach > silt beach in 0-20cm and 20-40cm layers in lakeside belt in east Dongting Lake. Organic matter contents decreased in turn from 0-20cm to 20-40cm in lake marsh and reed beaches and increased in silt beaches. Values of pH in sediment were slightly alkaline in whole studied region. Negative correlation was established between organic matter content and pH value. The results will provide base data and science reference for controlling and recovery of sediment pollution in east Dongting Lake.
