Hormonal responses to cold stress
 Šturma, Vít ; Vaňková, Radomíra (advisor) ; Tylová, Edita (referee)
Low temperatures are an increasingly common stress factor for plants. Sudden and intense temperature fluctuations are thus a serious cause for lower crop yields. For this reason, it is important to understand what mechanisms are used by plants to defend themselves against damage caused by cold and freezing. An important component of this defence is represented by plant hormones, phytohormones, which create a complex network of signalling pathways. Phytohormones then control via their signalling pathways plant responses to cold stress. A few phytohormones affect the plant ability to cope with the cold stress, and the interactions among all these phytohormones are important for an efficient response to cold and freezing. Recently, research has revealed that the complex signalling network has a greater impact than previously thought. The phytohormone research in relation to cold stress responses is attracting more and more attention. The main aim of this thesis is to summarize the current knowledge on the role of phytohormones in the responses to cold stress. The thesis describes the signalling pathways of individual phytohormones and clarifies how the components of these pathways are involved in the response to cold stress. Also, the dynamics of phytohormone levels and signalling components in...

Low-temperature injury in insect tissues and mechanisms of its repair
 ŠTĚTINA, Tomáš
While physiological adjustments accompanying insect cold acclimation prior to cold stress have been relatively well explored, processes of recovery after cold stress received much less attention. Using a broad array of physiological, molecular biological and microscopic techniques, I aimed to capture the complexity of processes occurring after the exposure to cold stress in the larvae of two drosophilid species - freeze tolerant Chymomyza costata and freeze sensitive Drosophila melanogaster. Several lines of evidence pointed toward impaired mitochondrial functions in lethally frozen larvae. The freeze-tolerant phenotypes of C. costata retain integrity of mitochondria even after deep freezing.
