In 2006, the malting varieties of spring barley Marnie, Nadir, Timori, and Xanadu were registered in the Slovak Republic. The variety Marnie had extract content ca 81.9 %, activity of hydrolytic enzymes was high, which was reflected in high degree of attenuation. The variety Nadir had extract content ca 82.2 %, activity of proteolytic and amylolytic enzymes was high, modification of cell wall modification was lower and it exhibited high degree of attenuation.The variety Timori had extract content ca 80.2 %, activity of proteolytic and amylolytic enzymes was optimum but activity of cytolytic enzymes was low. The advantages of this variety is low lipoxygenase...

The crucial role of plant photosynthesis has been emphasized in relation to the atmospheric CO2 concentration and climate change. Because of the irreplaceable role of plants in ecosystem services, potential changes of both crop and wild plants could impact sustainability of human societies. The dependence of the rate of photosynthesis of the C3 and C4 plants on irradiance, CO2 concentration and temperature has been illustrated. Potential consequences of the atmospheric CO2 concentration rise and climate change on ecosystem composition and functions are briefly described.(In Czech, English summary only)
