Functioning of arbuscular mycorrhiza in relation to fungal community composition and environmental conditions
Voříšková, Alena ; Janoušková, Martina (advisor) ; Šmilauerová, Marie (referee) ; Kolařík, Miroslav (referee)
Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis, a widespread plant-fungal relationship, is based on reciprocal resource exchange. The functioning of this fragile relationship balances on the scale from mutualism to parasitism, depending on the specific context. The thesis aims to interlink the functioning of AM symbiosis both with the composition of AM fungal communities and with different abiotic conditions. The thesis is divided into a methodological and a factual part and consists of three publications and one manuscript. All experiments were conducted in greenhouse conditions with medic (Medicago sp.) as host plant. Host plants were inoculated with single AM fungal species in Paper I and II, and with a synthetic AM fungal community of five species in Paper III and IV. The host plant identity, the amount of phosphorus (P) in substrate and the type of substrate played an important role for the achievement of mutualistic AM symbiosis, as demonstrated in Paper I. Paper II showed that mitochondrial and nuclear qPCR markers can be used alternatively for the quantification of particular AM fungal species. However, intraradical fungal biomass was better related to copy numbers of nuclear DNA than of mitochondrial DNA. The functioning of AM symbiosis was modulated by the availability of P, light and water,...

Commented Translation: Schama, Simon: Burning Convictions
Šmilauerová, Marie ; Šťastná, Zuzana (advisor) ; Tobrmanová, Šárka (referee)
This thesis consists of two parts: the first one contains a translation of a section from the chapter Burning convictions, in the book A History of Britain by the British historian Simon Schama; the key themes of the translated text are the period of the Tudor reign and the Reformation of the Church. The second part is a commentary of the translation, containing detailed translation analysis of the original English text based on extratextual and intratextual factors, description of the chosen translation method, typology of translation problems and their solutions, and is concluded with typology of shifts that occurred in the translation.

Keith Lowe, "The Savage Continent": Translation with Commentary
Šmilauerová, Marie ; Šťastná, Zuzana (advisor) ; Tobrmanová, Šárka (referee)
The thesis consists of two parts: translation of a half of Savage Continent, a book by British historian Keith Lowe, with key topics including the universal destruction of Europe caused by the Second World War and the subsequent wave of vengeance that swept across Europe in its aftermath; and a commentary on the translation, beginning with an introduction of the author and his style, subsequently providing extensive overview of the development of the Czech discourse about the expulsion of Germans, translation analysis of the original English text of a chapter concerning the expulsion of Germans and its position in the discourse, as well as a look t the target reader and reception, and finally describing various translation problems that occurred while translating this chapter, including not only linguistic, but also poetic-ideological problems.
