Společenstva korýšů a vířníků v přirozených a revitalizovaných rašeliništích
Pfeifer, Lukáš
The theoretical part of the diploma thesis evaluates the current state of peatlands in the Czech Republic. Peatland were affected by drainage and the subsequent drying due to the peat extraction. There is the effort to restore these localities to their natural character and to protect them at present. The practical part evaluates species composition of mi-crocrustaceans and rotifers of monitored natural and restored peatlands in the Ore Mountains and Šumava. A total of 39 taxa of rotifers and planktonic crustaceans was found. The impact of restoration on these communities was evaluated based on differ-ences in species composition.

Detailed taxonomic and clonal structure of the Daphnia longispina species complex on the longitudinal gradient of the Želivka Reservoir
Stodola, Jakub ; Petrusek, Adam (advisor) ; Vaníčková, Ivana (referee)
Canyon shaped reservoirs are characteristic by specific environmental horizontal gradients, so they enable existence of several species of the Daphnia longispina complex in one water body. Due to preference of distinct environmental conditions Daphnia species occurre in the different localities. The aim of my thesis was to analyze detail taxonomical and clonal structure of Daphnia longispina group by ten microsatellite markers on longitudinal gradient and compare it between two consecutive seasons. Simultaneously I received newly discovered divergent mitochondrial lineage from Želivka reservoir. It was confirmed, that the distribution of species and their hybrids in water reservoir was non-concidental and the taxonomic spatial distribution is in two consecutive seasons relatively constant. On the contrary the spatial and temporal distribution of clones was very heterogeneous. Clonal diversity in the interspecific hybrids was lower than in the coexisting parental species. This finding supports the hypothesis, that there exist reproductive barriers between parental genomes. Most of the clones were substantively variable, but several clones that occurred in both seasons in similar localities were found. It is possible that some clones are able of overwintering in hypolimnion and in the spring...

Arctic lakes: present zooplankton, subfossil record and past development reconstruction, focused on Svalbard
Sejbalová, Zuzana ; Sacherová, Veronika (advisor) ; Tátosová, Jolana (referee)
Arctic areas have low energy income and therefore harbour very simple food webs. Every environmental change has large and immediate impact. There are many types of lakes in the Arctic, and their sediments accumulate pieces of organisms that inhabited them. Most frequently those are Chironomidae, Diatomeae and Cladocera. My thesis is focused on Cladocera, which have very good subfossil record, most offen carapaces, head shields, postabdomens and ephippia can be found. In palaeolimnological studies these records are used to reconstruct development of environmental factors such as temperature, water level and trophic status. These models can then be used to predict future changes of the environment. My future work will be focused on lake Garmaksla in the central Svalbard and therefore all aspect in presented thesis is focused on Svalbard. Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

The community of zooplankton in the pools in inundation area of Lužnice river
ŠEBESTA, Roman
This thesis aims to discuss generally the pools of river with a focus on the Upper Lužnice river maiinly on zooplankton communities, which ooccurs in these locations. Regular sampling of communities in different types of river pools better then identify their species and numerous changes during the year. Thesis deal with samplinng techniques and laboratory processing sampples of the zooplankton to.
