Stravitelnost krmiv pro kapra obecného
MAREŠ, Josef
This bachelor thesis evaluates the composition and apparent digestibility of various types of fish feed and various ingredients applicable to the feeding of common carp. This bachelor thesis also evaluates the suitability of individual components based on the digestibility of individual nutrients. The results show that the right combination of fish feed improves efficiency, reduces feed consumption and increases growth. Last but not least, the negative impact of feeding on the quality of the aquatic environment should be reduced. This bachelor thesis summarizes existing digestibility values of individual feed ingredients for common carp and then its own experiment, which was very time- consuming. Some already known values have been confirmed and some new information about the content of individual components of feed and their subsequent use has been found. The results for wheat and maize were compared with results of other authors. Triticale, daphnia and chironomidae larvae were used for the first time, so the values could not be compared, nevertheless it could be used as a basic information for further research in this area. The average content of individual cereal parameters were: 16% protein content and 64% digestibility, 2% fat content and 70% digestibility, 74% BNLV content and 74% digestibility. Fiber content 5% and ash content 2% with very low digestibility. Phosphorus content 0.6% and digestibility 30%. Average content of individual parameters for natural foods was: protein content 55% and digestibility 86%, fat content 5% and digestibility 74%, BNLV 20% and digestibility 41 %, fiber content 7% and digestibility 8%, ash content 14% and digestibility 30%, phosphorus content 1.2% and 74% digestibility. The resulting element was to determine the most suitable feed for pond aquaculture. According to the available results, wheat combined with natural food is the best option. Wheat is very energy rich, but has a low protein content. Conversely, natural food is energy rich in easily usable protein. The optimal ratio of natural food to wheat was 0.25:2. With this ratio we can meet the ideal nutritional requirements of common carp (31% digestible protein, 0.6-0.7 % phosphorus, 3200 kcal?kg-1 digestible energy). With the right feed, we are able to reduce the negative impact on water quality and this is one of the main goals for the future.

The impact of vertical distribution of zoobenthos in a pond in response to the biomass stocking of carp ponds
VÁLEK, Pavel
The impact of vertical distribution of zoobenthos in a pond in response to the biomass stocking of carp ponds was tested in the Rod, Dobrá Vůle, Pohořelec, Haslauerteich and Neuteich ponds. Except for the Rod pond, various carp biomass was represented in all ponds. Sampling was conducted during the growing season (June and July), and outside the growing season (September). Physico-chemical parameters of water were measured for each sample. All samples were sorted by groups, counted and weighed. The results are presented in graphs. Zoobenthos density of the Dobrá Vůle, Haslauerteich and Neuteich ponds showed a rising tendency towards deeper parts of the pond sediment. The density of these ponds reached the maximum values in depths of 10-14 cm. This tendency was observed in the occurrence of midges in these ponds. The highest density of midges was observed in the Haslauerteich pond (1,687 individuals per square metre). The above-mentioned ponds were stocked by the common carp (K2-3). The largest density of the tubifexes in the Dobrá Vůle, Haslauerteich and Neuteich ponds was observed during the September sampling in the shallow parts of the sediment (0-6 cm). The maximum density was 1,031 individuals per square metre. On the Pohořelec pond, the occurrence of zoobenthos during both samplings was recorded only in the depth of 10-12 cm. Other representatives of zoobenthos were present in the Rod, Haslauerteich and Neuteich ponds. Larvae of Sialis and Chaoboridae were observed as well. The density and biomass was greater in the September sampling. We have noticed a greater settlement in various depths. Their maximum density was in the Haslauerteich pond (218 individuals per square metre).

Kryoprezervace a transplantace spermatogonií kapra obecného
FUČÍKOVÁ, Michaela
Cryopreservation and transplantation of germ cells in fish provides a suitable tool for preserving genetic information. By method of surrogate reproduction, the offspring with characters of the chosen donor can be obtained. In this case of our commercially important species common carp. However, for the successful cryopreservation of the germ cells, a suitable protocol for each species must be established. Several cryoprotectants were tested. The best of them, Me2SO, regarding the viability of spermatogonia, was tested for its different concentrations depending also on the rate of freezing. Further testing, related to the effect of tissue size, incubation time and added sugar, was performed. The result of the assay identified best cryomedium composed of 2.5M dimethylsulfoxide, added sugar of 0.3M glucose, 1.5% BSA and 25nM Hepes dissolved in PBS. The most suitable size of tissue was 100 mg, incubation time was 30 min and coolig rate was -1 ° C/min. This protocol ensures the highest viability rate of cryopreserved spermatogonia of common carp. The second part of the work was to verify the success of the transplantation of cryopreserved and fresh spermatogonia into a suitably chosen recipient, the goldfish, which shares similar reproductive characteristics with carp, but also offers reduction of space requirements or resistance to koi-herpes virus. The transplanted germ cells colonized the germ line and started gametogenesis in 42.5% (cryopreserved spermatogonia) and 52.5% (fresh spermatogonia) goldfish recipients, which demonstrated that the transplantation of cryopreserved spermatogonia of common carp can be successfully achieved.

The potential of compound feed and cereals as a tool for keeping the production of carp at a good level in relation to the water quality.
MELKA, Václav
The aim of this diploma thesis was to test the production effectiveness of cereals and compound feed and at the same time, find out what influence they have on the water quality when applied in the semi-intensity carp farming. The feeding test was taking place in the period of 112 days in 10 experimental storage ponds. The feed which was tested, was cereals, extruded feed from the Aller Aqua company with 24% share of protein, pelleted feed glycid type feed with the 12,5% share of protein (KP) and pellet feed glycid type compound feed with 12,5% share of protein and reduced share of phosphorus (KPminus). A tested carp population of the same density was left without any additional feeding, to be fed only on the natural nutrition. Every one of these separated carp populations were fed three times a week in the morning and on the same spot of the fish tank. The testing was taking place twice.The measuring of the parametres of the water (temperature, oxygen, pH) took place once a fortnight, taking samples of the water once a month. At the end of the experiment, the level of phosphorus and the observed production parametres were evaluated.The highest production effectiveness was reached in the carps that were fed with cereals (FCR - Food Convertion Ration 2,41 - 0,46, SGR - Specific Growth Rate 0,54 - 0,07 %.d-1). The lowest production effectiveness was achieved with the pelleted feed KPminus (FCR - 3,72 - 0,30, SGR - 0,39 - 0,02 %.d-1). The highest retention of phosphorus (88%) in the fish biomass was reached with cereals. The lowest retention of phosphorus (60%) was reached in the carps fed with the pelleted feed KP. Feeding carps with tested feeds did not have any significant influence on the water quality. From both the economic and the environmental point of view, the best feed for carp pond farming is cereals.

Využití vybraných komponentů rostlinného původu ve výživě ryb
Zugárková, Iveta
The main aim of this Bachelor´s thesis was to create a literary review on the use of selected plant components in fish nutrition. Part of the review contains data on fish bre-eding and nutrition, nutritional requirements regarding the nutrients and customization of fish food. The second part of the Bachelor´s thesis presents a draft on the methodo-logy of a feeding test. Both scaled and mirror forms of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) will be used in this test and fed different crops: feeding and low-phosphate wheat, feeding and pearl barley. The corps will be processed into granule to make the food intake and utilization easier. The test will star in May 2016 and be carried out in the recirculation system of the aquarium room at the Department of fishery and hydrobiolo-gy of the Mendel University in Brno. The aims of the test is to evaluate the production effectiveness of used crops, including their influence on the chemical composition of fish tissues and selected parameters of internal environment of fish bodies. The tested crop species were chosen based on the data on the influence of various crops on the phosphorus level reductions in fishponds. Because the plant food for carp represents the most expensive part of carp breeding, there is ongoing research for finding economically and nutritionally suitable food.

Diet of great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo) in conflict localities
Ráslová, Pavlína ; Čech, Martin (advisor) ; Vrána, Pavel (referee)
vi Abstract Continental subspecies of the great cormorant (Phalacrocorax carbo sinensis) is the Czech Republic's most important fish-eating predator. It causes damage to production fish, as well as sport fishermen and even after its removal from the Czech list of endangered species in 2013, it did not disappear from the spotlight of both local fishermen and researchers. This thesis evaluates the qualitative and quantitative composition of the cormorant's diet during winter 2011/2012 at two selected locations: the Žehuň pond (Kolín district) and Berounka river in the natural reserve Zábělá near Pilsen. This work studies the main components of cormorant's diet in the selected locations and evaluates potential fluctuations and changes in its composition during winter. The study also conducted the analysis of the proportion of commercially harvested valuable fish in cormorant's diet and studied its diversity of the species spectrum. The resulting data for the two sites were compared with each other and with relevant literature. Regurgitated pellets analysis, as well as analysis of diagnostic bones and fish remains located at the sleeping roosts (night roosts) were used for the diet analysis. It was found that at both sites roach was the most caught fish, but from the point of view of total biomass, it was...

Pollution produced carp general, depending on the fullness of the digestive tract.
HAVLÍNOVÁ, Šárka
The aim of my bachelor thesis was to determine and compare the differences in the levels of pollution produced by fish through their metabolic activities depending on the fullness of their digestive tract. The pollution production was detected in 4 groups of fry of the common carp: 1) the fish had no access to food for 2 days before the beginning of the experiment; 2) the fish did not eat for 10 days before the beginning of the experiment; 3) the fish had a limited food intake (pellets KP1) before the beginning of the experiment; 4) the fish accepted spontaneously feed (2% by weight of the stock). The experiments were carried out in laboratory conditions. In the beginning of the experiment, the fish of individual groups and known weight were placed in experimental aquariums filled with 20 l of tap water. The experiments took 24 hours and after that the fish were moved back into its origin tank. Water from the experimental aquariums was filtered through a screen with 40 micrometr mesh size. Both, filtered water ("aqueous phase excrements") and solids ("solid phase excrements") were analysed. Solids were analysed for a content of dry matter, total phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N). Filtered water was analysed for a concentration of suspended solids, total nitrogen, total ammonia, total phosphorus, chemical oxygen demand (CODMn, and CODCr) and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5). Aqueous phase excrements was filtered again through a glass filter (1.2 micrometr) and the filtrate was analysed for concentration of ammonia nitrogen [N (NH3 + NH4+)], nitrate nitrogen [N-NO3-] and orthophosphate phosphorus [P-PO43-]. Pollution detected in solids and in filtered water was related to 1 kg of live weight of fish per day. The parameters characterizing pollution excreted by fish achieved in the 4th group i.e. fish, which accepted spontaneously feed the highest values. The fish of this group secreted on average of 4,154 mg.kg-1.day-1 of suspended solids (particles 1.2 micrometr), 105,5 mg.kg-1.day-1 of total phosphorus and 1,342 mg.kg-1.day-1 of total nitrogen. In the aqueous phase excrements, there was detected on average of 637 mg.kg-1.day-1 of ammonia nitrogen 4.9 mg.kg-1.day-1 of phosphate phosphorus.4,561 mg.kg-1.day-1 of CODCr, 2,634 mg.kg-1.day- 1 of BOD5. The values detected in the other groups were times lower.

Basic haematological parameters and their influencing by pollutants in common carp a review
POLANSKÁ, Daniela
The objective of this study was to describe the methods of determining the main haematological parameters and obtain as much information as possible about pollutants that may influence them. The subject of this thesis is the common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.). As far as pollutants are concerned, I focused on nitrogen compounds (ammonia, nitrite and cyanide), metals (Zn, Cu, Fe), heavy metals (Hg, Cd, Pb, Cr), petroleum substances, pesticides (organophosphates, triazines and diazines, pyrethroids), pharmaceuticals and natural supplements and persistent organic pollutants. Collected information imply that heavy metals and pesticides have the most important effect on haematological parameters of the common carp. Heavy metals cause changes in haematological parameters and cell anomalies and pesticides may cause haematopoietic failure, which especially means a decrease of number of red blood cells, the concentration of haemoglobin, the haematocrit value and the changes in the presence of different leukocyte forms. This study summarizes the knowledge of the effects of the aforementioned pollutants and highlights the danger of their effect as well as the possible threat to fish health, not just of the common carp. The information dealing with the effects of many pollutants on the blood parameters of fish is missing in available scientific literature.
