Evaluation of the natural recreational potential of the area Smečno - Ledce - Přelíc
Lišková, Zuzana ; Růžičková, Lenka (advisor) ; Ivan, Ivan (referee)
The thesis deals with the evaluation of the natural recreational potential of a selected area. The evaluation is based on three different methods with different approaches. Selected methods are TERPLAN, Inverse Distance Weighting IDW and Focal statistics. The evaluation was situated in the Central Bohemian Region in the territory of Smecno, Ledce and Prelic.
Input data for TERPLAN were created by vectorization of base maps. The TEPRLAN method needed to be edited for needs of selected area, because the original form of the TERPLAN is strictly focused on several landscape features. Input data for the other two methods comes from questionnaires. Landscape features were divided into five groups which each of them represent a specific sort of a recreation. These groups were rated according to the results of questionnaires. The IDW method evaluated the recreational potential on basis of distances between the centers of towns and landscape features. The result of this method is an interpolated value of recreational potential for its center. The recreational potential was counted for every town center and their merger gives a final raster layer as a result of recreational potential of whole area. The method of focal statistics was counted for mean and sum of input values. The raster layer of mean focal statistics represent a distribution of important landscape features in area. Second method of focal statistics with sum leads to the results that summarize recreational potential of each segment in area.
Results of these three methods were supplemented with field research. According to the results of all methods was selected part of area with greatest recreation potential where was situated plans to boost actual potential. These plans should bring recreation opportunities closer to the public. Outcomes of this thesis can be used as input for next strategic planning development of this area.

Analysis of the behaviour of selected categories of breeding cows
VESELÁ, Tereza
The aim of this thesis was to assess the differences in behavior of the two categories of beef cattle of Limousine breed, reared in the system without market production of milk, specifically heifers and cows with calves. Two seasons were selected (summer and winter) for the observation and the accent was on observing basic categories of behavior, such as feed intake, rest, standing and movement. The place where the research took place was the farm "Černěveský háj" located on the boundary of Strakonice, Prachatice and Budějovice district. Both behavioral studies were conducted for whole twenty-four hours. For night monitoring hunting camera with programmable video recording was used. The recorded data were written to the ethogram using descriptive interval method with length of interval of 10 minutes. During both observations the fundamental rules of ethology were respected. Traced values were evaluated by absolute time, its percentage and frequency and were subsequently completed with appropriate description. The results from this ethological research of heifers and cows with calves during two different seasons show that older cows have more regular and more keep basic categories of behavior during the day and more extend their regular behavior even throughout the year. Older subjects are able to make better use of pasture than heifers and address to it more time of the day (40% resp. 35%). During consummation of preserved feed ration heifers shortened their feed intake compared to cows (39% resp. 31%). By heifers there was also significant movement restriction, but to a lesser extent than in the case of cows. At the same time heifers prolonged period of rest from 33% to 50%. In conclusion, the obtained results show that the area in which the cows are kept is suitable for raising beef cattle without market production of milk. The breeder could only focus more on supplementing of graze with elements supporting natural welfare of beef cattle in year-round grazing.

Organical chemicals from biomass
DOLEŽAL, David
This bachelor thesis deals with the processes of biomass as a renewable resource for the production of chemicals that could compete chemicals obtainable from fossil sources. Processing of biomass can be divided into two main approaches namely a thermochemical and biotechnological processing of biomass processes. This processing involves many processes such as hydrolysis, crushing, fermentation, combustion or high temperatures and pressures, and many other thermochemical or biotechnological processes associated with the nature of the structure of the biomass. As the most important products of biomass processing can be considered biofuels represented in my work mainly by ethanol, but also methanol and other organic chemicals such as furfural, levulinic acid and hydroxymethylfurfural derived from the processing of C5 and C6 sugars located in the fundamental structure of biomass. These organic chemicals can also serve as a chemical platform and subsequent modifications of them can get products with the same or very similar properties of the products of the petrochemical industry.

Comparative Analysis of the Influence of Multifunctional and Conventional Farming on the Development of Rural Areas
Kólová, Anna ; Kuchtová, Perla (advisor) ; Martina, Martina (referee)
Conventional agriculture is known for industry approaches to agriculture production.
This has led not only to a positive increase in productivity per unit area and ensured greater
food security (and recently self sufficiency), but on the other hand it also increased farmers
dependence on industrial inputs. Among the major drawbacks of the prevailing method
belongs simplified management technology, which is reflected in the increasing problems
with resistance of diseases and pests as well as the increasing environmental pollution and
disruption of the food chain. These approaches also alternate the country, which loses its
character of a place friendly to life.
Multifunctional agriculture can be seen on the other hand as an alternative agriculture.
It has many forms and often has much in common with organic farming. It is focused on other
areas than the maximum of market and food production. It is engaged in various activities,
which include tourism, leisure activities, crafts and other services, protection of cultural
heritage as well as the environment. It has a positive effect on the entire rural development
and often tries to produce safe regional food and protection of nature-friendly sustainable
management. Even this system, however, has its drawbacks.
The aim of the study was to assess and evaluate the impact of different approaches to
market farm production, environmental issues, sustainability of agricultural systems and
multifunction applications with regard to their effects on rural areas. Additional terms of the
coexistence of agricultural enterprises in the Czech Republic were defined.
By comparing two different businesses operating on the background of historical facts,
it was found that companies with different approaches can in the region and in the Czech
Republic not only coexist, but complement each other and at the same time be beneficial not
only for the agriculture. However, there were outlined possible changes which should
agricultural sector and the enterprises themselves go through in order to achieve sustainability
of all functions of the landscape. This is mainly to support alternative farming systems as a
suitable complement to conventional agriculture.

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.

Periodontal Disease of Dogs
Škutová, Šárka ; Barták, Miroslav (advisor) ; Olekšáková, Tereza (referee)
Periodontal disease (PD) affects periodontium and thanks to its prevalence it is considered to be one of the most occurred diseases in small animals and even in human. The uppermost etiological agens presents bacterial plaque. Bacterial plaque strongly accumulate if it is not eliminated and it might be the cause of development of gingivitis or even periodontitis over time.
The anatomy itself is relatively large, since the oral cavity is comprised of many kinds of tissues and a detailed description thereof would cover 70 pages at least. That is why the main aim of this work was to attempt to select the most basic information only.
Due to dividing of anatomical structures into bones, soft tissues, salivary glands and teeth, the individual components of supporting apparatus (periodontium) are not described in chapter called ,,periodontium,,. Here is explained its purpose and a description and function of periodontal ligament, which has not been included above. Particular attention was paid to the teeth. Determining the type and the number of individual teeth, the knowledge of their structure and the number of roots, all of that is important when it comes to a tooth extraction. The knowledge of tooth marking, dental formulas, identification systems and odontogenesis itself is equally important.
As for each disease, the etiology is the essential part for understanding the formation of disease. Bacterial plaque, which adheres to enamel of teeth is regarded (as already mentioned) as initial etiological agens. It can mineralize in tartar in varying degrees depending on every individual subject (animal). There are involved other risk factors at onset of the disease such as age, breed, number and line-up of the teeth, their pathology, diet, but also some diseases.
PD can be classified in two basic forms (gingivitis, periodontitis). Gum inflammation, or gingivitis, is often denoted as initial and totally reversible stage of disease. It is possible that there may not be present any symptoms or just slight redness at the beginning. Later stage leads to swelling, pain and significant bleeding, whereas it can manifest in periodontitis if therapy is absent.
Periodontitis affects the entire periodontium and it is often called as an irreversible stage. Although thanks to guided tissue and bone regeneration it is possible to achieve at least slight improvement these days. In most patients disease passes into chronic form, causes them not only pain during eating, but may also result in various systemic diseases. A special form which affects younger individuals is called ,,juvenile periodontitis,,. Diagnosis is primarily based on the medical history and examination of the oral cavity. Tartar index, gingivitis index, grades of tooth mobility and other parameters, which helps to determine the extension of disease and stage can be obtained using the intraoral radiographic, visual examination and measurement by periodontal probe. All collected information can be used to devise recommended therapy.
The sole therapy depends on the state of the patient and the requirements of the owner. It consists of several steps. The essence is especially removal of any deposits of bacterial plaque and tartar, correction of teeth pathologies (smoothing rough surfaces) and tissues pathologies to eventual tooth extraction. As part of the therapy may also be chosen application of antibiotics and other preparations supporting wound healing. Many specialists have been developing new treatments over the past 10 years, but most of them are still not fully finished. These include the development of vaccines, photodynamic therapy, or guided tissue and bone regeneration, which were already mentioned.
An integral part of therapy is home dental care. Without consistent home care there is a high probability of relapse.
An important weapon against the rise of PD are various preventive measures. The most effective method of prevention is probably regular tooth brushing using a brush and a special paste made for animals. However, many owners prefer to avoid this method. They rather elect to feed dry diets, dental treats and other products which help to reduce the amount of plaque and tartar. Another option is a professional teeth cleaning performed by a veterinarian.
A survey via questionnaire consisted of 16 questions, which were aimed at awareness of the disease, age, sex, breed, size, diet, preparations which help to control amount of plaque and tartar, systemic diseases and especially the presence of PD, age at first hit by disease, the circumstances of diagnosis, stage, treatment and relapse.

Application of enterprise resource planning systems and use of accounting data in regional economy
HANZAL, Petr
This dissertation is seen as a contribution to the field of enterprise resource planning systems (ERP) and their application in regional science. The main objective is to demonstrate the possibility of using accounting data of enterprise information systems for regional evaluation, for example, regional statistics, identifying agglomeration and economic analysis of some spatial dependency of economic activities, through a set of accounting data obtained from business entities. The dissertation is divided into two parts - theoretical framework and practical part. The theoretical framework provides a theoretical basis for the definition of information society, ERP, their structure and deployment of ERP in the EU regions, including the use of accounting data from the ERP for the regional evaluation. It also contains a definition of the region and regional relations as part of a regional policy. Regional statistics and the comparison of regional indicators, definitions of economic clusters, enterprise networking and methodology of identification of economic agglomerations are explained in another part dissertation. Interpretation of statistical methods are then used in the practical part of the dissertation. In the practical part is then performed identification of economic agglomerations, derived from accounting data of enterprise resource planning systems, 27 randomly selected enterprises with nationwide coverage in ČR, regardless of the branch structure, followed by an analysis of the spatial dependence of sales and purchases to the distance.

Financial analysis of the selected company
Lagová, Veronika ; Veselá, Kamila (advisor) ; Srbek, Pavel (referee)
The bachelor's thesis deals with the topic of a business financial analysis. It is divided into two parts, where the first part focuses on theoretical description of individual methods and indicators, while the second part deals with the way selected analysis are applied to a specific company, which is CMS Ltd.
The practical part first describes the company, its history and its function. Furthermore the thesis shows the application of horizontal and vertical analysis of financial reports from 2010 to 2015. After that, selected indicators of profitability, liquidity, activity, indebtedness and net working capital were calculated. In addition, the calculations were accompanied by tables and graphs to make it easier to recognize the development in a certain period.
Towards the end of the analysis were performed bankruptcy and creditworthy models, specifically Index IN05 and Kralicek's Quick Test. Based on the evaluation of the creditworthy model, in the last two years the company has fallen into a so-called "grey zone", where it is impossible to accurately determine the financial situation of the company, however, based on the results of the Index IN05, the company is only at a low risk of bankruptcy. Finally, all the calculations are evaluated, as well as their causes and effects. If some values are financially unsatisfactory for the company, then recommendations for improvement are offered.
