Family Poaceae is one of the most derived groups of monocots. Major mechanisms of grasses evolution and particularly of tribe Triticeae and genus Elymus are polyploidisation and hybridisation. Presented diploma thesis assessed frequency and direction of hybridisation between Elymus hispidus and E. repens in Central Europe. Thesis also evaluated evolutionary importance (significantly higher ratio of hybridisation and polyploidisation) of hybrid swarm in Nature Reserve Čertoryje (Bílé Karpaty Mountains/the White Carpathians, the Czech Republic). Putative hybridizing populations were 14,4 % of sampled localities, i.e. direct presence hybrids (7,9 %) or both parental species (8,4 %). Aneuploids and higher polyploids were found exclusively in Čertoryje hybrid swarm, except one putative DNA nonaploid plant. The genome in situ hybridisation confirmed and improved knowledge of particular species/cytotypes chromosome counts and further specified their genome composition. GISH newly characterized genome composition of interspecific hybrids and higher allopolyploids and revealed their heterogeneous origin. Flow cytometry revealed continuum of absolute genome sizes among parental species and their hybrid. The continuum was rather asymmetric in direction towards E. hispidus. Model hybrid swarm Čertoryje produce...
