DNA Extraction of Sweet Cherry (Prunus avium L.)
Hřebcová, Kateřina ; Sedlák, Petr (advisor) ; Korecký, Jiří (referee)
Isolation of high quality DNA in satisfactory yield and purity is a fundamental and essential step for all molecular-biological studies and analyses. The process of its extraction can be complicated by many of materials like are polyphenols, polysaccharides, proteins and other metabolites that can be co-isolated with nucleic acids and can act as inhibitors of PCR and cause deterioration of samples for further analyses.
In this thesis, mostly used methods of plant DNA isolation were mapped, and, in experimental part, results, regarded to the yield and purity, of selected plant DNA isolation methods were compared. DNA was obtained from various tissues of Prunus avium L. species, namely from fresh leaves, buds and from frozen embryos of several varieties. Comparison of the two commercial isolation kits (DNeasy Plant Mini Kit by Qiagen and GeneEluteTM Plant Genomic DNA Miniprep Kit, Sigma Aldrich) was the original intention. The first of the kits was replaced by simple and quick DEP-25 DNA Extraction Kit, Top-Bio and the experiment was extended with CTAB DNA isolation protocol, both with and without application of RNase into the protocol.
The results obtained proved quite significant differences between the methods used, both in yield and purity. The original assumption, supported by several studies, that commercial kits not always gain relevant results, regarded to ability to provide pure DNA, was not accurately proven, the assumption that the CTAB protocol can gain satisfactory results according to the DNA yield and purity was proved only with some tissues. The results of the spectrophotometry were supported with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analyses conducted with the isolated DNA samples and after statistical evaluation were discussed.

Using of unseparated digestate as a phosphorus source for garden plants
Kujanová, Denisa ; Kulhánek, Martin (advisor) ; Jindřich, Jindřich (referee)
The advent of the modern trend of renewable resources was inevitable culmination of the development of civilization. Mankind learns more about use inexhaustible resources compared to depletion of reserves of non-renewable resources. Providers of renewable energy sources also include a biogas plant, which main function is the production of biogas. Biogas is produced in reactors by process of anaerobic fermentation without oxygen. As input for an agricultural biogas plants organic waste, cattle manure or for example energy grasses are used. The process of biogas production has the leftover of the fermentation at its end, so called digestate. Its composition depends especially on the inputs.
Digestate is a compound with high pH which is very rich not only for phosphorus but also for other nutrients. There are many studies dealing with the theory and practice of using digestate on the field for improving its properties and of other digestate usage. This diploma thesis has aim to explore combinations of unseparated digestate with peat and dolomite limestone with an effort to create a suitable substrate for different types of plants in terms of accessible phosphorus content.
During the experiment following plants were used between the years 2011 and 2015: Gazania rigens, Ocimum basilicum and Mentha piperita. For a control substrates following variants were used: Different types of commonly used growing substrates as the controls; peat combined with unseparated digestate in proportions of 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 % volume. In selected years dolomite limestone was also added in doses of 3, 6, 10, 15 g/l to stabilize pH.
The results of the work show a positive effect of the digestate on the substrate properties as for example pH value (with possible addition of limestone for stabilization) or dry matter. Digestate appears to be a suitable source of phosphorus for plants. In terms of the above-ground biomass yield of plants reached its maximum value at the control substrate Gramoflor. From the tested substrates it was in the most cases the substrate with 10 % digestate (in two years with doses of 6 a 15 g/l). Highest percentage of dry matter reached usually the control substrates.

The aim of tools supporting the implementation of the principles of the Lean manufacturing and Kaizen management is the elimination of wasting, improving response to customer´s demands. The keeping of the principles of company culture with the transition from the concept company to concept my (our) company. These principles are applicable to systems in the mass production and the small batch production. The some methods and tools are applicable in the area of services and public administration. We can say, that into each activity can be found reserves which are wasting about the Lean manufacturing. We are able to reduce or eli-minate them with use right tools. The subject of research are a never-ending changes the set up manufacturing processes during the implementation of Lean manufacturing and next application of Kaizen management. The changes which were done was not concern only for new set of material flow, workplace layout, leveling and optimization work, but also changes focused to thinking of people who are involved in these changes or the changes affecting them. To evaluace of the success and applicability of the newly introduced methods were set up measurable indicators and methodology of their eva-luation. The results which are presented are important for the company where the re-search was conducted. The outputs is important for other companies and recommen-dations of general application can help their further development and help to futher de-velop scientic knowledges.
