The aim of this thesis was to determine what influence the varying size of clearing and cover of the stand has on the gradual growth of Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii /Mirb./ Franco). The evaluation of different types of planting material (2 + 1, 2 + 2, 3 + 0 and f1 + k1) on partially covered locations is part of the thesis as well. Examination was conducted on research locations ÚZPL established in year 2010 (17 locations) and 2011 (4 locations) in the forests owned by the city of Brno. The survey was conducted after the end of the vegetation period in the months of September and November of the year 2013. It is a follow-up survey of the previous measurements realized in the fall of 2012. On all locations at least 100 individuals were measured and evaluated. These are the variables and signs assessed -- the overall size of the above ground part (in years 2012 and 2013), quantity of growth in each year, the thickness of the root neck, number of plants with multitude stems, the deviation of stem (straight, up to three times the diameter of the stem and more than three times diameter of the stem), the shape of the tree-top (triangle, ellipsoid, round and one-sided) the length of needles, the colour of the assimilatory part (green, bright green and yellow), loss percentage. These results were confronted with results from previous years. The results of this master thesis proved, that different size (and cover) of clearing and the used planting material have influence on the successful planting and growth of Douglas fir cultivation. The Douglas fir seems to be growing more successfully on locations protected at least from three sides where the width of clearing is no more than 35 metres. If quality planting material is used, low mortality of the plants can be expected as well. Aproximately after three years the quantity of growth and the thickness of the root neck on different locations start to match. On the locations protected from two sides and with the distance of the clearing from the stand not above the 1,5 multiple of the stand height, the covered-root plants (f1 + K1) and plant type 2+1 was proved to be most successful in growth and suffered from minimal loss even after three vegetation periods. The losses which occurred in 2013 were comparably lower to those in 2012.

The aim of this thesis is to analyze the development and growth of containerized and bare-rooted seedlings of Norway spruce on the plots situated on the Dolní Lomnice Forest District, a division of Karlovy Vary VLS ČR, s. p. (Army Forest and Estates of the Czech Republic). In this work addressed the following sub-tasks: comparison of mortality, height increment and increment of root collar, root development, analysis of cost recovery stands on the site. Three years after the founding of the plots it was discovered that containerized planting stock reached higher relative increment. When using a planting hole technology, the mortality was in both types of planting stock approximately similar. Furthermore, it was found that containerized planting stock planted with the planting hole technology, a higher incidence of advent naturally developed roots occurred. The planting technology using a loading mandrel (similar typesetter) used for containerized planting stock was assessed as an unsuitable and also the most frequent presence of unnatural root architectonics (deformations and secondary roots, if they were ever developed) it was demonstrated. An economic study showed that the overall costs for the forest regeneration using of the containerized planting stock are higher compared with the bare-rooted planting stock.

Purpose of final thesis deals to build forest nurseries on the territory of the forest administration Luhačovice, state company Lesy České republiky. The thesis describes the local conditions, the establishment of forest nurseries, but also information on forest management and the various technologies of cultivation of planting material. It is a complete study of that project are also evaluated in economic, biological and forestry. The goal is to create a forest nursery, which would produce planting stock for forest management Luhačovice.

The aim of thesis was to determine the effect of the different plantation biotechnique, different types of packaging and soil type for growing up of Norway spruce and European beech ball and balled planting stock. Measurements were performed on two plots within Management-plan area LESCUS Cetkovice Ltd. and it was a combination of medium-heavy-textured and heavy-textured soils. The types of planting for different types of planting stock were determined which were subsequently measured various parameters in the above-ground and underground parts of the plant. Based on the measured values, it was found which of the variants on the given soil grows best and which, on the other hand, is the worst. Furthermore, the strong influence of game on planted plants was detected. For afforestation are suitable ball and balled planting stock with type of packaging HIKO V-120 and HIKO V-350 for Norway spruce and European beech ball and balled planting stock with type of packaging HIKO V 265.

The thesis "Evaluation of Physiological Quality of Tree Planting Stock" deals with four testing methods to evaluate the physiological quality of planting stock and verifies their objectivity and usefulness for application in the natural conditions in the terrain at planting Norway spruce and European beech. These checked methods are: measuring of figures out percentage of water losses caused by a constant thermic stress, comparing weight before and after water saturation of close root balls, measuring of root balls humidity and measuring of chlorophyll fluorescence. The first three methods seem to be perspective and should by further testing and observations. The measuring of chlorophyll fluorescence cannot be used for water loss examination before planting. The development of available methods for determining physiological quality of tree planting stock is important for the success of planting in poor weather conditions.

The aim of the work was to determine the effect of different seeding biotechniques on overall plant growth and root system development of container seedlings of Norway spruce and European beech in 7. forest vegetation tier. The measurements were performed on two established experimental plots - Forest Management Complex Janovice, district Hubert on forest types 7P and 7K. The tested techniques were as follows: centre hole planting, planting stick, planting tube, planting spade, planting thorn, planting prong and planting cutter. Soil overlapping during planting was also observed. The parameters measured were: losses, height of above - round part, increments, root collar thickness, ratio of roots growing out from root package, vitality and biotic and abiotic damages. The results clearly show that the differing biotechnique of planting has influence on Norway spruce and European beech growth and root system development. Both species on plot 7K grew better and had more expansive root systerm when center planting method was used. On plot 7P the best results for Norway spruce were achieved with planting cutter with overlapping and for European beech with planting spade without overlapping. The center planting method had the lowest losses for both species.

The aim of this work was to find out how different planting biotechnique of the seed and different site have an impact on growth of container-grown planting material. It was planted norway spruce, european beech and sessile oak on SLT (czech typology system) 5K and 5G. Spruce and beech was planted with five different types of seedlings and oak with three different types. The influence of root ball overlap during planting was also investigated. Measurements took place in 2016, 2017 and 2018. In particular, the following parameters were investigated: the length of the aerial part, the increment, the thickness of the root neck, the length and width of the assimilation organs, the vitality, number of roots rooted in the root ball and the losses. The results show that, the growth of the container-grown planting material is influenced by different biotechnology of seedlings and sites. Planted plants grew better at 5K than at 5G. Best for norway spruce was planting cutter biotechnique for both sites. Best for european beech was center hole planting biotechnique, eventually planting thorn biotechnique. Best for sessisle oak was center hole planting biotechnique. The root pack is better to overlap with a layer of soil during planting.

The aim of this Master thesis was to assess the survival and growing out of container planting stock for the Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst) and the European beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) after the set period of stressing by dessication due to incorrect manipulation. The plants exposed to desiccation for 2, 3, 4 and 5 days were planted in a research area. During the first day of testing, the variant for checking of unstressed planting stock was planted. The research also included the testing of new methods for assessing root ball water loss during plant desiccation. The method for measuring the decrease in weight of a root ball during manipulation was used and two devices for measure moisture levels in root balls were tested (HH2 and WHT 860). The first assessment was carried out five weeks after planting out, during which vitality and sprouting progress were assessed. The second assessment took place at the end of the vegetation period, and vitality, duration of apical increment, thickness of the rootcollar and the length of needles and leaves were assessed. It was confirmed that with an increased duration of root ball desiccation comes the loss of moisture which after a certain period of time negatively impacted the survival and growing out of the tested plants. The limit for the root ball was a 3-day-long exposure of the planting stock to desiccation. The spruce planting stock is significantly more resistant to the negative effects of radiation and desiccation than the beech planting stock. The minimal threshold for moisture levels was set, determining when the planting stock can grow out without any major problems. The tested methods appear to be promising and can be used to assess the planting stock quality before the planting.

The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different plantation biotechnics on growth of Scots pine and pedunculate oak containerized planting stock. Both types of planting stock were grown to the same technology type used plantpot QUICK POT D 60 T/12 and 15. Monitoring was carried out by two research areas that have different soil conditions. It was a sandy soil and ground water affected. These areas were located in the Hradec Králové region. We tested following plantation biotechnics: hole planting, planting spade, planting fork, planting thorn and planting stick. It was also monitored overlaps the root ball of a layer of mineral soil. The evaluation was carried out by one growing season after planting. Plant mortality, parameters of above-ground plants part, damage of biotic and abiotic factors, plants vitality and especially root system were monitored. Based on the evaluation of these observations and measurements it has been found which plantation biotechnics are appropriate or not unsuitable for the growing of planting stocks, depending on site soil conditions. The outcome of this work is an overall assessment of individual planting biotechnics and recommendations that the most suitable planting biotechnics for reforestation from above-mentioned planting stock is planting hole.
