Nearctic Dactylogyrus species (Platyhelminthes, Monogenea) parasitizing cypriniform fishes in the context of morphology and phylogeny, with descriptions of seven new species

Ribosomal DNA sequences are currently available for 32 morphologically recognized species of Dactylogyrus parasitizing Nearctic cypriniforms, but only 16 of them are assigned to nominal species. Herein, morphological data on 28 of the 32 species are provided, together with comments on their phylogenetic relationships in the context of the morphology of taxonomically important structures. Seven new species of Dactylogyrus are described from five species of leuciscids and one species of catostomids, as follows: D. aduncus n. sp. from Campostoma spadiceum, D. cloutmani n. sp. from Luxilus chrysocephalus isolepis, D. cornifrons n. sp. from Cyprinella venusta, D. fimbratus n. sp. from Rhinichthys cataractae, D. mcallisteri n. sp. from Semotilus atromaculatus, and D. chieni n. sp. and D. haneki n. sp. from Hypentelium nigricans. Four previously described species of Dactylogyrus, D. atromaculatus from S. atromaculatus, D. eos from C. neogaeus, D. parvicirrus from Notemigonus crysoleucas and D. perlus from L. c. isolepis, are redescribed and/or figured. As for the remaining 17 species, only the male copulatory organs (MCOs) taken from the respective hologenophores are illustrated. On the basis of phylogenetic analyses, two main clades of Nearctic Dactylogyrus were recognized and supported by the different morphology of the MCO. The first one included 22 strictly Nearctic species sharing the same MCO type with Dactylogyrus spp. parasitizing cyprinids likely of Asian origin. The second clade encompassed Dactylogyrus spp. with diverse MCO morphology and was placed in the sister position to Dactylogyrus spp. parasitizing European leuciscids and North-West African cyprinids

Japan's Defence Policy at the Turn of 18th and 19th Century

This thesis discusses the topic of Tokugawa shogunate defense policy at the turn of 18th and 19th century. This period is defined by the arrival of Adam Laxman's expedition to Japan in 1791 and the year of 1825, which is defined by the adoption of the Edict to Repel Foreign Vessels (ikokusen učiharai rei 異国船打ち払い令) and the publication of the key work of the Confucian scholar Aizawa Seishisai (会沢正志斎, 1782-1863), the New Thesis (Shinron 新論). The aim of the thesis is to analyze in detail the steps of the shogunate government defense policy based on the analysis of specific historical events, and to answer the research questions. Given the topic of the thesis, I consider it necessary to put Japanese defense policy in a broader context. The first two chapters are devoted to the time period that chronologically precedes the period defined in the thesis topic and they analyze Japanese defense policy and foreign relations during the 17th century. Chapter 1 focuses on contacts in the southeast and the roots of Christian missions in Japan. Chapter 2 discusses the shogunate's contacts on the northern border. The following part of the thesis focuses on the intellectual tradition and the spread of the Dutch learning in Japan. The main content of the fourth and fifth chapter is the analysis of specific events at the turn...Předkládaná práce diskutuje bezpečnostní politiku tokugawského šógunátu na přelomu 18. a 19. století. Toto období v úzkém měřítku vymezuje příjezdem expedice Adama Laxmana do Japonska v roce 1791 a rokem 1825, který je charakterizován přijetím Zákona o nesmlouvavém zahánění cizích lodí (ikokusen učiharai rei 異国船打ち払い令) a vydáním stěžejního díla konfuciánského učence Aizawy Seišisaie (会沢正志斎, 1782-1863), Nových tezí (Šinron 新論). Cílem práce je detailně analyzovat bezpečnostní kroky šógunátní vlády na základě rozboru konkrétních dějinných událostí ve vymezeném období a tím odpovědět na zvolené výzkumné otázky. Vzhledem k tématu práce považuji za nutné japonskou bezpečnostní politiku zasadit do širšího kontextu. První dvě kapitoly jsou věnovány obdobím, která časovému úseku vymezenému v tématu práce chronologicky předchází. Analyzují bezpečnostní politiku a zahraniční vztahy Japonska v průběhu 17. století. První kapitola se specificky zaměřuje na kontakty probíhající v jihovýchodním směru a kořeny křesťanských misií v Japonsku. Druhá kapitola diskutuje kontakty šógunátu na severní hranici. Následující část práce se soustředí na intelektuální tradici a šíření holandských věd v Japonsku. Hlavní náplní čtvrté a páté kapitoly je rozbor konkrétních událostí v časovém období na přelomu 18. a 19. století.

Effect of inter-annual differences of selected meteorological parameters on species composition of the Wet meadows near Třeboň

The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the inter-annual differences in species composition of selected stands of a wet meadow ecosystem in relation to determining meteorological parameters. Changes in plant communities were studied in selected parts of the Wet meadows near Třeboň. Inter-annual differences were found only in the cover of dominant species, but not in the constancy of species.The average cover of Phalaris arundinacea was greater in 2007 than in 2006. A further increase was observed in 2007 in the cover of Calamagrostis canescens, whose presence on the wet meadows was previously limited by the floods in 2002. Calamagrostis canescens again appeared on the Wet meadows in 2006, but its growth was promoted only in the drier year 2007. The results show that the community is relatively stable in relation to short-term fluctuations of the weather

EFFECT OF MOWING ON SPECIES COMPOSITION AND ABOVEGROUND BIOMASS OF A EUTROPHIE WET MEADOW

The bachelor thesis is part of Project No. 526/06/0276 of the Grant Agency of the Czech Republic, entitled Eutrophication of wet meadows: effect on plant {--} soil interactions with emphasis on carbon and nitrogen transformations, in which the Institue of Systems Biology and Ecology of the Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic takes part. The aim of this work is to document the condition of a waterlogged herbaceous stand that had not been mown for more than 30 years, as well as of adjacent stands subject to different frequencies of mowing, all of them situated in the complex of the Wet Meadows near Třeboň. The work addresses the current state of the vegetation in respect of species composition and biomasss production on a selected part of the Wet Meadows. The results are compared with results of research that has been carried out on the locality during the previous 30 years. The conclusions confirm that the vegetation becomes unstable, with prevailing competitively strong and synanthropic species, especially Symphytum officinale, Urtica dioica, and Rumex obtusifolius. Phalaris arundinacea is becoming the dominant species of the waterlogged and mown part of the Wet Meadows
