Sekvestrace uhlíku v travinných ekosystémech v různých měřítcích
BUREŠOVÁ, Renata
Hlavním cílem této práce bylo zjistit průběh sekvestrace uhlíku ve vybraných typech travinných ekosystémů na území regionální studie horní části povodí Stropnice a získané poznatky převést (pomocí metody up-scaling) na území celé regionální studie, případně na ještě vyšší prostorové úrovně. Experimentální práce byly zaměřeny na studium nadzemní a podzemní primární produkce a na rozklad odumřelé biomasy rostlin ve vybraných typech travinných ekosystémů. Možnosti převodu získaných dat z úrovně odběrových ploch na vyšší prostorové úrovně byly studovány pomocí GIS na příkladu hodnocení biotopů metodou BVM, za využití mapových podkladů s rozdílnou velikostí mapovacího zrna.

Interactive effects of UV radiation and drought on the accumulation of flavonols in selected herbs and grass in a mountain grassland ecosystem
Veselá, Barbora ; Surá, Kateřina ; Rajsnerová, Petra ; Klem, Karel ; Holub, Petr ; Urban, Otmar
The main objective of this 4-year experiment conducted in a mountain grassland ecosystem was to investigate the interactive effects of ultraviolet (UV) treatment and drought on changes in accumulation of UV-screening compounds (flavonols) in selected herbs (Hypericum maculatum Crantz, Rumex obtusifolius L.) and grass (Agrostis tenuis Sibth.). Inasmuch as drought and UV radiation induce similar protective mechanisms, we tested the hypothesis that UV radiation and drought elicit synergistic effects on flavonol accumulation. The experimental plots were manipulated using rainout shelters enabling the exclusion and transmission of incident precipitation and UV radiation. Generally, UV and drought treatments had similar effects on flavonol accumulation. For R. obtusifolius, UV exclusion resulted in a substantial reduction of UV-screening compounds, particularly under ambient precipitation conditions, while for H. maculatum and A. tenuis UV exclusion caused only a slight reduction of flavonol content. Similarly, the drought treatment caused an increase in flavonol accumulation.

Effects of UV radiation and drouhgt on the accumulation of UV-screening compounds and photosynthetic parameters in selected herbs and grasses of the mountain grassland ecosystem

The main objective of the experiment conducted on a mountain grassland ecosystem was to investigate the interactive eff ects of UV treatment and drought on the changes in accumulation of UV-screening compounds and photosynthetic parameters in selected herb (Hypericum maculatum) and grass (Agrostis tenuis) species. Th e experimental plots were manipulated using roof constructions enabling exclusion or transmission of incident precipitation and UV radiation, respectively. Generally, UV and drought treatments had a similar eff ect on the accumulation of fl avonols. UV exclusion resulted in a slight reduction of UV-screening compounds, particularly under the conditions of ambient precipitation. Likewise, drought treatment caused an increase in the accumulation of fl avonols per area unit. Under UV exclusion, drought slightly reduced the light-saturated CO2 assimilation rate (Amax) in both the species studied. Th e presence of UV radiation, however, led to less of a diff erence in Amax between [wet] and [dry] treatments. In addition to the increased induction of fl avonols, UV radiation increased water use effi ciency and alleviated thus the negative impact of drought on photosynthesis.
