Annotation of project:
The goals of the project are (1) to describe changes in metabolite profile of barley plants (Hordeum vulgare) and dynamics of their physiological (photosynthesis) and morphological (growth) responses during the acclimation to various intensities of ultraviolet radiation (UV-A and UV-B) in combination with photosynthetically active radiation, (2) to analyse main limitation processes of photosynthesis, and (3) to study the functional connection between changes in plants metabolite profile and their physiological and morphological responses. We will focus on metabolites that have protective functions in photosynthesis, significantly influence plants development or they have important nutrition potential.

Annotation of project:
The aim of the project is to contribute to the development of a scientifically sound procedures for the representative sampling, preparation, processing of the samples and analysis of the selected wood samples, particularly Norway spruce, as well as selected cereals or pseudocereals, such as buckwheat, on the content of lignans and their distribution. Further to optimize preparation procedures, the extraction and analysis with the emphasis on the relatively common lignans, such as matairesinol, hydroxymatairesinol, secoisolariciresinol and lariciresinol. Besides these lignans try to identify by using modern instrumental methods other minority lignans, including enterolignans. Besides the description of the occurrence and distribution of the selected lignans and enterolignans in the biomass of the trees and cereals or pseudocereals, try to identify these substances in the ecosystem of the river Vltava.

Biologically active compounds of invasive plants in the forest ecosystem
Provider: Ministerstvo školství, mládeže a tělovýchovy
Recipient: Ústav výzkumu globální změny AV ČR, v. v. i.
Keywords: The invasive plants; biologically active compounds; quinones.
Web of the project: http://www.isvav.cz/projectDetail.do?rowId=LD11014
Detail of project in RVVI: RVVI
Annotation of project:
The invasive plants like Reynoutria species (Reynoutria japonica, R. sachalinensis, R. x bohemica) and Impatiens species (Impatiens glandulifera, I. parviflora) which uncontrollably spread not only in Europe. These plants create compact growth along waterways and forest ecosystems. They are now inconvenient weed in the above mentioned ecosystem. However, these plants contain many secondary metabolites which have significant biologically activite properties e.g. stilbens and anthraquinones in Reynoutria species, napthoquinones in Impatiens species. Anthraquinones and napthoquinones revealed allelochemical, fungicidal, insecticidal activity, some of them also estrogenic activity. The growths of these invasive plants are wiped out both mechanically and chemically. The plant bodies decayed very slowly and poorly. Therefore the plant materials of invasive plants should serve as cheap material for isolation of the biologically active substances, like quinones and their derivatives.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Prof. RNDr. Pavel Kindlmann, DrSc., a distinguished Czech ecologist, mathematician, and long-time collaborator of CzechGlobe.
Professor Kindlmann headed the Department of Biodiversity at the Global Change Research Institute of the Czech Academy of Sciences from 2001 to 2023. His research focused primarily on population biology and the application of mathematical approaches in ecology. He inspired and mentored generations of students at the University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice, the Faculty of Science of Charles University, and numerous universities abroad, where he held visiting appointments.
Professor Kindlmann was devoted to nature not only through his scientific work but also through his deep personal commitment. He actively participated in public discussions on nature conservation, advocating for the protection of his beloved orchids and for the preservation of the unique natural values of Šumava National Park.
His passing is a great loss to the Czech scientific community and to all who had the privilege of knowing and working with him.
May he rest in peace.

The Clim4Cast forecasting tool was presented at the EGU General Assembly 2026 in Vienna by Lukáš Dolák. The original contribution was also chosen to be presented at a press conference for journalists, along with 17 other contributions out of a total of 20,000. Within the Press conference (https://www.egu.eu/gamedia/2026/press-conferences/#PC1), the most outstanding Clim4Cast outputs were introduced, including the forecasting tool. The attending journalists appreciated both the web platform and the tool. We honestly hope that this event contributed to spreading the word not only among journalists but also to the wider public and researchers.
