Characterisation of new diplonemid species via electron microscopy, starvation experiments and immunofluorescence studies
CIMRHANZLOVÁ, Kristýna
The large abundance and diversity of diplonemids in oceans has been overlooked until recently. Diplonemids are now starting to be recognised as an abundant and diverse group of the planktonic community. It is in our best interest to study these fascinating microorganisms to learn more about how they impact the ecosystems of the world's oceans. This thesis is focused primarily on morphological descriptions and determination of the life stages of four newly discovered species.
Ecological and phylogenetic effects determining variation of growth patterns in amniotes
Stanková, Veronika ; Frýdlová, Petra (advisor) ; Vohralík, Vladimír (referee)
Growth is a process during which organs or the whole body enlarges. It can be modeled by using growth models and curves. The work is mainly focused on the explanation of two types of growth - the determinate growth, which is finished after the reaching of the sexual maturity, and the indeterminate growth which on the other side continues even after the reproduction or after the reaching of the sexual maturity. In the literature there is generally stated that birds and mammals are characterized by the determinate growth, amphibians and reptiles have the indeterminate growth. The aim of this work was to analyze the current available literature relevant to the growth and to evaluate the above mentioned statements about the growth of the vertebrates. The ecological and the phylogenetic effects influencing the growth, the physiological regulation and the mechanism of the growth are summarized in this work. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
The Growth Warmblood Stallions During the Rearing
HRDINOVÁ, Lenka
The purpose of this thesis was to examine the growth and the growth curve of the Czech warmblooded horse stallions during rearing. Background materials were obtained based on its investigation of an examination horse rearing stable Czech warmblooded in Nový Dvůr (part of Municipal's stables in Pisek, sp). Stallions were measured in the years 2009 - 2010 in the age of 7 - 32 months. During this time it was measured 13 physical proportions, including four basic proportions ? height at withers (KVH) and height at withers measured by a tape (KVP), girth of a chest (OH) and girt of a shin (OHol). The growth curve and the behaviour of growth have been ascertained of the particular measurements. Then it was compared with literature. The greatest differences at results were observed in comparison with growth standards for height of withers. It was found that most of the measured stallions is classed in a growth zone + 1 (90.6% of cases). The remaining 9.4% of cases were included in the range + 2. The problem is also in the way, of definitiv of current standard, the current standard is determinated by one specific number (average value) and not spread within a certain range. The direct relationship with KVH also increased height at withers measured by tape. Based on the results we can conclude that the growth curve of the Czech warm-blooded stallions have changed and it should speculate about updating and modification of the standard for dispersion zone.
