Pollens of Selected Alergenic Plants and their Didactic Use in Teaching Biology at High Schools
Pýchová, Adéla ; Skýbová, Jana (advisor) ; Říhová, Dagmar (referee)
In my thesis I deal with the pollen of allergenic plants, the origin and proces of allergy to plant pollen and the inclusion of these topics in the teaching of plant biology in high schools. In the theoretical part I focus on topic of pollen allergy. First, I generally describe allergy and its origin, causes of allergic diseases, environmental factors and the development of allergic disease. I also briefly address the naming and registration of allergens and I also mention the so-called cross-allergy. Great emphasis is placed on pollen allergy, which is devoted to a larger unit, divided into individual subchapters dealing with the physiological function of the nose, followed by an allergic reaction of type I, an allergic reaction that occurs on the nasal mucosa. Furthermore, subchapters mentioning the classification of allergic rhinitis, diagnosis and pharmacotherapy, including additions to the drug groups used in the treatment of pollen allergy. Another larger unit is devoted to the structure of the plant's blossom as a source of allergen, which includes the anatomy of the blossom parts and a description of the pollen grain. The anatomical description of the blossom is followed by a practical part, first created by a tabular overview with selected allergenic plants. Each plant causing the allergy...

7 Abstract The thesis is focused on the pollen of selected allergenic plants. Thesis is structured into two parts., pollination and fertilization , development of the pollen grain , its structure and chemical composition. The end of the theoretical part, dedicated to allergies, is divided into subsections dealing with First, teoretical part describes the flower and its morphology, discusses the pollen grain, stamen anatomical structure immunity and allergies, naming and registration of allergens and cross- pollen allergy . The practical part contains an analysis of curriculum for students of secondary schools. An integral part of the work is a survey of teachers in secondary schools, in which method of questioning was used. The aim of this questioning was to determine the presence of solved issue in terms of representation of pollen and pollen allergens in textbooks for secondary schools , as well as the inclusion of this issue in the official curriculum, under the National Programme for the Development of Education in the Czech Republic. Based on the results of a questionnaire survey of secondary school teachers, teaching materials have been developed in the form of two worksheets for teaching botany and guidance on laboratory exercises in plant biology.
