prirodne vrijednosti kontinentalne Hrvatske a posebice Meimurja. Pretpostavljam da je

Esteemedcolleagues,dearbiologists!

Forthoseofyouwho,forsomeunknownreasons,readforewordsinBooksofAbstractsI
wishtoemphasizethattimesarenotfavourablefororganisingcongressesandmostofall
those that are so comprehensive as CroatianBiological Congress. In this twelfth CBCwe
reducedthenumber ofcongresstopicsinordertobringtogetherbiologistswithsimilar
scientificinterestsandweincreasedthenumberofsatelliteSymposia.Also,wedecidedto
hold this Congress at Sveti Martin na Muri in order to accentuate values of continental
Croatia and especially Meimurje region for us biologists. I suppose that these changes
th
might have had some influence on your decision to attend 12 Croatian Biological
CongressasthisBookofAbstractscontain8plenaryand5invitedlectures,125oraland

Thefieldofbiologyinthe21 centuryisfacedwithmanychallengesthedevelopment
and application of new technologies has greatly affected our knowledge regarding the
livingworldatalllevelsoforganizationanduncoveredmanynewandinterestingresearch
areas. Although always a very dynamic field of study, modern biology is probably more
efficientandfasterinacquiringvaluableinformationnowthanever.Thisleadstocritical
reexaminations and initiations of new research, even within more "classical" biological
disciplines.Biologistsarestillaveryimportantandvitalpartofcomplexresearchteamsin
different related scientific fields. The increased amount of new knowledge also brings
challengesforbiologistsinvolvedineducation,startingfromprimaryschooltouniversity
level. They now have to find new solutions and ways to present this new knowledge to
theirstudents.
One of the most important assumptions that underlie modern science is the need for a
faster and more dynamic flow of information. Conferences have therefore become an
important place for meeting researchers and experts who communicate the results of
theirresearchandengageinfruitfuldiscussions,leadingtojointresearchprojects.
th
Byorganizingits12 congress,theCroatianBiologicalSocietysuccessfullycontinuesthe
longstanding tradition of joining scientists and experts active in the field of biology and
related scientific fields. We hope that the enticing scientific program of this year's

PROTEININTERACTIONNETWORKSINHEALTH&DISEASE

I.tagljar
Departments of Biochemistry and Molecular Genetics, Donnelly Centre, University of
Toronto,Canada

Inthepastdecade,numerouscomprehensiveproteomicsstudieshaveallowedresearchers
to generate detailed proteinprotein interaction ("interactome") maps, providing an
unparalleledglobalviewoftheinterplaybetweenthedifferentsystemswithinthecell,and
greatly increasing our understanding of the physiological mechanisms involved in both
normal and disease states. My lab is focused specifically on understanding how the
interactions of membrane proteins contribute to cellular disease states at a systems level.
Despite extensive proteomics research in the past decade, there is a lack of indepth
understandingofproteinnetworks associatedwithintegralmembraneproteinsbecauseof
their unique biochemical features, enormous complexity and multiplicity. This is a major
obstacletounderstandingthebiologyofderegulationofintegralmembraneproteinswhich
leadstonumeroushumandiseases,andconsequentlyhindersourdevelopmentofimproved
and more targeted therapies to help treat these diseases. To address this problem, my lab
hasdevelopedtwouniquetechnologiesspecificallysuitedforthestudyoffulllengthintegral
membraneproteinsintheirnaturalcellularcontext;theclassicMembraneYeastTwoHybrid
(MYTH) 15 and the newly created Mammalian Membrane TwoHybrid(MaMTH)6. Our
ultimate goal is to uncover a wealth of information about protein interactions for the
majority of "druggable" human membrane proteins, which should in turn greatly facilitate
the discovery of new truths about diseases like cancer, schizophrenia, cystic fibrosis,
hypertension and Parkinsons disease. During my talk, I will discuss our recent findings
indicatingthattheapplicationofMaMTHtothehumanEpidermalGrowthFactorReceptor
(EGFR)resultedintheidentificationofCrkIIproteinasanovelinteractorofoncogenicEGFR
(L858R),andshowedthatCRKIIpromotespersistentactivationofaberrantsignalinginnon
small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells. I will also illustrate how MaMTH is a powerful tool for
investigating dynamic interactomes of human integral membrane proteins and why it

Recent advances in understanding of evolutionary life cycle of genes reveal that gain and
lossofgenefamiliesismajorfactorintheevolutionofgenomecomposition.However,itis
unclear how gene family birthanddeath rates fluctuate at the macroevoutionary scale.
Consequently it is obscure how genome complexity changed during evolutionary time in
different lineages. Here, using phylostratigraphic approach and newly developed
bioinformatic toolkit, we measured gene family birthanddeath rates at the phylogenetic
tree comprising more than 600 eukaryotic genomes. We found that, in terms of time,
th

genome reduction is predominant mode of evolution sporadically interrupted by the rapid

bursts of gene family gain. These episodes of gene family gain correlate with the major
macroevolutionarytransitions.

DIVERGENCEANDCONSTRAINTINTHEORIGINOFNEWSPECIES

P.Nosil
RoyalSocietyofLondon,UniversityofSheffield,UnitedKingdom

Theoriginofnewspeciescreatesbiologicaldiversityandunderstandingspeciesformationis
thus a key goal in biology. In this talk, I will tackle the issue of why some populations that
begin the speciation process diverge further than others, a phenomenon central to
understanding diversification. Using a combination of theoretical modeling and empirical
studies of plantfeeding insects I will show how adaptation to different ecological
environments generally promotes speciation. However, this process can be constrained or
counteracted by numerous factors. Specifically, speciation can stall 'partway' before
completion due to: an insufficient number of genetic differences underlying adaptive
divergence, ecological shifts that are too modest to drive strong divergence, and selective
processesthatincreasegeneticmixingbetweenpopulations.Theoriginofnewdiversitythus

unsolvedchallengeishowtoorganize instructionstoachieveat least a part oflistedgoals
balancing between welltested practices what worked in the past and enthusiasm of
untested novelties. Because we cannot treat instructions and school activities as from the
societyisolated and valuefree systems, Biology teachers cannot avoid teaching and follow
up classroom discussions of sensitive themes. Beside already "traditional" themes like
environmental education is nowadays in the middle of public interest biotechnology with
themeslikegeneticengineering,geneticallymodifiedorganisms (GMOs),foodfromGMOs,
therapeutic and reproductive cloning, substitute maternity, cloning of human, impact of
GMOs on human health, health of animals, and environment, etc. To cover the social and
scientific aspects of such the term "socioscientific issue" was coined. From the socio
scientific view, such issues are frequently controversial and, especially in cases when they
becomethesubjectofpublicinterestdebates,areoftenbackedupwithlimitedknowledge
and strong attitudes. In educational practice, such public debates are reflected in the
classroom, where teachers are challenged by complex issues, where proficiency in one
th

discipline is in most cases insufficient to answer students curiosity. When such a theme is
assigned to a Biology teacher, probably the most important obstacle is that teachersoften
lackappropriateknowledgeaboutthesocialsideoftheissue.

PLANTRESPONSETOABIOTICSTRESS

D.BarZvi
BenGurionUniversity,BeerSheva,Israel

Being sessile organisms that cannot relocate, plants are continuously exposed to the ever
changing environment. To accommodate to these changes, plants evolved intensive
molecular, biochemical and physiological mechanisms to respond to hostile environments.
These changes include a global change in the transcriptome and proteome. I will discuss
three molecular examples for plant response to drought and salt stress: (a) Salt stress
impairschloroplaststructureandaffectsthisorganellesgeneexpressionandgenomecopy
number.(b)Transcriptionfactorsarekeyplayersinreachingnewsteadystatesintranscript
levels. The stress hormone, abscisic acid, regulated ABI4 transcription factor plays central
role in root biology under stress and nonstress conditions. ABI4 modulates the activity of
the Na+ transporter HKT1;1 and controls lateral root formation. (c) The Ubiquitin
Proteasome System (UPS) is a major pathway for controlled protein degradation in all
eukaryotes,includingplants.Proteinsdescendedfordegradationarecovalentlymarkedbya

organisms can show dramatic and measurable phenotypic responses after introductions to
novel environments in relatively short time spans. We have previously shown how lizards
(Podarcis sicula) have rapidly evolved differences in head morphology, bite strength, and
digestive tract structure after experimental introduction onto a small island in the Adriatic
Sea,Croatia.Despitetheshorttimescale(36years)sincethisintroduction,theintroduced
lizards became omnivores and evolved caecal valves in the hindgut, a structure rarely
observed in lizards. These changes in morphology and performance parallel those typically

HOW MUCH ROOM IS LEFT FOR CONVENTIONAL BIOLOGY IN MODERN NANOSCALE AND
OMICSRESEARCH

D.Drobne
DepartmentofBiology,Biotechnicalfaculty,Ljubljana,Slovenia

Traditionalbiologistsweretrainedtoworkataspecificlevelofbiologicalcomplexity,and/or
to investigate a specific group organisms. But now, many biologists call themselves
integrativebiologists.Alsoacademicunitsandstudyprogramshavechangedtheirnamesto
Integrative biology. What is "Integrative Biology"? Integrative biology has different
definitions. It could be defined as multidisciplinary/crossdisciplinary research of biological
systems. Multidisciplinarity means bringing together researchers from different, areas of
expertiseorusingadiversityoftechniquesandapproachestoaddressparticularquestions
(Wake 2003; Joyce and Palsson 2006). Integrative approaches seek both diversity and
incorporation. These approaches deal with integrations across all levels of biological
organization,frommoleculestothebiosphere,andwithdiversityacrosstaxa,fromviruses
toplantsandanimals.Manyofthequestionsnowbeingaddressedbybiologistsrequireboth
reductionistic and incorporative elements to contribute to an answer to a larger problem.
Biologists are coming to the realization that our ability to deal with questions of biological
complexity would benefit from high throughput systems biology, referred to as "omics"
technology.Integrated"omics"approacheshavecreatedexcitingopportunitiesforbiological

GLYCANS AS INTEGRATORS OF GENES AND ENVIRONMENT AN OFTENIGNORED LAYER
OFBIOLOGICALCOMPLEXITY

G.Lauc
UniversityofZagrebFacultyofPharmacyandBiochemistry

Glycosylation is an essential posttranslational modification generated by a complex

biosynthetic pathway comprising hundreds of glycosyltransferases, glycosidases,
transcriptionalfactors,ionchannelsandotherproteins.Thisprocessresultsinthecreation
of branched oligosaccharide chains, called glycans, which become integral part of proteins
andsignificantlycontributetotheirstructureandfunction.Nearlyallproteinsinventedafter

EU Natura 2000 Integration Project (NIP project) is a professional project of nature protection
sector, through it will be gathered existing and new data about distribution of species of the
selectedprioritytaxonomicgroups.Thefirstphaseoftheprojectforetellgatheringofliterature
and museum data for 13 taxonomic groups, and throughout the second gathering recent data
and laboratory analysis for 9 priority taxonomic groups. As a part of the project it will be also
made a detailed map of natural and seminatural nonforest habitats of Croatia. Example on
taxonomic group Plecoptera is showing the importance of faunistic projects in planning active
nature protection. According to the Red list of stoneflies (2007) in Croatia it was known 28
stoneflie species, and State Institute for Nature Protection disposed with 152 findings of
stoneflies. Analysing the available literature references and museum findings, and also field
researchfindingsin2014and2015,atotalof3979findingsfor110speciesweregathered.

Na temelju podataka prikupljenih uz pomo radarskog sustava i terenskih ornitolokih

istraivanja, mogue je donijeti preciznu procjenu o karakteristikama migracije, posebno o
smjeru, visini i intenzitetu. Istraivanje je provedeno u Bosni i Hercegovini, na planini Vele.
Osnovni cilj istraivanja je prikupljanje podataka o aktivnosti i kretanju ptica i otkrivanje
mogueg migracijskog koridora na istraivanom podruju uz pomo radarskog sustava. U
istraivanju su istovremeno koritena 2 morska radara u X frekvencijskoj zoni koji su radili u
razliitim modovima (vodoravni i uspravni). Podaci su sakupljani u periodu 24.8.26.9.2014.

Vele mountain. The main goal was to collect bird activity and movements data with radar
system in order to investigate possible migration corridor over the area.For collection of
migrationdatatwoXbandmarineradarswereusedsimultaneously,workingintwodifferent
modes (horizontal and vertical). Data was collected in the period from 24th August to 26th
September 2014. The radar data (signals on the radar screen) were captured using a "frame
grabber" card and recorded to a computer. Collected data consisted of several distance
measurements in relation to radar antennas including Euclidean distance, altitude and land
distance. To count a distancedependant probability of radar signals, a correction factor was
calculated using Distance software. Results showed seasonal and diurnal difference of
migration intensity. Use of radar system greatly contributes to better understanding of

Recentna istraivanja ukazuju da brojnost veine autohtonih vrsta opada kao rezultat

Recent evidences show that most species are declining as a result of human activities

man altered environments ("winners"). This is the case in freshwater ecosystems of the

PROTOCOL FOR ALERTING AND MONITORING OF DEAD, SICK OR INJURED STRICTLY

Departement for Wild and Domesticated Species and Habitats, Sea Section, State Institute
forNatureProtection,Zagreb,Croatia(info@dzzp.hr)

Several species of cetaceanas, dolphins and sea turtles are recorded for the Adriatic Sea.
Impact of human activities such as fishing and tourism makes those species highly
vulnerable. Due to the migratory nature of those species crossborder collaboration and
shared management responsibility between Adriatic states is crucial in order to plan
effective longterm conservation strategies. For that purpose, an international IPA Adriatic
project NETCET is launched. Since 2010, in the frame of National Alerting and Monitoring
System, State Institute for Nature Protection started cooperation with National Protection
and Rescue Directorate (112) on development of Protocol for Alerting and Monitoring of
dead, sick or injured strictly protected marine species. At the moment, Protocol involves
veterinary ambulances on the coast and islands, MEC Pula, Croatian Veterinary Insti tute,
Faculty of Veterinary Medicine and County offices responsible for ecovessels. The most
reportedspeciesareBottlenosedolphin(Tursiopstruncatus)andLoggerheadturtle(Caretta
caretta). In the last five years there have also been reports on Striped dolphin (Stenella
coeruleoalba), Cuvier's beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris) and Leatherback turtles
(Dermochelyscoriacea).AlldatacollectedthroughtheexistingProtocolareregisteredinthe

In this work, importance of cooperation on citizen, expert, legislative and regional level in
conservation and protection of strictly protected bat species is highlighted. Certain bat
species adapted to the cohabitation with humans due to roost loss primarily in forests.
Resolution 5.7 of UNEP/EUROBATS Agreement gives Guidelines for the Protection of
Overground Roosts, with Particular Reference to Roosts in Buildings of Cultural Heritage.
Smaller bat species of the genus Pipistrellus may find roosts that has opening more than 5
mm. Some other species of the genus Rhinolophus prefer abandoned houses or attics that
arerarelyused.Investigationbasedonthecitizencallswereconductedsince2009mostlyin
central part of Croatia. According to the proposed Protocol object type, age and usage

Simplified identification keys for organisms are important for many reasons. Using such keys
and observing the details, we could learn how to find similarities and differences between
organisms. We thus improve our powers of observation, which is nowadays quite often
replaced by slipshod neglect. Furthermore, we can familiarise ourselves with the exceptional
diversityofspeciesandactuallylearnafewnames.Wealsolearnthebasicstructureofakey.
Professionalidentificationkeysforplantsandanimals,usedbybiologists,areverycomplexand
practically useless for laymen. They include numerous technical terms and too much
informationtheydemandagreatdealofpriorknowledgefromthereader.Usingsimplified
identification keys, we can learn to classify plants and animals, which is one of the basic
activities of natural sciences. And this encourages our thirst for knowledge, since we often

We investigated the correlation of students' opting for occupations in the scientific field of
biology, with the interest shown and their life experiences. Transversal study was conducted
during 2010 on a sample of 2,114 students from 10 to 18 years of age. Affirmative students'
responsestothethematicareaofDevelopmentandachievementsofscience,withamean2.8

well as for biological reactions to physical factors. Biologically interested students were more
selective in their answers than the total sample. Biologically interested students also show the
drop of interest for school subject biology as they are older. Distinct connection between
professional choice for scientific work in the field of biology and a distinctive affinity for the
subject Biology (r = 0.87) were found. Students who wish to engage in some form of scientific

Slatkovodni sustavi na podruju dinarskog kra nastanjeni su osobito bogatom ribljom

zajednicom, s velikim udjelom endemskih vrsta. S ciljem objanjavanja nastanka tako velike
raznolikosti, predloeno je nekoliko dogaaja i pojava: geografska izolacija rijeka i njihova
povezanost kroz podzemlje, geoloka povijest, refugiji tijekom ledenih doba, specifine stope
mutacije. Za razliku od veine rodova slatkovodnih riba, rod Delminichthys nastanjuje malo
podruje i obuhvaa svega etiri vrste. Kako bismo otkrili populacijskogenetiku strukturu i
demografsku povijest vrsta ovoga roda, te tako pridonijeli razjanjavanju evolucije u
slatkovodnim sustavima Dinarida, proveli smo filogeografska i populacijskogenetika
istraivanja svih vrsta roda Delminichthys. Na temelju mitohondrijskih i jezgrinih biljega
sekvencianalizirali smo filogenetske odnose, razinugenetike raznolikosti unutarpopulacija i
vrsta te izmeu njih, kao i unutarvrsnu genetiku strukturu. Najznaajniji rezultati ukljuuju

determine phylogenetic and phylogeographic relationships of populations of this species based
on the analysis of two genetic markers, mitochondrial COI and 16S rRNA genes. Phylogenetic
relationships were reconstructed using different phylogenetic methods for each gene region
individually as well as for concatenated sets of sequences. Molecular phylogenetic analyses
established the existance of three geographically and genetically separated groups and two
subgroups. The obtained values of genetic distances indicate relatively young evolutionary

organisms are challenged to quickly adapt to these changes. We studied evolutionary
responses to pollution in marine environments using the Mediterranean mussel Mytilus
galloprovincialis. We sampled 15 natural populations along a pollution gradient and used a
subsetofthesetoperformtransplantexperimentsbetweencleanandpollutedenvironments
in both the wild and in lab mesocosms. The results of the experiments showed consistent
differential survival between treatments and source populationsdriven by an acclimatization
effectinthewildtransplantandbypopulationbyenvironmentinteractionsinthemesocosm
experiment.Forover1800musselsusedinthesestudieswecollectedgenomewideSNPdata
using a genotypebysequencing approach. These SNPs were analysed to test for genetic
structure in natural populations and the genomic architecture of survival (i.e., fitness) in the
experiments. By combining data obtained from the native populations and two types of
transplant experiments we identified interactions between environment, genotype, and
fitness, thus providing new insight into pollution driven evolution and the effect of adaptive
processesonthemusselgenome.

Understanding the genetic diversity and the phylogeography of Salvia officinalis L is the
prerequisiteforidentificationoftheoriginofthisspecies,aswellasforreconstructingitsareal
through the past. We analysed the sequence diversity of two chloroplast DNA regions of 86
individuals from 21 populations along the Adriatic coast and islands. After aligning the
sequences, a parsimony haplotype network was made using the TCS computer program.
Overall we found 9 chloroplast haplotypes. Four haplotypes were specific for southern
populations. Since the southern populations in addition to specific also have all the other
haplotypespresentinnorthAdriatic,weconcludedthattheyrepresentthegeneticsourcefor

Bryozoans are aquatic invertebrates that form large colonies by asexual budding. Each
individualwithinacolonyworksasaseparatezooidandisgeneticallyidenticaltoeachother
individual within the same colony. Most freshwater species of bryozoans belong to the
Phylactolaemata class, while several species that tolerate brackish water belong to the
Gymnolaemata class. Bryozoan samples were collected in the rivers of Adriatic and Danube
basin and in the wetland areas in the continental part of Croatia. Freshwater and brackish
taxons of bryozoans were genetically analyzed for the purpose of creating phylogenetic
relationships between freshwater and brackish taxons of the Phylactolaemata and
Gymnolaemata classes and determining the role of brackish species in colonizing freshwater
and marine ecosystems. Phylogenetic relationships inferred on the genes for 18S rRNA, 28S
rRNA, COI and ITS2 region confirmed Phylactolaemata bryozoans as radix bryozoan group.
Comparative analysis of existing knowledge about the phylogeny of bryozoans and the
expansion of known evolutionary hypotheses is proposed with the model of settlement of
marine and freshwater ecosystems by the bryozoans group during their evolutionary past.

The evaluation of real abundance of species like reptiles may be some time problematic
because those species may be very sensitive to environmental and weather conditions.
Consequently the possibility to evaluate the detection probability may be an important
result(McDiarmidetal.,2012).Furthermore,inMediterraneanislands,thedistributionsof
reptilesisstillincomplete(Ficetolaetal.,2014).Duringthespringof2014wecarriedoutan
extensive survey in four island of Croatia: Losinj, Unije, Susak, Ilovik. The aims of this field
campaign were:1. to assess the abundance of more common species of Lacertidae; 2. to
evaluatetheusefulnessofdetectionprobabilitymeasuredbymeansofrepeatedtransects;
3. to describe the microhabitat elements that may have an important role in species
abundance.We covered the islands with 60 transect (36 Losinj, 10 Unije, 6 Susak, 8 Ilovik),

we built models for three species (Algyroides nigropuntaus, Podarcis melliselensis and

The common lizard, Zootoca vivipara Lichtenstein 1823, also called the viviparous lizard, is a
smalllacertidlizardwellknownforitsreproductivebimodality.Ithasthelargestgeographical
distribution ofall lizards. It inhabitsalmostall ofEurope andnorthernpart ofAsia. Itsrange
also includes Croatiaand other Western Balkancountries. The geographicdistributionof the
common lizard in the Western Balkan presented in this talk was determined according to
published data with addition of unpublished field data from Croatia and Bosnia and
Herzegovina. We used four basic WorldClim variables to describe the preferred ecological
parameters within this range. We expected that these data would prove connectivity of
Croatian populations with populations of neighbouring countries (as its phylogenetic
relationshipwasshownbetweenCroatianpopulationandSlovenianandItalianpopulationsin
previous publications). Significant differences were found in ecological parameter preference
between all three subpopulations. The common lizard can inhabit various types of habitats,
from lowlands to high mountains. Results show that three separate subpopulations,
corresponding to three subspecies of common lizard, Zootoca vivipara vivipara Von Jacquin,

Western Palearctic water frogs (genus Pelophylax) is extremely complex genus with
approximately twelve species and three hybrid complexes. Today, water frogs are being
intensively studied, primarily because of the presence of hybrid complexes with hemiclonal
strategyofreproduction.Although,accordingtoliterature,theexistenceofhybridcomplexeshas
not been proven on the Balkan Peninsula, preliminary research into the morphological
characteristics of water frogs from the Skadar Lake (Montenegro) indicate that they do exist.
Since the determination of species and hybrids of water frogs on the basis of morphological
featuresisnotreliable,theaimofthisstudywastoanalysethewaterfrogsfromtheSkadarLake
usingmolecularmarkers.Thestudywasconductedon100samplesofwaterfrogs,whichwere
analysedusingnuclearmarker(serumalbuminintron1)andmitochondrialmarker(geneNADH
dehydrogenase subunit 3). The results showed the presence of species Pelophylax kurtmuelleri
and Pelophylax shqipericus, and mostly, a new, up to now undescribed hybrid complex. In this
study, species Pelophylax ridibundus, Pelophylax lessonae and their hybrid Pelophylax kl.
esculentuswerenotrecorded,althoughtheirpresencewaspossibleaccordingtotheliterature.

priorities) on the basis of distributional, ecological and lifehistory datasets (DELH). We
estimated which traits are the most important for the conservation of species. Separately,
weusedIUCNcriteriaforregionalleveltoassessextinctionriskandcomparedthemwiththe
results obtained by analyses of DELH datasets. The two types of criteria gave similar
estimates for the chelonian species. In snakes, two species exhibited higher conservation

Despite the great species diversity of the scincid, few useful determinative morphological
characteristics have been evaluated, related mainly to pholidotic and osteological
characters. Hemipenial morphology has been widely used in squamate interspecific
reptilestaxonomy. The currently available data for about 3% of the total scincid diversity
renders this topic widely unexplored. Here we present the first description of hemipenial

Exsitu animal keeping allows collecting high number of data that is difficult to collect in
nature.Zoologicalgardenshavealotofknowledgeinkeepingvarietyofanimalspeciesand
their husbandry. Also, they have space available, proper food and constant surveillance of
animals. Animals in captivity can be used for different kind of biological and veterinary
research, and also for education of public directly, or by implementing certain species in
educationprogramsforkids.Duringlastyears,Zagreb Zoohas beentakingpartinkeeping
and research of many native amphibian and reptile species, like Karst viper (Vipera ursinii
macrops), Adder (Vipera berus), Olm (Proteus anguinus), Balkan Terrapin (Mauremys
rivulata), Snakeeyed skink (Ablepharus kitaibelii) and many other species. Research is
focused mostly on life cycle, reproductive biology, egg incubation, morphometry of young
animals and their nutrition, but also on parasitology and microbiology research. Collecting
data about life cycle, nutrition and reproduction of native amphibian and reptile species
allows more efficient conservation measurements as well as raising of public awareness. If
needed, gained knowledge might be used for establishing populations of critically

Tortoises rigid shells protect soft body parts, but also disable flexion of torso, thus
negatively affect their agility. For example, tortoises have problems overcoming inclined
obstacles, and selfrighting when overturned on their dorsum. Juvenile tortoises are
surroundedwithrelativelylargerobstaclesthanadultsfromthesamehabitat,thusaremore
challenged during everyday movements. To explore change in agility during ontogeny I did
two tests on wild running Hermanns tortoises (Testudo hermanni). First experiment (149
examinees) explored how fast tortoises can overcome 50 cm high negative steep step. I
compared juveniles and adults from two localities. Although adults needed longer time to
startmoving,theycrossedtheobstaclefarquickerthanjuvenilesatbothlocalities.Second
experiment (338 examinees) tested differences in selfrighting behavior between juveniles
and adults from three populations. Again juveniles started moving after shorter period of
time, but also overturned quicker and were more successful to finish the task.Both
experiments demonstrated fast reaction in juvenile tortoises. This could be result of
predator avoidance response. Soft, barely ossified shells of juveniles do not offer efficient
protection from wide range of predators. Secretive lifestyle could be their main anti
predatorresponse,thuspromptreactionandefficientmovingfromconspicuousplacecould
haveavitalimportanceforyoungtortoises.

Related sea slug species Aplysia punctata and A. fasciata (Gastropoda, Opisthobranchia,
Anaspidea) occur simultaneously in theMediterraneanand Adriatic infralittoral coastal zone.
During larval growth and development spiral shell completely encloses and protects the
specimen's soft body. After veliger metamorphosis, the external shell becomes internal and
reduced to a simply concave shield over soft viscera. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM),
Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Xray diffraction (XRD) were used to
determinethemorphology,physical,structuralandcrystallographiccharacteristicsoftheadult
shells of both species. Concomitantly, a comparative study via different molecular
characterizationswascarriedoutbymeasuringenzymaticactivitiesofcarbonicanhydrase(CA),

Lignin is a natural polymer that builds the cell wall and provides mechanical strength to the
stem. In the present study, objective was to determine the characteristics of individual
isoforms of peroxidase and laccase in internodes of barley during the four developmental
stages: elongation, heading, anthesis and grain filling. Total peroxidase (tPOD), laccase and
peroxidase covalently bound to the cell wall (cPOD) were extracted and separated using
isolelectric focusing on polyacrylamide gels. Guaiacol was used for detection of peroxidase
activity and syringaldazine for laccase activity. The analysis showed the presence of eight
different isoforms of tPOD with isoelectric point (pI) 810 and one isoform with pI 2.55.

few patches across Europe and were not studied previously. The phylogeography and
molecular data are needed for in vitro propagation, cryopreservation, proper ex situ and
reintroduction i.e. longterm sustainable conservation. Survival can depend as much on
genetic factors such as inbreeding and gene flow as on factors such as population growth
rate and distribution. However, what is a population/individual in bryophytes? The
phenomena such as bottlenecks, inbreeding depression, hybridization, population
subdivision, genetic restoration, invasiveness, reintroductions, fragmentation, mutational
meltdown are poorly documented in bryophytes. Thus, bryophyte conservationists have

Springs are stable environments with constant abiotic factors and therefore are of use in
variety of ecological experiments. We investigated the influence of canopy coverage on
abundance, diversity, and feeding guilds among Diptera assemblages at two rheocrene karst
springs located near each other. The springs differed by canopy coverage while other

will have a strong effect on assemblage composition of Diptera as well as on diversity;
abundance and feeding guilds between sites and that it will have a stronger effect than
microhabitat characteristics. Similarity among springs was only 37.5%, with 24 common

Qualitativeresearchisabasicscientificresearchwhich,afterthedetectionofaproblemora
phenomenon, as a result brings a hypothesis or an explanation of their causes, a
mechanisms of their formation, and descriptions of their consequences. Quantitative
research find their hypothesis in the results of qualitative research but their goal is a
quantification of problems and phenomena in the sense of generating sufficient data for a
statistical analysis and, at best, for a mathematical description of a phenomenon or a
problem. The need for quality quantitative data that meet the needs of a meaningful
statistical analysis in practice is very often being considered a formal need and in such
manner the statistical methods are being used. Therefore, very often among the obtained
results numerous implicit data remain hidden, phenomena remain at the level of mere de
scription and the problems are very often being resolved in a wrong way or with an
unnecessary damage. Within this lecture the essence of usage of statistical methods and

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF PHYTOPLASMA GENOMES: FROM GENOME INSTABILITY TO

Insecttransmitted bacteria from the genus 'Candidatus Phytoplasma' have small genomes that
experienced specific gene losses and gains through their dynamic coevolution with plant and
insect hosts. Axenic cultivation of these bacteria is still challenging. However, a number of
genome drafts and 4 fully annotated genomes are available. In spite of being reduced,
phytoplasma genomes are repeatrich and contain multicopy genes. Repeats termed potential
mobile units (PMUs) have characteristics of replicative transposons and may exist as circular
extrachromosomal elements with enhanced expression in insects compared with plant hosts.
PMUs contribute to phytoplasma genome size variations and high plasticity as well as to
adaptation to diverse hosts. One of the multicopy genes is the ssb gene with only one copy
locatedinaspecificgenomicneighbourhoodhavingadifferentevolutionaryorigin.Inthisstudy,

Cancer is a disease potentiated by mutations in somatic cells, which are not distributed
uniformlyalongthehumangenome.Instead,differenthumangenomicregionsvarybyupto
fivefold in the local density of cancer somatic mutations. Epigenomic organization has been
proposedasamajordeterminantofthecancermutationallandscape.However,bothsomatic
mutagenesis and epigenomic features are highly celltypespecific. We investigated the
distribution of mutations in multiple independent samples of diverse cancer types and
compared them to celltypespecific epigenomic features. Here we show that chromatin
accessibility and modification, together with replication timing, explain up to 86% of the
variance in mutation rates along cancer genomes. The best predictors of local somatic

Green bridges mitigate negative impact of roads/highways on wildlife populations. Their

effectiveness is evaluated by various monitoring methods. Based on the 3year monitoring
periodoffourgreenbridgesonA1motorwayinCroatia,theeffectivenessofthreemonitoring
methods was compared: trackpads, camera traps and active infrared (IR) trail monitoring
system.Themethodswereevaluatedintermsoftheirabilitytodetectdifferentspeciesandto
givegoodestimationofthenumberofanimalcrossings.Theaccuracyofspeciesdetectionby
trackpadmethodwasinfluencedbygranulometriccompositionofthetrackpadmaterial,with
the best results obtained when higher percentages of silt and clay were used. Regarding the
species composition, monitoring by tracks underestimated the ratio of small canids, while
camera traps underestimated the ratio of roe deer. Furt her, camera trap method
underestimated the real number of animal crossings. On the contrary, active IR detectors
recordedfrom11to19timesmoreeventsthancameratraps.However,circa80%ofIRevents
werenotcausedbywildllifecrossings.Therefore,analgorithmforcorrectionoftheIRdataset
wasdeveloped,inordertoapproximatetherealnumberofcrossings.Inconclusion,presented
results are valuable for future monitoring of wildlife crossings since they provide advantages

jointly developed Guidelines for assessment of wind farms impact on large carnivores. The
experience shows that the best approach for reduction and avoidance of individual and
cumulative impacts of wind farms is their appropriate spatial p ositioning. Therefore the
Guidelines propose an assessment methodology based on the sensitivity map, which was
created throughout mathematical modeling and GIS using data on large carnivores
occurrences and related habitat characteristics. The sensitivity map indicates importance of
certain area for each species of large carnivores and defines nine categories of significance.
Also percent and absolute limits of further loss for each category have been determined. In
addition,theappropriateuseofsensitivitymapinasassessmentproceduresisdescribedand
proposed.

Initial data gathering on bat fauna in Brijuni National Park began with preliminary research in
September2010.Manypotentialsiteswereexaminedandscreeningwasconductedbycatching
with mist nets and recording with ultrasound detector. The first data indicated a surprising
number of individuals and great species diversity. For this reason, during the period between
2011 and 2014, research was extended to a greater number of sites and selected habitats
important to bats. The research was conducted on Veliki and Mali Brijun, as well as on other
smaller islands within the Brijuni archipelago. Altogether, 14 bat species were found by mist
netting, recording with ultrasound detectors and examination of sites. It is important to

biodiversity conservation are two Directives Habitats Directive and Birds Directive. By joining
EU, Croatia has proposed Natura 2000 areas for more than 250 species and 70 habitat types
present in Croatia, thus significantly contributing to halting the biodiversity loss in Europe. The
areas have been selected according to scientific benchmarks, undergone the process of public

European educational policy focused on developing competencies of students emphasizes the
importance of integration of environmental competencies in national framework curricula.
Competences of students in the field of environmental issues include understanding world of
nature, the principles of sustainable development, a critical understanding of science and
technology in terms of ethics, safety and environmental protection etc. The paper analyzes
contentsofthenationaleducationalcurricula(NOKandNRW),e.g.:competencesoflowergrade
primaryschoolstudentsonenvironmentalissues,andanalyzestextbooksforNatureandSociety
in Croatia and Germany (NordrheinWestfalen province) in order to compare presence of
environmental topics in them. It can be concluded that in both curricula pupils competencies
reflectingenvironmentalliteracyareverywellrepresented.Resultsofquantitativeanalysisshow
that the Croatian Nature and Society textbooks 1st4th grade is up to six environmental topics,
contrarytotwentyinGermantextbooks.Someobserveddifferencesintheapproachtoparticular

National Curriculum of Germany and their textbooks, are partly a consequence of the
environmental policy of the EU which promotes standards based on action programs. It is

possible to achieve the optimization of ecological research in the term of reducing needed
time, sample size and size of the sampled area. In this paper the application of simulation
based on spatial statistical models will be shown together with simulation of sampling soil
fauna.Through comparison of results obtained from simulated experiment in laboratory and
real experiment in environment, statistical significance was established. In the framework of
this paper, hypotheses were adopted regarding the origin of error in results obtained from

structure for several reasons; Observed moderate values of expected heterozygosity (He
=0.34 in GLI, =0.36 in REK, =0.44 in RJE) were not likely to appear in newly established
populations after humanmediated translocations. Further, the connection between the
Reka and Rjeina rivers was recognized based on the distribution of Niphargus species.
Finally, according to geographical position and hydrology of examined rivers, natural
dispersal could appear due to historical headwater river captures or due to dispersal of
crayfish through underground water systems. The last possibility should be taken into

only the nominate subspecies has been found regularly there. In the midnineties, however,
multiple farms for venom went bankrupt and thus an unknown number of specimens were
released outside of their native range; unconfirmed data suggests that hundreds of snakes

provide a unique opportunity to study physiological adaptations to marine life in a marine

Within the conservation of Proteus anguinus (the olm) project in Croatia, besides the field
observations, in situ investigation of the species is also carried out.Since there is a lack of

The emerging disease, chytridiomycosis plays a key role in amphibian declines and species
extinctions. Additional agents contributing to this issue are Rana virus (Rv) and a recently
discovered fungus: Batrachochytridium salamandrivorans (Bs). Chytridiomycosiss etiological
agent, the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd), has been reported on all continents
inhabitedbyamphibians.InEuropeitisdetectedin17EUMemberstates.Occurrenceofthe
disease in Balkan area is almost unknown. In this study we report first results for
chytridiomycosisanalyzesinBosniaandHerzegovina(B&H)forcaudateendemicSalamandra
atra prenjensis. During summer 2013, fieldwork was performed on two B&H Mountains. In
total,145individualsofS.a.prenjensiswereswabbedandscreenedforBdinfection.Analyzes
were performed using quantitative realtime PCR (qPCR). Results were negative for all
individuals. On Mt. Prenj, sick and dead individuals expressing specific symptoms (abnormal
posture, cachexia) were found and collected. Besides for Bd, dead animals were additionally
screenedforBsandRv,whichshowedabsenceoftheseinfections.Additionalhistopathology
of skin also proved absence of chytridiomycosis. The phenomenon has been regularly
registered during several years of fieldwork (2% incidence). Possible explanations of its
occurrencearepresentedinthispaper.

information (literature and field data) we found significant differences comparative to the

the rarest ones are Triturus carnifex, Triturus dobrogicus, Pelobates fuscus, Salamandra atra

weinvestigatedwhetherthedietofalienherbivoresoverlappedwiththoseofnativespeciesand
quantified the food source contribution to diets of native and alien consumers. Mixing models
showed that contribution of C. cylindracea is between 9% and 22%. Highest contributions are

invasion of macroalgae is increasing the diversity of available prey and facilitates spread of
another alien species. Although P. gibbesi is not in direct competition with native sea urchins
Paracentrotus lividus and Arbacia lixula, high abundances of this invasive crab are likely to be

specimens recorded. In general, more males than females were found during the research.
Different categories of food: vegetation, detritus, invertebrates, with the dominance of Insecta
larvae, and fish were found in the alimentary canals. Results indicate that sampled fish can be
classified as omnivores, benthivores and piscivores. We also recorded endoparasites in the

otter in Gorski Kotar, Lika and a part of Dalmatia. The Standard method was used, as
recommended by the IUCN/SSC Otter Specialist Group. Before the field survey, potentially
suitable habitats for the otter were estimated, and thecoordinates of the survey locations
were determined using topographic maps and GIS applications. Field research was
conductedinOctoberandNovember2013.Thespraints,jellies,footprints,feedingremains,
paths, hovers and holts were documented as signs of the otter presence. In total, 100
locationswereplannedtobesurveyed,butalargepartofthem(23)werenotinvestigated

Themechanismsthatunderliethebiologicaleffectsofitscomponents,especiallyatthecellular
level, have not yet been fully explained. Since arbutin constitutes the most important
component of the plants extract, our research focused mostly on this glycoside. This study
aimed to determine arbutin content in strawberry tree water leaf extract, and evaluate the
biological effects caused by the extract and arbutin in human cells. The plant material was
collected on the island of Mali Loinj, Croatia (5/2013). Phenolic compounds were extracted
from dried leaves and extracts were subjected to quantitative analysis of arbutin using high
performance liquid chromatography with UV diode array (HPLCDAD) detection. The extract
contained10.7mgarbutinpergoflyophilisate.Usinghumanperipheralbloodlymphocytesin

(usinganacridineorange/ethidiumbromide doublestainingviability assay);the potentialfor
induction of primary DNA damage (using the alkaline comet assay), and cytogenetic damage
(using the micronucleus assay) in treated and control lymphocytes. Both the strawberry tree

research was carried out in the wider area of Split, at stations of different trophic status:
Katela bay, Split harbour, Split channel. The sediment samples were taken down to the
depth of 15 cm and vertically divided into layers: 01 cm, 12 cm, 25 cm, 1015 cm. The
seawater samples were taken at standard oceanographic depths (0, 10, 20, 35 m). The
purpose of the research was to determine the bacteria abundance and the distribution

antioxidant, antiinflammatory, antiproliferative, cytostatic, antiangiogenic and most
improtantly, antineoplastic properties. In the present study we investigated the effect of of
caffeic acid on tumor growth and tumor angiogenesis in mice bearing Ehrlich ascites tumor
(EAT). EAT cells (2.5x106) were implanted intraperitoneally (i.p.) in Swiss albino mice. After
tumor inoculation, mice were injected i.p. with CA at dose of 40 and 80 mg kg1 bw in

used. We analysed the interrelation of the sperm parameters, as well as the connection
between lifestyle. DNA damage of sperm was not significantly associated with traditional
seminal parameters (concentration, motility and sperm morphology and age of the
respondents). Consuming more than ten cigarettes a day, as well as consuming cannabis
more than three times a week, do not significantly affect any of the seminal parameters.
Drinking more than two alcoholic drinks per day significantly reduces the progressive
motility and sperm concentration. At the same time consuming more than two alcoholic
drinks per day and more than ten cigarettes a day significantly reduces the progressive
spermmotility.

This study examined the possible positive effects of quercetin on animal model of psoriasis,
induced by the Hexyl salicylate or DinPropyl Disulfide irritant (PPD). Furthermore, we
evaluated the usefulness of thermography in psoriatic lesion regression. We monitored the
inflammation process by histopathological assessment of skin, thermographic scanning, total
number of inflammatory cells in peritoneal cavity, differential analysis of cells in peritoneal
cavity, macrophage spreading index, hematological and biochemical parameters, frequencies
of micronucleated reticulocytes, lipid peroxidation and glutathione assay in skin, liver and

nucleotide units and is synthesized by the family of enzymes called poly(ADPribose)
polymerases (PARPs). This modification can be removed by the hydrolytic action of
poly(ADPribose) glycohydrolase (PARG) and ADPribosylhydrolase 3 (ARH3). Hydrolytic
activity of macrodomain proteins (MacroD1, MacroD2 and TARG1) is responsible for the
removalofterminalADPriboseunitandforcompletereversionofproteinADPribosylation.
Poly(ADPribosyl)ation is widely utilized in eukaryotes and PARPs are present in
representatives from all six major eukaryotic supergroups, with only a small number of
eukaryotic species that do not possess PARP genes. The last common ancestor of all
eukaryotes possessed at least five types of PARP proteins that include both mono and
poly(ADPribosyl)transferases.DistributionofPARGsstrictlyfollowsthedistributionofPARP
proteins in eukaryotic species. At least one of the macrodomain proteins that hydrolyse

statistically evaluated by Student's ttest or ANOVA. Overall growth of embryos and
ectoplacental cones cultivated with valproate was significantly impaired in comparison to
controls, being more impaired by higher valproate concentration (2 mM). Trichostatin A also
impaired growth of embryos in comparison to controls (no statistical significance) while in
DMSO they were constantly larger than with trichostatin A but smaller than controls. The

Satellite DNAs (satDNAs) and transposable elements (TEs) are two most abundant classes of
repetitiveDNAsfoundineukaryoticgenomes.SinceknowledgeregardingDNAsequencesthat
surround satDNA repeats in the genome is mostly missing, our aim was to explore satDNA
associated sequences using bivalve genomes as a model system. Here, we searched the
genome assembly of the oyster Crassostrea gigas (Zhang et al. 2012) to explore the
surroundings of its satDNA Cg170 (Clabby et al. 1996). In addition, surroundings of several
satDNAsequencesalreadycharacterizedinthreeotherbivalvespecies(Ruditapesdecussatus,

fragments were randomly selected and annotated. Obtained results revealed TElike
th

sequences, mostly DNA transposons, in the closest vicinity of satDNAs and indicate that
intensive shuffling of satDNA sequences in the genome is predominantly driven by a
transpositionrelated process. These findings promote satDNAs as highly dynamic sequences
thatmightrepresentgenomebuildersinasimilarwayandwithacomparablerelevanceasTEs.
Thus, although traditionally considered as two distinct classes, satDNAs and TEs seem to be
much more intimately interlinked in the process of spreading throughout the genome than
previouslythought.

Viruses significantly perturb cell metabolism during infection enabling an efficient virus
replication.Recently,ithasbeenshownthatvirusinfectionleadsalsotosignificantchangesin
the expression of cellular miRNAs, which in turn might result in a favorable environment for
the virus. Similar to other viruses studied thus far, herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV1) induces
differential expression of cellular miRNA, however the exact role of such up or down
regulationhasnotbeenelucidated.Usingmassiveparallelsequencing,ourgrouphasobserved
asignificantincreaseintheexpressionofcertaincellularmiRNAinseveraldifferentcelllines
and cells latently infected with the virus. Moreover, we confirmed the increase in the
expression of host miRNAs by quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRTPCR).
TheseresultsindicatethatHSV1hastheabilitytoinduceexpressionofthemiRNAstoachieve
