Abstract:
Jāmiʿ at-Tawārīkh ‘Compendium of Chronicles’ is the Qādir ʿAli beg’s historical work written in 1602. The primary source of this work more likely did not reach our days. However, today two lists (St. Petersburg manuscript and Kazan manuscript), three fragments (a fragment from Kyshgary, a fragment from the first London manuscript, and a fragment from the second London manuscript), and two more manuscripts (Paris manuscript and Berlin manuscript) are known as related to the Qādir ʿAli beg’s ‘Compendium of Chronicles’, although the authorship of the last two manuscripts is questionable.The article analyses all currently known lists and fragments of Qādir ʿAli beg’s work. The study did not identify major textological discrepancies among the two lists and three fragments except for some minor differences in spelling. The two lists complement each other and most probably were copied from the same source. The fragments of the work do not carry any additional information from the one present in the lists; hence, they do not carry any textological value. However, the fragments are important evidence of the significance of Qādir ʿAli beg’s work. The location of London manuscripts is of particular interest, raising the question of the appearance of two fragments that are found in the ‘Compendium of Chronicles’ in Britain. A feature of the London manuscripts is the presence in the text of postscripts from the margins of the St. Petersburg manuscript, presented as a concordance of words.

Abstract:
A single leaf may be a valuable witness to an early manuscript that does not otherwise survive, even when it raises as many questions as it answers. Such is the case of the first fragment in a collection of some 217 leaves and fragments of medieval manuscripts owned by the University of Missouri and housed in the Rare Books Department of the Ellis Library on the Columbia, Missouri, campus. This collection, titled Fragmenta Manuscripta, derives largely from that assembled in the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century by John Bagford (d. 1716), an eccentric shoemaker-turned-bookseller. Bagford was, however, not responsible for the first two leaves in the collection. They were added to the collection by the trustees of Archbishop Tenison's School in preparation for sale on 3 June 1861. The first fragment and the second, an Insular leaf of not later than tenth-century date containing grammatical excerpts, had both been removed from the binding of another volume owned by the Tenison Library. That manuscript, now London, British Library, Add. 24193, a continental codex containing the poems of Venantius Fortunatus with replacement quires supplied in two tenth-century English Caroline minuscule hands, has attracted the attention of Anglo-Saxon scholarship, but the early Insular binding fragments removed from it have remained largely unknown.

Abstract:
Using evidence drawn from S. de Ricci and W. J. Wilson’s Census of Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts in the United States and Canada, American auction records, private library catalogues, public exhibition catalogues, and manuscript fragments surviving in American institutional libraries, this article documents nineteenth-century collections of medieval and Renaissance manuscript fragments in North America before ca. 1900. Surprisingly few fragments can be identified, and most of the private collections have disappeared. The manuscript constituents are found in multiple private libraries, two universities (New York University and Cornell University), and one Learned Society (Massachusetts Historical Society). The fragment collections reflect the collecting genres documented in England in the same period, including albums of discrete fragments, grangerized books, and individual miniatures or “cuttings” (sometimes framed). A distinction is drawn between undecorated text fragments and illuminated ones, explained by aesthetic and scholarly collecting motivations. An interest in text fragments, often from binding waste, can be documented from the 1880s.

Abstract:
The article examines some paleographic and codicological aspects of several fragments of the undated manuscript C40 from the Hebrew Collection in the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IOM RAS). This is a codex of Shahin's Musa-name, formed from some different, scattered fragments. Apparently, three large fragments of this manuscript are taken from medieval codices, which were gathered by one person (the so-called “restorer”) in the 19th century. Judging from the results of their comparative and historical analysis, one can suggest some possibilities for dating of each fragment. The author dates these fragments back to the late 15th early 16th centuries C.E. According to her, they were transcribed in the region where the cities of Qum and Kashan are located (the current provinces of Qum and Isfahan in Iran). Unfortunately, it is hardly possible to provide a more accurate localization. However, several dated and previously studied Jewish manuscripts from this period and this area have nearly the same attributes, quality, or characteristics of the writing material and the type of writing, as well as some textual pattern.

Abstract:
A case study on fragments in Greek manuscript collections was conducted at the Center for History and Palaeography of the National Bank of Greece Cultural Foundation. The majority of the manuscripts for the study come from hard-to-reach monastic libraries and were microfilmed by the Center. The study focused on a selection of collections, including the library of the Monastery of Hozoviotissa (Amorgos Island, Cyclades), the Patriarchal library of Alexandria (Egypt), the library of the Monastery of Iviron (Mt. Athos), and a variety of collections from Cyprus. While research is ongoing, the current results show the potential contribution that fragments can make to the study of Medieval Greek manuscripts.

Abstract:
The paper introduces three fragments of an Oirat manuscript of the Sungdui, or Collected Dharani, preserved at the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts. The fragments became part of the collection of the Russian Academy of Sciences in the 18th c., but had not been described until 2022. The manuscript is of special value, as only three other specimens of the Sungdui in Clear Script have been accounted for (these three manuscripts are preserved in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia). The St. Petersburg fragments come from a manuscript that was created between 1748 and 1795, presumably, in the Kalmyk Khanate. The dates were established based on the watermark found on the paper of one of the folios, and an inscription that was left on the same folio by Johannes Jhrig, the first scholar to catalogue the Mongolian and Tibetan collection of the Academy. In this paper, the text of the folios is published along with a commentary on the content and possible origin of the manuscript.

Until recently the manuscript entitled Naran-u Gerel in the collection of St. Petersburg State University was considered to be the only extant catalogue of the 17thc. recension of the Mongolian Kanjur. The article presents a fragment of the Kanjur catalogue discovered among the manuscript fragments from Dzungaria preserved in the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts, Russian Academy of Sciences. Its textual similarity to the Naran-u Gerel and structural proximity to the manuscript copies of the Mongolian Kanjur indicate that having been reflected in more than one catalogue the repertoire and structure of the 17th c. recension were not that random as it was previously represented in Mongolian studies.

Abstract:
While the study of complete sources is very valuable, and has contributed greatly to what is understood of music history, the perspective they contribute is limited because they cannot reveal information about how music and music sources were most often used. The study of functional sources, more probably created for use, allows for more insight into how music was performed and understood, and how such sources were created, used and valued. This study examines twelve fragmentary early sixteenth-century English sources from the Digital Image Archive of Medieval Music (DIAMM) database, constituting a sample of functional music sources in this period. The study of this sampling reveals information about how functional manuscripts were created, used and valued in England during this time period. Some of the fragments contain works with concordances. These concordances are compared using variant comparison, where differences in the versions of the work are considered and weighed. The comparative study of concordances provides insight into the transmission of the versions, scribal and performance culture, as well as into music culture in general. Overall, the study of this sampling of early sixteenth-century functional English sources provides a clearer understanding of the use of accidentals, scribes and scribal culture, performers, performance practice and music culture in England at this time, contributing to the understanding of music history.

Abstract:
Cette recherche se concentre sur les fragments de manuscrits conservés aux Archives d'État de Modène et provenant de l'Archivio Estense. Il a été révélé qu'un nombre significatif de ces fragments proviennent des reliures des volumes qui composent le complexe d'archives de la Maison d'Este, la plus grande collection détenue aux Archives d'État de Modène. Ce fonds d'archives s'étend de 1317 à 1797 et comprend une grande variété de documents en termes de quantité et de types, mais il reste cohérent en raison de son origine dans un seul contexte institutionnel. La thèse commence par fournir une analyse détaillée de l'histoire archivistique de la collection de fragments, traçant ses origines et explorant les pistes de recherche antérieures. De plus, elle suggère une expansion idéale de la collection grâce à un recensement mené pendant la recherche, ce qui a conduit à la découverte et à l'identification d'environ 50 nouveaux fragments latins réutilisés dans les registres de l'Archivio Estense, toujours in situ. Ainsi, cette étude sera la première à révéler une part importante de l'héritage des manuscrits médiévaux qui a survécu sous une forme fragmentaire et qui est largement restée inédite. Contrairement aux recherches précédentes qui se sont concentrées sur l'analyse d'exemplaires individuels ou de groupes de fragments présentant des caractéristiques similaires (par exemple, les fragments hébreux ou ceux avec des notations musicales), cette thèse adopte une approche globale en examinant les éléments fragmentaires attribuables au même contexte de réutilisation. Le cœur de la thèse se concentre sur la méthodologie développée pour reconstruire les provenances définies comme "archéologiques", c'est-à-dire liées au contexte matériel de la découverte des fragments, en mettant particulièrement l'accent sur les témoins réutilisés dans les reliures des registres de l'Archivio Estense. De plus, la thèse inclut des fragments documentaires - généralement exclus des études sur la fragmentologie - offrant ainsi des opportunités de recherche supplémentaires et fournissant des perspectives significatives sur les aspects systématiques de la réutilisation, en particulier dans les domaines gouvernés par la famille d'Este. Cette approche interdisciplinaire met en évidence l'importance des études archivistiques et diplomatiques dans l'examen des fragments de manuscrits, qui étaient traditionnellement considérés principalement du point de vue paléographique et codicologique. Un catalogue partiel des fragments de parchemin en latin attribués aux Archives Estense est présenté, suivant le modèle de fiche descriptif établi dans la base de données Fragmentarium. L'analyse des fragments comprend l'identification du contenu, la datation, l'origine, ainsi que des aspects matériels et historico-contextuels. Dans certains cas, l'origine commune de plusieurs fragments a été reconnue, permettant ainsi la reconstruction de membra disiecta. Parallèlement à cette recherche, un projet pilote de numérisation de fragments des Archives d'État de Modène a été réalisé en collaboration avec le Centre d'études ARCE de l'Université de Bologne. Ce projet s'est concentré sur des spécimens sélectionnés pour la catalogation, avec une coordination des métadonnées réalisée par l'auteur de la thèse. Un rapport sur les activités menées dans le cadre du projet est inclus dans la thèse, ainsi que des réflexions sur les méthodologies adoptées
This research focuses on manuscript fragments preserved in the State Archives of Modena which originate from the Archivio Estense: it has been revealed that a significant number of these fragments come from the bindings of volumes that make up the archival complex of the House of Este, the largest collection held at the State Archives of Modena - this archival fund spans from 1317 to 1797 and comprises a diverse range of documents in terms of quantity and types, yet it remains coherent due to its origin from a single institutional context.The thesis begins by providing a detailed analysis of the archival history of the fragment collection, tracing its origins and exploring its previous research paths. Additionally, it suggests an ideal expansion of the collection through a census, conducted during the research, that has led to the discovery and identification of approximately 50 new Latin fragments reused in the registers of the Archivio Estense, still in situ. Hence, it will be the first study to disclose a significant portion of the medieval manuscript heritage that has survived in fragmentary form and largely remained unpublished.In contrast to previous research that focused on the analysis of individual exemplars or groups of fragments with similar characteristics (for example, the Hebrew fragments or those with musical notation), this thesis offers a comprehensive approach by examining fragmentary evidence attributable to the same context of reuse. The core of the thesis focuses on the methodology developed for reconstructing provenances defined as "archaeological", i.e. related to the material context of fragment discovery, particularly focusing on witnesses reused in the bindings of the Archivio Estense registers.Furthermore, the thesis includes documentary fragments - typically excluded from fragmentology studies - providing additional research opportunities and offering significant insights into systematic aspects of reuse, especially within the domains ruled by the Este family. This interdisciplinary approach highlights the importance of archival and diplomatic studies in examining manuscript fragments, which were traditionally considered primarily from paleographical and codicological perspectives.A partial catalog of Latin parchment fragments attributed to the Estense Archives is presented, following the descriptive sheet model established in the Fragmentarium database. The analysis of the fragments includes the identification of content, dating, location, as well as material and historical-contextual aspects. In some cases, the common origin of multiple fragments has been recognized, allowing for the reconstruction of membra disiecta.Parallel to this research, a pilot project for digitizing fragments from the State Archives of Modena was carried out in collaboration with the ARCE Studies Center at the University of Bologna. This project focused on selected specimens for cataloging, with metadata coordination undertaken by the thesis author; a report on the activities conducted within the project is included in the thesis, along with reflections on the adopted methodologies

In this thesis, we provide the palaeographic edition and the translation of the Hebrew manuscript fragments of the Historical Archives of Gerona with Catalan written in Hebrew characters (14th-15th centuries), reused as book bindings of medieval notarial books. Textual and linguistic analyses are provided for this entire corpus, and, through this examination, we value the use of the language among the Jewish community. The collection contains a diverse typology of documents of which we present an overview. We have found many pages from moneylender registers concerning money lent predominantly to merchants from Gerona and their surroundings and also related to taxation. So we also focus on the study and contextualization of such economic manuscripts.

Mittelalterliche Pergamentkodizes sind äußerst kostbar und werden selten im Antiquariatshandel angeboten. Spektakuläre Erwerbungen wie die Nibelungen-Handschrift C (Badische Landesbibliothek, Karlsruhe) oder die Ottheinrich-Bibel (Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, München) sind große Ausnahmen, möglich nur unter Aufwendung außerplanmäßiger Mittel undmit finanzieller Unterstützung von Sponsoren und Stiftungen. Heute gilt jede mittelalterliche Handschrift als einzigartiges Zeugnis – sei es für die durch sie überlieferten Texte und Bilder, sei es für ihr historisch-kulturelles Umfeld. Diese Wertschätzung erfuhren mittelalterliche Handschriften nicht zu allen Zeiten. Mit zunehmender Verbreitung gedruckter Bücher verloren sie in der frühen Neuzeit ihre Funktion als Informationsträger und wurden oft nur noch ihres Beschreibstoffes, des Pergaments wegen geschätzt, das vor allem die Buchbinder gut gebrauchen konnten. Auf diese Weise sind unzählige Fragmente entstanden, die mitunter ebenso wertvoll sein können wie vollständig erhaltene Kodizes, vor allem dann, wenn es sich um singuläre Text- / Bildzeugen handelt oder wenn dadurch andere Fragmente ergänzt werden können.

Bell, Lonnie David. "Textual stability and fluidity exhibited in the earliest Greek manuscripts of John : an analysis of the second/third-century fragments with attention also to the more extensive papyri (P45, P66, P75)." Thesis, University of Edinburgh, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/1842/11768.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is an assessment of the character of textual transmission reflected in the pre-fourth century Greek manuscripts of the Gospel of John. Since John is the most attested New Testament book among the early papyri, has the highest number of papyri that share overlapping text, and is the best attested Christian text in the second century, it serves well as a case study into the level of fluidity and stability of the New Testament text in its earliest period of transmission. The transmission of New Testament writings in this period has been characterized by a number of scholars as error-prone, free, wild and chaotic. This thesis is an inquiry into the validity of this characterization. I contend that our earliest extant manuscripts should serve as the most relevant evidence for addressing this issue, both for the period in which they were copied and for inferences about the preceding period for which we lack manuscript evidence. My treatment of the earliest Greek manuscripts of John primarily involves a fresh and full assessment of the level of fluidity and stability exhibited in the 14 smaller fragments (P5, P22, P28, P39, P52, P90, P95, P106, P107, P108, P109, P119, P121, 0162) by identifying on the basis of internal evidence the character of variants and unique readings attested. Additionally, I compare the number, character and significance of the singular/sub-singular readings of each early fragmentary manuscript with those in the same portion of text in the major majuscule manuscripts up through the seventh century that share complete overlap. The unique readings of P66 and P75 are added to this comparison where they fully overlap with the smaller fragments. Since P45 and P66 have been particularly identified with a “free” manner of transmission, I include an extended discussion in my introductory section in which I engage with research on the character of transmission exhibited in these two witnesses. My analysis of these early manuscripts based on the internal evidence of readings allows for a more in-depth and accurate characterization of the freedom and/or care exhibited. The comparison of singular and sub-singular readings with those of the later majuscules facilitates a diachronic comparison of the number and nature of readings most likely to have been generated at the time in which each respective manuscript was transcribed. This latter step allows us to test, by way of these passages, whether or not the manuscript tradition can be fairly characterized as freer and more prone to corruption in the second and third centuries than in subsequent centuries. From these data, and in conjunction with observations made on any relevant physical features of the manuscripts themselves, I conclude that the copying of John during the second and third centuries was characterized largely by stability and by continuity with the later period. These conclusions serve the broader purpose of providing a window on the character of New Testament textual transmission in the earliest centuries.

Abstract:
This study examines the use of punctūs (or ‘pointing’) for punctuation in the most recently discovered Leipzig fragment (MS L) of the Hêliand, focusing on the frequency and distribution of pointing in various metrical and syntactic contexts of the poem. Data on punctuation, word order, and meter are provided as evidence for a close stemmatic relationship between the L- and P-fragments but a more long-distant relationship with the main Hêliand manuscript C. This evidence supports findings in Schmid (2006) that the L- and P-fragments might come from the same codex and that the later MS C diverges from these fragments and their common Vorlage.

Abstract:
The historical legacy of the TITANIC defies a brief manuscript of 20- plus pages. Much better, and more detailed work has been done to give the subject a “modern” context, notably by the United States Coast Guard in the Summer 2012 issue of Proceedings of the Marine Safety and Security Council, vol.69, no. 2, from which the following remarks draw heavily. The night of April 14, 1912 – the famous “night to remember,” chosen by Walter Lord as the title of his excellent history – presents us with many questions that will probably never be answered. Most of these are technical: the “what ifs” that, in one form or another, haunt us after, but usually not before, a disaster at sea. The importance of safety at sea is shown by the pictures available since 1985, showing the broken fragments of wreckage lying on the ocean floor south of Cape Race. Since the wreckage was located, we can see the pairs of empty shoes and boots that mark where human remains once lay. The TITANIC facts are familiar: at 11:40 P.M. on April 14, 1912, she collided with an iceberg. Two hours and 40 minutes later, the pride of the White Star Line began her two-mile plunge to the bottom of the North Atlantic. Of the 2,224 passengers and crew aboard, only 710 survived. While there have been sea disasters that produced greater loss of life, the sinking of TITANIC is probably the most famous and far-reaching maritime disaster in history. While the loss of TITANIC has been described as “perhaps the most documented and least commonly understood marine casualty in maritime history”, a positive result of the TITANIC disaster, and of course many other tragedies at sea that have occurred since, has been to establish a formal protocol of goals and procedures for analysis and investigation. These goals, from the point of view of the investigator/flag state, other governments, the International Maritime Organization (IMO), and other regulators, is the identification of unsafe conditions, in order to identify them in advance of future disasters. Today, responsible regimes charged with administration of the safety of life at sea are said to follow a philosophy of prevention first and, then, response. The 1985 discovery of the wreck of the TITANIC sparked a new round of forensic investigation. The bow section was found largely intact with the stern section in hundreds of pieces approximately 2,000 feet away. The realization that TITANIC’s hull had broken at some point during the sinking added a new understanding of the already famous disaster. The discovery of the wreck also provided new forensic evidence in the form of recovered artifacts and detailed surveys. It was these new clues and advances in computer-driven engineering tools that gave rise to a revision of previously held beliefs. The significance of the TITANIC, and the events that led to such a large loss of life, remain with us today.

Abstract:
The Viennese music theoretician Heinrich Schenker opposed modernity during his entire life. At first, this opposition applied to new technologies as well. Despite his skepticism, he purchased a radio shortly after the Austrian Broadcasting Corporation (RAVAG) started broadcasting in October 1924 and soon became an avid radio listener. Schenker quickly grasped the advantages of this new transmission medium and used it to further his own interests, aided by personal contacts with the RAVAG. In 1928, his associate Otto Erich Deutsch delivered a radio lecture co-authored with Schenker about the goals of the “Archive for Photograms of Musical Master Manuscripts” which was founded at Schenker’s instigation. In 1934, the RAVAG sponsored a competition, awarding the best text to a song fragment by Franz Schubert which in turn was discovered by Deutsch. Since the textless fragment lacks the final measures, Schenker had previously composed an ending for the song which was also performed on the radio.

Abstract:
Abstract The Wells Front-End Loading (FEL) workflow is a critical phase in the planning and design of oil well projects, enabling efficient cost optimization and decision-making before project execution. However, the current FEL workflow suffers from inefficiencies caused by manual registration, localized record-keeping, repetitive iterations, and dynamic stakeholder expectations influenced by oil price uncertainties. Furthermore, fragmented data connectivity and the unavailability of legacy data hinder seamless data flow and digital adoption throughout the well life cycle. To address these challenges, this paper introduces Wells Front End Engineering Nexus (FENEX), a centralized web-based workflow platform that digitalizes the FEL workflow and offers anywhere and anytime accessibility. The FENEX application is supported by the Well Planning Suite (WPS) as the orchestrator to enable the execution of FEL workflow, perform detailed engineering design and ensure a smooth handover to the execution team. This manuscript presents FENEX as a comprehensive solution for improving the FEL workflow. It highlights the FENEX dashboard, critical roles of WPS and some enhancement features, i.e. introduction of features of "Campaign", workflow integration & approval process amongst the Field Development Plan (FDP) team & Technical Assurers (TA), guided workflow for well engineering and input for efficient project tracking & monitoring via FENEX. In the effort to realize FENEX, this paper will also discuss the key challenges in managing the segmented well databases between well design planning and well operational records which could impair the seamless data connectivity throughout the whole well life cycle. As such, a drastic reshaping of the data landscape was required to mitigate this where all data are consolidated into one Cloud database, wellSCAPE promoting a single source of truth for all well design, planning and operational records data. The implementation of FENEX addresses the limitations of the current FEL workflow, streamlining processes, enhancing efficiency, and reducing costs. By centralizing project data and promoting seamless data connectivity, FENEX overcomes the challenges of localized record keeping, fragmented data landscape, and the absence of legacy data. The platform empowers stakeholders to make informed decisions, optimize value extraction, and drive digital adoption in the oil and gas industry. The introduction of FENEX represents a significant step towards efficient collaboration, optimized value extraction, and enhanced evaluation efficiency. The findings of this study provide valuable insights for industry professionals seeking to streamline the FEL workflow and leverage digital tools to achieve project success in a rapidly changing energy landscape.

Abstract:
Abstract Considering the nature of lumpsum turnkey contracts in the Middle East, multiple performance optimization initiatives have been engineered to accelerate well delivery without compromising well acceptance and compliance criteria. One of the most critical operations in these wells is the successful and efficient running of Inflow Control Device (ICD) as part of the lower completion across ±5, 000 feet of 6⅛-in. open hole lateral. Historically, this operation was associated with severe non-productive events and in worst case scenario, abandonment of entire section and eventual sidetrack. This study discusses detailed engineering analysis to enhance open preparation without a need to perform wiper trip with drilling BHA by creatively optimizing the design of cleanout and reaming bottom hole assemblies (BHAs) and the strategy of logging operation. Historically, dedicated trips were separately performed for borehole logging, open hole conditioning and cased hole cleanout. These trips were combined into a single BHA through application of fit-for-purpose technologies and optimization of operational sequence to minimize completion phase operational time. Moreover, risk of differential sticking while running completion string across highly permeable horizontal lateral was reduced by utilization of optimum completion fluids and efficient centralization program. Finally, an integrated model of real-time monitoring that interlinks trajectory, open hole, and BHA data and produces a sophisticated and accurate simulation of wellbore conditions based on previous logging and tripping data allowing for in-time intervention even prior to running completion string into wellbore. During the completion campaign of over 30 wells, all engineering, operational and monitoring solutions have been implemented and successfully allowed for 31%-time reduction in completion related operation. The creative drilling BHA design enabled elimination of mechanical wellbore risks associated with wellbore tortuosity and under-gauge and washed-out hole and thereby eradicating the need for wiper trip during drilling phase which was conducted to confirm hole conations prior to preforming Wire Line Tough Logging Condition (TLC) operation. This decreased well construction time by more than ±12-24 hours as the drilling BHA was directly pulled out hole to surface after reaching target well depth. Combined BHA strategy and optimization of operational sequence enabled wellbore cleanout, logging, and simulation to be conducted on single BHA run instead of three runs (TLC-logging run, reaming/ dummy BHA run, cleanout BHA run) which reduced overall well construction time by over ±48 hours. The three BHA runs were not historically possible to be combined due to tools and technology limitation as will be discussed in the following manuscript. Finally, proper selection of optimum drilling fluids, and bridging strategy integrated with enhanced centralization program and real-time monitoring system of open hole have successfully ensured the deployment success of ICD lower completion in all wells where the approach was implemented. The manuscript shifts the focus away from fragmented engineering solutions into more integrated and multidisciplinary solutions that maximize the optimization's impact on the entire construction process rather than individual operation. The impact of this project has been acknowledged regionally and established a benchmark on the way of conducting lumpsum turnkey business.

Abstract:
The worldwide market for ornamental saltwater invertebrates supplies the needs of millions of aquarium hobbyists, public exhibitions (i.e., zoos) universities and research institutions. With respect to reef building corals, it is estimated that more than half a million coral colonies/year from a total 93 genera, were exported globally during the period of 1985-1997. International value of retail sale of live coral trade alone is estimated as $78 million in 1997 (not including the illegally, widely smuggled material). The continuous, large-scale collection of marine organisms is responsible, in many places, for the destruction of coral reefs. The expected expansion of the trade further threatens these fragile habitats. While no true captive-bred corals are commercially available, our long-term goal is to develop ex situ inland farming of coral colonies that will circumvent the need for in situ collections and will provide domesticated specimens for the trade and for research. We simultaneously studied two model branching coral species, Stylophora pistillata (Pocilloporidae; in Israel) and Porites (Poritidae; in the US). The proposal included three specific aims: (a) To develop protocols for nubbins (small fragments, down to the size of a single polyp) usage in coral farming;(b) To address the significance of colony pattern formation to the coral trade; and (c) To develop the protocols of using nubbins in physiological and ecotoxicological assays (using oil dispersants, the expression of the stress protein HSP-70, household detergents, etc.). Ten scientific publications (published manuscripts, accepted for publications, submitted to scientific journals, in preparation), revealing results that were related to all three specific aims, originated from this BARD proposal. As a result of the work supported by the BARD, we have now, in hand, original and improved protocols for coral maintenance ex situ, proven expertise on manipulating coral colonies’ pattern formation and biological knowledge on island mariculture of reef corals (from Hawaii and from the Red Sea) amenable for the ornamental trade (for public and private aquaria use, for experimentation). At least one Israeli company (Red Sea Corals, Ltd., KibbutzSaar) is using our methodologies for further developing this new mariculture sector. We are now in the process of introducing the rationale and methodologies to Hawaiian private entities to expand dissemination of the research outcomes.

Abstract:
In this project we proposed to characterize the virus genome and the structural virion polypeptides to allow development of improved diagnostic approaches and potential vaccination strategies. These goals have been mostly achieved and the corresponding data were published in three papers (see below) and three more manuscripts are in preparation. The virion polypeptides of KHV strains isolated from USA (KHV-U) and Israel (KHV-I) were found to be identical. Purified viral DNA analyzed with a total of 5 restriction enzymes demonstrated no fragment length polymorphism between KHV-I and KHV-U but both KHV isolates differed significantly from the cyprinid herpesvirus (CHV) and the ictalurid herpesvirus (channel catfish virus or CCV). Using newly obtained viral DNA sequences two different PCR assays were developed that need to be now further tested in the field. We determined by pulse field analysis that the size of KHV genome is around 280 kbp (1-1. Bercovier, unpublished results). Sequencing of the viral genome of KHV has reached the stage where 180 kbp are sequenced (twice and both strands). Four hypothetical genes were detected when DNA sequences were translated into amino acid sequences. The finding of a gene of real importance, the thymidine kinase (TK) led us to extend the study of this specific gene. Four other genes related to DNA synthesis were found. PCR assays based on defined sequences were developed. The PCR assay based on TK gene sequence has shown improved sensitivity in the detection of KHV DNA compared to regular PCR assays. </P> <P><SPAN>With the ability to induce experimental infections in koi with KHV under controlled laboratory conditions we have studied the progress and distribution of virus in host tissues, the development of immunity and the establishment of latent infections. Also, we have investigated the important role of water temperature on severity of infections and mortality of koi following infections with KHV. These initial studies need to be followed by an increased focus on long-term fate of the virus in survivors. This is essential in light of the current &quot;controlled exposure program&quot; used by farmers to produce KHV &quot;naturally resistant fish&quot; that may result in virus or DNA carriers. </SPAN></P> <P><SPAN>The information gained from the research of this project was designed to allow implementation of control measures to prevent the spread of the virus both by improved diagnostic approaches and preventive measures. We have accomplished most of these goals but further studies are needed to establish even more reliable methods of prevention with increased emphases on improved diagnosis and a better understanding of the ecology of KHV. </SPAN>
