Comparison of the game perfomarmance efficiency on the 2014 World Championchips for woman in Turkey
Jandová, Karolína ; Velenský, Michael (advisor) ; Kaprálek, Tomáš (referee)
Title: Comparison of the game performance efficiency on the 2014 World Championship for woman in Turkey. Objectives: Compare and describe the effectiveness of selected performance gaming indices in all matches played during the 2014 World Championship in Turkey. The partial aim of the thesis is to find out the relation of the game indicators and the result of the match, which has a difference of 10 or less points. Methods: The main method is the secondary analysis of data that was obtained by direct observation during a match. These data are available to the public on the fiba.com web site in clear tables. Their values were analyzed and subsequently described and evaluated. Results: Using quantitative data processing, we have confirmed the improved efficiency of winning cooperatives in most of the tracked gaming indicators. We also confirmed the inadequate interdependence between one game factor and the result in a match. Keywords: team game performance, indicators, shooting, success, comparison, individual game activities, shooting success, rebounds

Diversity of soil microbial communities in relation to biodegradation of polymers
Hušek, Pavel ; Jandová, Kateřina (advisor) ; Innemanová, Petra (referee)
Polymer materials have had a big impact on the industry in the 20th century and replaced a large amount of then used materials. Plastic waste, however, has subsequently become a big problem that needs a solution. One of the possible solutions is to produce biodegradable plastics, that should degrade in nature by themselves and therefore not increase the volume of plastic waste. Their degradation, however, is often only partial and the dynamics of polymer biodegradation in soil are not yet fully understood. In this thesis, we are investigating biodegradability of polyurethanes in field soil as it has high ecological relevance. The text consists of two parts. The first part is literary research on mechanisms of biodegradation of polymer materials and methods which are commonly used for characterization of microbial communities. The second part is our own laboratory project that aims to evaluate the effect of biodegradation of polyurethane on soil microbial communities. We assume that mostly fungi and bacteria taxa will take part in the biodegradation and will use enzymatically catalyzed hydrolysis to degrade the polyurethane foam. Key words: Biodegradation, polyurethane, soil, microbial communities, PLFA

Culinary identity - are we, what we eat?
Jandová, Kristýna ; Grygar, Jakub (advisor) ; Numerato, Dino (referee)
The thesis presents a view on a group of amateur chefs - the culinary experts- for whom the cooking has become an essential part of their identity. On the basis of the analysis of semistructured interviews and the participating observation the author studies the tricks of creating of identity of the culinary experts and their life-style. Present day liquid modernity and hyper-consumerist society in a way offers the space for paying attention to oneself and for building an own life project. The culinary art has become for some individuals very important hobby, not only because of the fact that through it they can give pleasure to their bodies, but it can also improve their social status. The text shows that the culinary art brings to amateur chefs the possibility to dedicate their life to cooking, regardless the social stratification or economical class they come from. On the other hand, there is a distinctive dimension which shows that merely the consumption of fine food does not make a fine food eater or a fine diner. The group of the culinary experts is building an exceptional social status though distinctive tricks of consumption of so called "good food". This group is not homogenous and it is relatively open to new members who must subsequently prove and demonstrate the expert knowledge of a...

Performance indicators comparison of selected Czech and German women's team
Jandová, Karolína ; Velenský, Michael (advisor) ; Tůma, Martin (referee)
Title: Performance indicators comparison of selected Czech and German women's team Objectives: The aim of the thesis is to compare game performance indicators for the women's basketball teams in different European leagues. The minor goal of the thesis is to compare performance indicators in play-off games. Methods: The main method is direct registered observation using the "basketball scoring sheets". We analyzed sheets and then we compared the achieved values Results: Based on our study we found the values of the game performance indicators at the observed teams occur different regularly as well as irregularly. Keywords: team game performance, indicators, shooting success, comparison, individual game activities

Factors affecting success of eradication campaigns of invasive plant species
Novotná, Tereza ; Pergl, Jan (advisor) ; Jandová, Kateřina (referee)
Increasing trade and human movements are responsible for species exchange at large scale causing several negative effects on biodiversity and human socio- economy. Introductions of new species outside their native range by humans, represents the first step in the process of biological invasions. One of the key questions related to biological invasions is how the impact of alien species can be minimized and what are the most efficient ways of management. My work is aimed to collating various information on management of invasive species in Prague, Czech Republic with special focus on identification of how many financial resources are invested to eradications, which species are being managed, and which factors affect the output of management. Several studies have identified key factors that affect the success of eradication campaigns: the spatial extent of the infestation, the reaction time, and the level of biological knowledge of the organism. Socio-economic factors, including the resources invested to eradication, are rarely available, and their effect is therefore seldom evaluated.

Secondary metabolites, allelopathy and their significance in the invasion of Heracleum mantegazzianum
Jandová, Kateřina ; Dostál, Petr (advisor) ; Frouz, Jan (referee) ; Valterová, Irena (referee)
One theory concerning the invasiveness of exotic plants suggests that they exude allelopathic compounds that are novel in areas being invaded. Here, I tested for allelopathic effects of root exudates of the invasive plant Heracleum mantegazzianum (giant hogweed) in a series of experiments both in vitro and in the garden, and compared them with effects of its native congener H. sphondylium (common hogweed) and two less related native species. Moreover, I addressed intraspecific variability of allelopathy by comparing effects of 41 different maternal lines of H. mantegazzianum sampled from several areas and populations within the Czech Republic. Not only the effects, but also the identity of allelopathic compounds was investigated. In order to test also for the interaction of allelochemicals with soil microorganisms, I analysed the composition of soil microbial communities expressed as phospholipid and neutral lipid fatty acids (PLFA and NLFA, respectively) together with nutrient conditions and light availability at invaded sites in the Czech Republic. The results show that H. mantegazzianum is able to exert phytotoxic effects in vitro as well as in the garden experiment; however, its effects did not differ from the inhibition caused by the native species tested. Variation partitioning among areas,...
