Beekeeping and Its Use in Elementary School
Voska, Karel ; Andreska, Jan (advisor) ; Hanel, Lubomír (referee)
This thesis focuses on beekeeping and possibilities of its use in elementary schools. The first part is dedicated to the entire superfamily Apidae with a focus on the honeybee. However, other representatives are also mentioned across various social models, from solitary bees to those living in different levels of community life, up to large bee colonies. The second part of the thesis outlines the development of beekeeping, first at a general level and then within our country. It covers the inception of the relationship between humans and bees, the first pioneers of true beekeeping in the Mediterranean by Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans, and the development of beekeeping in our territory from the Middle Ages to the 20th century. The third and final part of the thesis is dedicated to the utilization of beekeeping in elementary schools. In this didactic section, various possibilities of incorporating bees into education across different subjects in elementary schools are described. The text includes proposals for topics and lesson plans, possible utilization of interdisciplinary relationships and tandem teaching, as well as suggestions for worksheets. The second part of the didactic work focuses on the beekeeping club at the elementary school, particularly its rules and types for its proper functioning....

Změny ve vývoji hltanových žláz a obsahu celkového proteinu v hemolymfě dělnic včely medonosné
Babica, Ondřej
This thesis is focused on developmental specifics of honeybees emerged during the season and on monitoring the differences between weak, medium and strong honeybee colonies. The level of the total haemolymph protein appears to be an important indicator of worker bee condition and signals of the occurrence of the winter generation of bees. The level of the total haemolymph protein of bees emerged in August was several times higher than the protein level of bees hatched from May to the end of July. The strong colonies showed the highest values of total haemolymph protein. The size of the hypopharyngeal glands (HPGs) indicates the biological aging of the workers and development of the bee colony during season. Nurses were characterized by the most developed HPGs, and foragers had HPGs atrophied. Bees emerged in the late summer had more developed HPGs. These physiological parameters are influenced by the division of labour in dependence of temporal and biological polyethism.

Vacuolar proteins in development of yeast colonies
Trubitsyna, Yana ; Palková, Zdena (advisor) ; Heidingsfeld, Olga (referee)
The laboratory strains of yeast Saccharomyces Cerevisiae form colonies which can differentiate into two main cell subpopulations. U and L cells demonstrate different morphology, metabolism and stress-resistance. It was also proved that some of metabolic pathways in U cells are a similar to ones in tumor cells. The unique metabolism is activated in U cells; the TORC1 is active in these cells together with autophagy and glycogen accumulation, which are characteristic for cells with inactivated TORC1. CORVET and HOPS complexes together with vacuolar ATPase are involved in processes related to vacuolar fusion and trafficking. Also, these complexes contribute to the regulation of TORC1 activity. Vam6p is a subunit of HOPS complex and it is also involved in regulation of TORC1 acting as GEF for Gtr1p GTPase, which activates TORC1. The aim of this study was to outline whether selected subunits of mentioned complexes affect TORC1 activity in U cells. Further aim was to confirm the effect of Vam6p on selected proteins production. These proteins were chosen based on results of proteomic analysis performed in our laboratory. In order to investigate possible effects of proteins of interest absence on colonies' morphology, strains deleted in selected genes were prepared (VPS3, VPS8, VPS33, VPS41, VPH2, VAC7 a...

Colonia Dignidad: (Self)Presentation and Reality. Crimes Exceeding the Borders
Uhlářová, Kateřina ; Kunštát, Miroslav (advisor) ; Nigrin, Tomáš (referee)
The bachelor thesis deals with the German colony in Chile, called "Colonia Dignidad". The "Dignity" colony was a cult led by Paul Schäfer in Chile from 1961 until his escape in 1997. Throughout its existence, its leadership has committed inhuman crimes of enormous proportions. The thesis presents not only the historical background and the development of the colony, it also focuses on the personality of its leader Paul Schäfer, the inner functioning and conditions prevailing within this cult. The key element is the description of crimes committed by the colony's leadership not only on its members but also beyond its borders. This thesis also works with political and legal issues, including public opinion and awareness. The aim of the bachelor thesis is to provide the reader with comprehensive information that will help to understand the deeper context and background of the "Colonia Dignidad" case. The bachelor thesis is processed chronologically. It brings an analysis of the themes associated with Colonia Dignidad and introduces the facts that - due to the low awareness and unavailability of adequate resources in the Czech Republic - the ordinary reader cannot simply get acquainted with. Individual chapters are devoted to individual topics. The bachelor thesis is divided into chapters dealing with...

Role mitochondria and retrograde signalization during development of yeast colony
Podholová, Kristýna ; Palková, Zdena (advisor) ; Heidingsfeld, Olga (referee)
Unicellular organisms such as yeast have been traditionally studied in shaken cultures, i.e., under condition in which they do not grow attached to solid surfaces as under natural conditions. In nature, cells only rarely live alone, but, on the other hand often create multicellular colonies or biofilms. During last years, yeasts started to be investigated also when grown on solid media. Our laboratory has previously developed special techniques for investigation of yeast colonies. These techniques allowed us to describe individual cell subpopulations within the colonies. The aim of this work was to prepare a series of mutant strains, describe morphology and ultrastructure of their colonies with the aim to contribute to understanding ofthe role of mitochondrial retrograde signalling pathway in the development of yeast colonies. This work describes expression of few selected genes (CIT2, RTG1, RTG2, and RTG3) in colonies of the parental strain BY4742 and of other mutant strains with deletion of one or more genes of RTG regulatory pathways. The results of the diploma thesis together with results of other authors became part of the publication (Podholová et al., 2016). Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)

Autophagy and other processes in colonies of natural yeast strains
Novosadová, Zuzana ; Palková, Zdena (advisor) ; Groušl, Tomáš (referee)
Abstract The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae on solid media forms multicellular colonies. Cells within colonies undergo differentiation and metabolic diversification, including formation of two layers of cells called Upper and Lower cells. The metabolic activity of U and L cells is different. For instance a higher level of autophagy was observed in U cells. This thesis includes a literature review of molecular mechanisms of autophagy in yeasts. Yeast colonies, under starvation conditions, produce volatile ammonia signal. This signal allows them communicate over a distance. Studies, revealing cell differentiation within colonies and ammonia signalling among colonies, were performed in colonies of laboratory strains. Strains isolated from nature, so-called wild strains, form distinct structured colonies, termed fluffy. Yeast within fluffy colonies also form different cell types. However the situation seems to be more complex that within smooth colonies of laboratory strains. Strains were constructed during this study, which express marker proteins Icl2p, Pox1p, Mae1p, Pma1p, Pma2p, Ino1p, Met17p and Atg8p fused with fluorescent labels in order to study cell differentiation and other processes within fluffy colonies. Furthermore, a new system for ...
