Vliv dostupnosti živin na mykorhizní symbiózu lučních rostlin
PECKOVÁ, Tereza
Arbuscular mycorrhizal symbiosis occurs in most of the vascular plants. One of the factors influencing expression of a symbiosis is the availability of nutrients in soil. This thesis explores how different levels of phosphorus and nitrogen affect the colonisation and community of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and fine root endophytes (FE) in monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants. Increased phosphorus availability resulted in lower AMF and FE colonisation, especially in monocotyledonous plants. Nitrogen addition to soil resulted in greater FE colonisation and dominance of a single taxon in the AMF community. The lowest levels of colonisation and the greatest taxonomic diversity were found in plants fertilised with both nutrients.

Variability in the response of exodermis to nutrient deficiencies in the environment
Klvaňová, Renáta ; Tylová, Edita (advisor) ; Konrádová, Hana (referee)
v angličtině Plant growth and development is largely dependent on the soil environment which is a source of minerals and water needed for plants to survive. However, the availability of these resources in the soil is very heterogenous and important elements can be leached into the lower parts of the soil or bound to soil particles. Plants have therefore developed a number of adaptations during evolution to increase the efficiency of the root system. One of these aspects are the apoplastic barriers (endodermis and exodermis). Both of these layers affect the transport of substances to and from the root, thereby limiting unregulated apoplastic transport through modifications of the cell walls where the polymers that limit the transport of substances are deposited. These are Casparian bands and suberin lamellae. They often differentiate more rapidly when plants are faced with a stress factor such as drought, salinity or toxicity. However, nutrient deficiencies (e.g. N, P, K and Fe) also affect the rate of differentation. Deficiencies can result in both acceleration and deceleration of differentation, which seems to help optimize root transport properties according to the current conditions. However, this reaction has been less studied so far. This work therefore focuses on the analysis of the response...

Root system development in the early phases of plant ontogeny
Mašková, Tereza ; Weiser, Martin (advisor) ; Šmilauer, Petr (referee)
Root system development in the early phases of plant ontogeny Seed germination and subsequential developement of the root system is a critical stage of life of a newly rising plant. The plant must recognise and suitably and quickly find an answer to the environmental conditions in which it finds itself. However, the way in which the root system develops and its final architecture depends not only on the environmental conditions but also on the plant itself. In addition, responses to different conditions may vary among different plant species. This work examines the developement of a root system in the first four weeks of a plant's life. It observes the dependence on the amount of available nutrients in the substrate and on the amount of available nutrients the seed is given by the mother plant. It also briefly touches on the relations between seed germination, seed size and the amount of available nutrients. No differences relating to the amount of available nutrients were found in seed germination. However, differences in germination speeds were found between plant species. Plant biomass increases with the increasing amount of available nutrients in the substrate. This increase is relatively greater for plant species with a small seed size. Plant species with a big seed size invest relatively more...
