Štrudl, Robin ; Bažant, Václav (advisor) ; Slávik, Martin (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the detection of the dynamics of the growth and development of lodgepole pine, which is intended for the purposes of the forestry reclamation on anthropogenic soils spoil banks. In the first stage it is approached the issue of growth and development of woody plants on spoil banks. Are described recent formations, their cutting and editing, further forestry reclamation and associated issues, on which follows the description of the entitlements of tree species in different territories, further criteria necessary for the correct evaluation of the conditions on the habitats directive and appropriate ways of establishing the stands. Subsequently, we approached lodgepole pine, its description, extension, variability, etc. In the second part of the thesis is studied and evaluated growth of lodgepole pine. The first is characterized by the interest of the territory and its natural conditions. On the plots in the forestry arboretum on the spout Antonin samples were taken in the form of stem discs, which served as the basis for determining the necessary values. Values were obtained from tree rings.

Factors affecting postmortem changes in pork meat
Seilerová, Michaela ; Čítek, Jaroslav (advisor) ; Lebedová, Nicole (referee)
The thesis focused on the summary of the quality of pork. The main indicators of the quality of pork and of meat generally together with a chemical composition and the external and internal factors dealing with the quality of meat are described in the thesis. The various histological structure, the variable chemical content, technological features are found in meat. The structure and composition depends on a way of living, the function of the parts of an animal body, on lots of intravital factors (a kind of an animal, breed, male or female, age, the way of nutrition, the state of health). Meat is a valuable source of nutrients and essential acids for a man. The human organism is not able to synthesize the essential acids itself. Lipids are the important part of meat, their main function is storing energy. They are found as a reserve tissue in the subcutaneus parts of animals or among muscular fibre. The amount of carbohydrates contained in meat is not important, meat is low in carbohydrates. They are only important for meat maturation. Meat is high in minerals and vitamins. It is necesary for a man and should be a part of our diet. The important factor for a meat quality is described as a formation of muscular fibres. There are the thin fibres in the meat of a high quality and the thick and fat fibres in the meat of a low quality. The meat quality depends on a number and charactes of animal fibres. The meat of a high quality is for example loin - it is the meat with fine fibres. The next factor which has influence on a meat quality is course of post mortem changes.We can differentiate four stages in these processes: prae rigor, rigor mortis, aging of the meat and deep autolysis. Post mortem aiging processes can deviate from teh standard from variety of reasons and as concequences we can see quality deviation of the meat for example PSE, DFD, RSE, Hampshire efect and cold shortening.Also the breed has the influance on the quality of the meat namely sensitivity to stress,growth characteristic and parameters of slaughter value, other internal factors are age and sex. External factors which has the influance on the quality of the meat are transport of the animals to the slaughterhouse, attitude of the employees during chasing after the animals, the rest before slaughter, stunning itself,bleeding thereafter and cooling down after slaughtery.

Marketing strategy
Rosenbaumová, Klára ; Kala, Štěpán (advisor) ; Pavel, Pavel (referee)
This thesis describes a suggestion of a marketing strategy for a specific joinery company when it implements a new product on the market. This product is a wooden crate. The aim of the work is to identify individual marketing strategies as well as to set a new marketing mix. The whole work is compiled in a comprehensive process that provides instructions for suggestion of strategies in a way that the company has a precondition for survival on today's market. There has been used marketing research in the practical part to find out satisfaction of customers with purchased crates, their requirements and opinions about he new product. By comparing the individual factors with competitors, there has been evaluated the company's position on the market thanks to which there have resulted possible points for improvement of company operations. Value chain analysis and 7S analysis have shown the strong and weak points which the company needs to focus on. Among other things, these analyzes have shown that the company uses an intermediary to sell the product and so loses a part of possible profits. It has further been found that the company still uses no promotion and therefore there have been proposed several low-cost forms of the product promotion. Marketing mix includes several action plans which can improve the company success on the market.

Performance recording in Charolais beef herd
Jelínek, Petr ; Toušová, Renata (advisor) ; Petr, Petr (referee)
Summary In this thesis I dealt with verification of performance of beef cattle Charolais Breed on farm: Chov Charolais spol. s r. o. Slabce. The main objective of my diploma work was to assess the growth abilities of calves Charolais breed from birth till weaning in relation to various factors, for instance: gender, order of calving, number of born calves during one calving, month and year of the birth on the respective farm. The relevant data was assessed for the period of years 2012 - 2015. In this period there was born 324 calves of which 162 bulls, 153 heifers and 9 still born calves. The assessment of calf's growth characteristics was related to the average birthweight, average gain from birth to 120 days, and average weight at the age of 120 and 210 days. For the evaluation of calf's growth characteristics was used data gained from the database of performance testing of beef cattle (KUMP) for the given period. Growth parameters related to selected factors were processed with the use of statistical software SAS 9.3 (SAS 9.3, 2011). The average weight of young bulls at birth was 33,58 kg and average weight of heifers was 32,99 kg. The average weight of bulls at the age of 120 days was 183,66 kg and the average weight of heifers was 175,58 kg which was demonstrated to be statistically significant (P < 0,01). The average weight of bulls at the age of 210 days was 288,28 kg which is again higher than heifers with average weight of 264,21 kg (P < 0,05). To summarize, there was identified statistically significant difference of the gender influence in behalf of bulls. After comparison of average weight at birth, at the age of 120 and 210 days separately for twins and an only child, there is obvious and also statistically significant finding (P < 0,01) that the observed twins are usually smaller at birth and their growth abilities are worse than that of only child. The average weight at birth for an only child is about 4,48 kg higher compared to twins. Then the average weight at the age of 120 days for an only child is about 38,68 kg higher than average weight of twings. Finally the average weight at the age of 210 days is about 58,26 kg higher for an only child. Regarding to the influence of order of calving there was identified no significant effect to both average birth weight and weight at the age of 210 days. The only statistical significance was identified between order of calving and the average weight at the age of 120 days in 1st, 2nd, 5th, 7th, 10th order of calving (P < 0,05). Further I found out that calves in the 1st order of calving have significantly lower average weight from the 1st calving mothers at the age of 120 days than the calves in the 2nd, 5th, 7th, 10th order of calving. The average weight of calves at the age of 120 days is about 9,29 kg lower than weight of calves in the 2nd order of calving. On the other hand the average weight of calves at the age of 120 days in the 5th order of calving is about 18,37 kg higher than weight of calves in the 1st order of calving. Similarly, calves in the 7th order of calving have about 13,63 kg higher weight than calves from the 1st calving mothers. And also calves at the age of 120 days in the 10th order of calving have about 15,78 kg higher weight than calves from the 1st calving mothers. In respect of influence of year of birth was identified statistically significant different level (P < 0,01) of the average birthweight in year 2013 compared to other years. Similarly there was demonstrated the statistically significant difference (P < 0,01) regarding to the average gain from birth in year 2013 compared to other years. The average birthweight in 2013 was 34,91 kg. The lowest average birthweight of 31,65 kg was observed in 2015. And for instance in 2012 the average birthweight was 32,48 kg which is still about 2,43 kg lower than in 2013. Regarding the evaluation of the average gain from birth till the age of 120 days there was only reported value of 1046,78 g in 2013. The best year regarding the average gain from birth till the age of 120 days was year 2014 which represented value of 1214,37 g. In the observed breed there took place births predominantly from January till June. Regarding the month of birth there was demonstrated statistically significant difference (P < 0,05) in respect of average birthweight of calves born in May 31,98 kg compared calves born in February 32,55 kg and in March 33,07 kg. Further was identified statistically significant difference regarding the average gain from birth for calves born in June 995,28 g compared to calves born in February 1197,87 g (P < 0,01). Similarly in March was reported value of 1181,18 g (P < 0,05). The last statistically significant difference (P < 0,01) was identified in respect of average weight at the age of 210 days of calves born in May 199,55 kg and in June 201 kg in comparison to calves born in January 282,05 kg, in February 284,65 kg, in March 277,21 kg and in April 277,76 kg. To conclude, based on the statistical analysis, conclusive results and literary sources there had been confirmed hypothesis that internal factors positively affect the growth abilities of calves.

Gas exchange characteristics in relation to genotypes in spinach (Spinacia oleracea) under water stress
Helebrantová, Aneta ; Hnilička, František (advisor) ; Pazderů, Kateřina (referee)
The bachelors dissertation was compiled on theme of: Gas exchange characteristics in relation to genotypes in spinach (Spinacia oleracea) under water stress. Spinach (Spinacia oleracea) is, similarly as the others leaf vegetables, difficult crop in terms of providing the sufficient level of moisture, therefore the attention is drawn to the varieties of spinach which are resistant to the water stress. Thus the target of cultivation is to find plant which will be resistance to influence of the water stress. In climabox of department of botanics and physiology was founded experiment with three species of spinach: Misano F1, Monores a Matador. The temperature mode was set to 21 °C during the day and 17 °C during the night. The light mode was set to 16 hours of light and 8 hours of dark per day. Maximum light level in climabox was 800 micromole. The plants were cultivated in 4 recurrences, diagram of experiment is involving two variants: control and stress. The plants in control variant were cultivated in substrate, which was irrigated during the whole time of experiment by 250 ml of water. For the plants in stress variant the supply of water was suspended for 10 days and the substrate was naturally continuously dehydrating. After 10 days the water supply was restored (rehydration) for plants in stress variant, same as level of control variant. The observation was made for the speed of gas exchange (photosynthesis and transpiration) in two-day interval. The speed of gas exchange was measured on leaf area with infrared gasometric gas analyzer Lpro+ (ADC Bioscientific, Hodeson, UK). Measured was conducted in morning hours according. Based on the measured values of photosynthesis and transpiration we calculated water usage effectiveness (WUE). Based on obtained results is evident that the highest average speed of photosynthesis in control variant was observed at variety of Monores (12,10 micromole CO2.m-2.s-1) and lowest at variety Misano (11,58 micromole CO2.m-2.s-1). The highest average speed of photosynthesis in stress variant was measured at variety of Matador (9,43 micromole CO2.m-2.s-1) and lowest at variety Monores (8,76 micromole CO2.m-2.s-1). There was observed decrease of photosynthesis for each of variety during the water stress. The highest average values of transpiration were observed at variety Monores (1,97 mmol H2O.m-2.s-1), lowest at variety Matador (1,68 mmol H2O.m-2.s-1). Stressed variety Misano reached level of photosynthesis 1,82 mmol H2O.m-2.s-1. Control variety Matador reached speed of transpiration 1,54 mmol H2O.m-2.s-1 and variety Monores 1,85 mmol H2O.m-2.s-1.Variety Misano was on same level of control variant as stress variant. The most sensitively reacted variety Monores, which usage of water was 4,43 (10-3). Variety Matador managed the stress well, the usage of water was 5,60 (10-3). Obtained results confirmed hypothesis of genotype differences depending on water deficit, thus there are differences between gas exchange and WUE in control and stress plants.

Analysis of sheep utility attributes in ecological and conventional flocks in the Czech Republic
Linhartová, Iveta ; Ptáček, Martin (advisor) ; Jan, Jan (referee)
The goal of this diploma thesis was to perform an analysis of sheep breeding of Suffolk breed in basic reproductive performance and meat production traits aspects. The information for rating these aspects was used from two farms. The first of them used conventional way of breeding (ZVOZD Horácko, družstvo) and the second one used ecological way (EkofarmaKosařůvmlýn, s.r.o.). Fertilization, fertility, intensity and rearing belong among monitored reproductive indicators. These reproductive indicators are expressed in percentages. Regarding meat production traits rating in this thesis we compared influences of year of lambing, farming method, birth month, sex, litter size and age of dam. All these influences were judge according to birth weight (kg), weight at the age of 100 days (kg), average growth (g), depth of the longest dorsal muscle (mm) and according to depth of subcutaneous fat (mm). Reproductive performance and meat production were monitored in years 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 and 2015. In terms of reproductive performance with a few exceptions it was true that ZVOZD Horácko, družstvo reached the best values, and in most cases better than the national average. For example in terms of intensity values in 2012 ZVOZD Horácko, družstvo had 35,9% better results compared to national average. In the same year this farm reached 48,1% higher values of percentage rearing compared to national average. Ekofarma Kosařův mlýn, s.r.o. showed worse performances, however it was in most cases better than national average. In terms of intensity in 2011 Ekofarma Kosařův mlýn, s.r.o. had the same results as the ZVOZD Horácko, družstvo. Meat production properties were supported by statistical calculations and all of them were conclusive at least at the level of significance P < 0,05 in all cases except month of birth effect on birth weight. The best results of meat production in terms of effect of lambing had the year 2012, when the birth weight was one of the highest and the other properties (weight at the age of 100 days, average growth, depth of the longest dorsal muscle, depth of subcutaneous fat) were by far the highest in the period of 2011-2015. Next we found out that the ecological way of breeding (in this case Ekofarma Kosařůvmlýn, s.r.o.) has better results than the conventional way (ZVOZD Horácko, družstvo). The effect of birthmonth has the significant influence on the indicators of meat production and the lambs born in April had the best results. In the case of sex rams are better. Litter size has very important influence on meat production the more lambs per one mother, the lower birth weights, the lower weights until the period of weaning, the lower weights at the age of 100 days. It is affected by milkiness of the mother. Moreover, the age of mothers also play a significant role. In our research the highest birth weights had lambs of one year old mothers and all other indicators were the highest in the case of three year old dams.

Characteristics important for ensuring of sustainable and development of dairy cattle herds breeding
Lelek, Jaroslav ; Stádník, Luděk (advisor) ; Petr, Petr (referee)
The aim of this dissertation was to assess the influence of characteristics important for ensuring of sustainable and development of dairy cattle herds breeding. The data investigated describe approximately 5138 dairy cows in period of four years in selected farming´s of dairy cattle in district of Jičín. There were these indicators of reproduction processed: conception rate after first insemination, conception rate after all inseminations, interval of insemination, index of insemination, service period and meantime; the data were collected from seven stables of Bohemian Spotted cattle and from seven stables of Holstein cattle. The longevity was investigated from the number of dairy cows at respective lactation of both investigated breeds and from the average lactation in respective years. The results of investigation prove that the average percentage representation of dairy cow at respective lactation between 2012-2015 ranged 33,4 % at first lactation, and 24,68 % at second lactation, and 18,13 % at third lactation, and 11,48 % at fourth lactation, and 6,53 % at fifth lactation, and 3,32 % at sixth lactation, and 2,36 % at seventh and more lactations. The evident data from comparison prove, that till third lactation there is higher percentage representation of Holstein cattle and from third lactation there are more cows of Bohemian Spotted cattle, and also the average reached lactation confirms this the value of 2,75 lactation for Bohemian Spotted cattle and the value of 2,3 lactation for Holstein cattle. The influence of breed on the average length of lactation was quite weak. The results of rating indicators of reproduction also have not proven any statistically important difference between both types of cattle as concerns values reached by each cattle, but the original Bohemian Spotted cattle reached better results in all indicators, and thus it is probably more suitable for the area of district Jičín.
