Layered intrusions host some of the world’s most important ore deposits, yet their global distribution, age, and petrogenesis remain poorly known. Here we provide an update on our current understanding and highlight some key outstanding research questions, notably on the potential importance of reactive flow. We present some preliminary data on water contents of Bushveld orthopyroxenes from which we calculated the water contents of the magma. The analysed Bushveld rocks, including the Merensky Reef, crystallised from relatively water-poor magma, similar to many other continental basalts.

Abstract A description is provided for Phakopsora gossypii. Information is included on the disease caused by the organism, its transmission, geographical distribution, and hosts. HOSTS: On Gossypium acuminatum, G. arboreum, G. aridium, G. barbadense, G. brasiliense, G. herbaceum, G. mexicanum, G. microcarpum, Gossypium sp. (cult.), Azanza garckeana and Thespesia populnea. DISEASE: Cotton rust. Confined to the growing tissues, chiefly the leaves and spreading from the older parts to the new leaves as rapidly as they are formed causing premature defoliation. The attack is severe on weak plants. GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION: Africa (Agalega Is. (near Mauritius), Congo, Ghana, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Mauritius, Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Somalia, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda); Asia (Burma, Cambodia, Ceylon, China, Fiji, Formosa, India, Java, New Guinea, New Caledonia, Philippines, Thailand); North America (Bermuda, U.S.A.); Central America and West Indies (Cuba, Dominican Republic, Grenada, Haiti, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, St. Vincent, Trinidad); South America (Brazil, British Guiana, Colombia, Ecuador, Venezuela). (CMI Map 258, 1952, Herb IMI and Literature) TRANSMISSION: Airborne urediospores account for the spread of the rust.
