Description
Summary:The Tree of Heaven (Ailanthus altissima) is an invasive deciduous tree, which has spread to every continent except Antarctica from its original area. It came to the Czech Republic in the 19th century as ornamental tree to the gardens of castles and parks. Later it spread to surrounding cities, but also into wild nature. Nowadays we find it in the Czech Republic primarily in hotter and drier areas and human disturbed areas. Its occurrence in these areas may suggest ideal conditions, which A. altissima seeks for its growth and spread. Studied conditions in this bachelor thesis are light, temperature, soil, water availability and overall environment, which A. altissima finds in its native and non-native area. Limits for the individual conditions were investigated, and these could define, where A. altissima can appear and where it cannot. Then everything was linked to the conditions in the Czech Republic. The results show that its appearance in the Czech Republic is mostly affected by altitude and average annual temperature linked with it. Shading limits A. altissima, but less than it was expected. When it comes to soil and water availability, A. altissima is very undemanding. The question is if A. altissima has already managed to occupy every location where it is able to grow in the Czech Republic and. Pajasan žláznatý (Ailanthus altissima) je invazní listnatý strom, který se ze svého původního areálu rozšířil na všechny kontinenty kromě Antarktidy. Do České republiky se dostal na počátku 19. století jako okrasný strom do zámeckých zahrad a parků. Později zplaněl a začal se šířit v okolí měst, ale i do volné přírody. Dnes ho v Česku nacházíme především v teplejších a sušších regionech a člověkem narušených oblastech. Převážný výskyt na těchto lokalitách by mohl vypovídat o ideálních podmínkách, které A. altissima vyhledává ke svému růstu a šíření. Studovanými podmínkami v této bakalářské práci byly světlo, teplota, půda, dostupnost vody a celkově prostředí, ve kterém se A. altissima v původním i nepůvodním areálu ...
