Use of \kur{Notch} gene for the production of genetic "sexing" lines of codling moth.
 ŠVELLEROVÁ, Hana
The codling moth, Cydia pomonella, is the key pest of pome fruit and walnut orchards in the temperate regions of the world. The extensive use of insecticides for a control of this pest has resulted in the development of resistance to these chemicals, and there is an increasing demand on the use of environment-friendly control tactics, such as the Sterile Insect Technique (SIT). Codling moth SIT relies on the mass rearing and release of genetically sterile both males and females into a wild population. However, male-only releases could significantly reduce costs of the mass rearing and increase SIT efficiency. In this thesis I focused on the use of a temperature-sensitive mutant allele of the Notch gene for production of genetic "sexing" lines of codling moth.

Gene expression reporters in \kur{Drosophila melanogaster}.
 ŠTROS, Jiří
Drosophila melanogaster is a widely used model organism in genetic research and in a number of other disciplines associated with medical and biotechnological issues. The first part of this thesis presents a review of some basic genetic tools and gene expression reporters used in D. melanogaster research with emphasis on the use of GFP reporter. The second part presents a description and results of my experimental work aimed at the reporter construct consisting of adenosine deaminase gene (ADGF-A) and GFP marker. When using gene expression reporters such as GFP, it is important to know whether the presence of reporter does not affect the studied process. The experiment described in this study tested whether the fusion protein consisting of GFP and adenosine deaminase is fully functional enzyme or whether the enzyme activity is influenced by the presence of fluorescent tag. Results of this work support the usefulness of using the fusion construct as a gene expression reporter.
