We present a unified and systematic approach to basic principles of Arbology, a new algorithmic discipline focusing on algorithms on trees. Stringology, a highly developed algorithmic discipline in the area of string processing, can use finite automata as its basic model of computation. For various kinds of linear notations of ranked and unranked ordered trees it holds that subtrees of a tree in a linear notation are substrings of the tree in the linear notation. Arbology uses pushdown automata reading such linear notations of trees as its basic model of computation. Basic principles known from stringology are used for the construction of particular arbology algorithms, in which the underlying tree structure is processed with the use of the pushdown store. Arbology results are shown for the basic problems subtree matching and tree indexing for ranked and unranked ordered trees.
The effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation and organic slow release fertilizer (OSRF) on photosynthesis, root phosphatase activity, nutrient acquisition, and growth of Ipomoea carnea N. von Jacquin ssp. fistulosa (K. Von Martinus ex J. Choisy) D. Austin (bush morning glory) was determined in a greenhouse study. The AMF treatments consisted of a commercial isolate of Glomus intraradices and a non-colonized (NonAMF) control. The OSRF was applied at 10, 30, and 100 % of the manufacturer's recommended rate. AMF plants had a higher net photosynthetic rate (PN), higher leaf elemental N, P, and K, and generally greater growth than NonAMF plants. Total colonization levels of AMF plants ranged from 27 % (100 % OSRF) to 79 % (30 % OSRF). Root acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities were generally higher in AMF than non-AMF plants. When compared to NonAMF at 100 % OSRF, AMF plants at 30 % OSRF had higher or comparable ACP and ALP activity, higher leaf elemental P, N, Fe, Cu, and Zn, and a greater PN (at the end of the experiment), leading to generally greater growth parameters with the lower fertility in AMF plants. We suggest that AMF increased nutrient acquisition from an organic fertilizer source by enhancing ACP and ALP activity thus facilitating P acquisition, increasing photosynthesis, and improving plant growth. and L.

Saline soils spread wildly in the world, therefore it is important to develop salt-tolerant crops. We carried out a pot study in order to determine effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) (Rhizophagus irregularis and Glomus versiforme) in black locust seedlings under salt (NaCl) stress. The results showed that AMF enhanced in seedlings their growth, photosynthetic ability, carbon content, and calorific value. Under salt stress, the biomass of the seedlings with R. irregularis or G. versiforme were greater by 151 and 100%, respectively, while a leaf area increased by 197 and 151%, respectively. The seedlings colonized by R. irregularis exhibited a higher chlorophyll content, net photosynthetic rate, intercellular CO₂ concentration, stomatal conductance, and transpiration rate than that of the nonmycorrhizal seedlings or those colonized by G. versiforme. Both R. irregularis and G. versiforme significantly enhanced a carbon content, calorific value, carbon, and energy accumulations of black locust under conditions of 0 or 1.5 g(NaCl) kg-1(growth substrate). Our results suggested that AMF alleviated salt stress and improved the growth of black locust., X. Q. Zhu, M. Tang, H. Q. Zhang., and Obsahuje bibliografii
In this study, we hypothesized that colonization of olive trees (Olea europaea L.) with the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Rhizophagus irregularis could modify the profiles of rhizosphere microbial communities with subsequent effects on nutrient uptake that directly affects olive tree physiology and performance. In this context, a greenhouse experiment was carried out in order to study the effects of mycorrhizal colonization by R. irregularis on photosynthesis, pigment content, carbohydrate profile, and nutrient uptake in olive tree. After six months of growth, photosynthetic rate in mycorrhizal (M) plants was significantly higher than that of nonmycorrhizal plants. A sugar content analysis showed enhanced concentrations of mannitol, fructose, sucrose, raffinose, and trehalose in M roots. We also observed a significant increase in P, K, Ca, Mg, Zn, Fe, and Mn contents in leaves of the M plants. These results are important, since nutrient deficiency often occurs in Mediterranean semiarid ecosystems, where olive trees occupy a major place., M. Tekaya, B. Mechri, N. Mbarki, H. Cheheb, M.

The study focuses on the repertory of the literary brotherhood in Roudnice nad Labem. It aims to evaluate a recently discovered inventory of 1591, and attempts to dating two musical manuscripts, currently kept in Roudnice priory (CS-ROU A and CS-ROU B). The first, a fragment of a multivolume gradual was identified as one of the items listed in the above-mentioned inventory. The second, rorate hymn-book with added polyphonic voices – whose pertinence to the repertory of the local literate brotherhood was, however, not possible to prove – contains extended quadriple voice mass with seven parts, which is analysed in detail by the study
This arčcicle present analysis of a teat number of palaeobotanic samples from 13 historic plots, archaeologiccally excavated 1983 - 1992 in the town of Brno. On this outstandingly large archaeobtanic material changes of the pectrum of plant remains were reviewed for the high medieval ages (and Postmedieval period). For the first time in the Czech Republic this large number of sampled featrues (mainly cesspits) enabled to conclusively monitor the vaying importance of certain utility plant species during a long time span. Also changes in accompaying weed vegetation, icnicating the origins and agrotechniques of cultivated plants were observed. Spectrum of the local synanthrope vegetation fefelct improving hygienic situation within the inbuilt area of Brno town. Timbre/charcoal analysis consclusively refelcts variable sources of wood/ charcoal for the medieval (Postmedieval) town., Petr Kočár, Romana Kočárová, Emanuel Opravil, Rudolf Procházka., and Obsahuje seznam literatury
