Bark Beetle Attack History Does Not Influence the Induction of Terpene and Phenolic Defenses in Mature Norway Spruce (Picea abies) Trees by the Bark Beetle-Associated Fungus Endoconidiophora polonica

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Terpenes and phenolics are important constitutive and inducible conifer defenses against bark beetles and their associated fungi. In this study, the inducible defenses of mature Norway spruce (Picea abies) trees with different histories of attack by the ...

Divergent growth‐differentiation balance strategies and resource competition shape mortality patterns in ponderosa pine

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
Dynamic resource availability leads to trade‐offs among functions in plants. The growth‐differentiation balance hypothesis (GDBH) predicts greater allocation of carbon to defense than growth when resources are scarce, with optimum defense production ...

Attribute Decoration of Attack–Defense Trees [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Secure Software Engineering, 2012
Attack–defense trees can be used as part of threat and risk analysis for system development and maintenance. They are an extension of attack trees with defense measures. Moreover, tree nodes can be decorated with attributes, such as probability, impact, and penalty, to increase the expressiveness of the model.

Chemical defense strategies, induction timing, growth, and trade‐offs in Pinus aristata and Pinus flexilis

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Trade‐offs between plant defense investment and fitness traits, including growth, are often invoked to explain evolutionary strategies targeted at resisting herbivores.

Impersonation Attack-Defense Tree

open access: yesInternational Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (iJET), 2020
Nowadays, online learning or e-learning has become increasingly popular and evolved. Many academic institutions use the Learning Management System (LMS) as a medium for delivering e-learning. A vital feature in such a system is the electronic examination (e-exam), where verifying student’s authentic competence is a challenge. This paper aims to present

Transcriptome analysis and characterization of genes associated to leaf tannin content in foxtail millet [Setaria italica (L.) P. Beauv.]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2022
Background Chinese chestnut is an economically important tree species whose yield and quality are seriously affected by red spider attack. Tannins is one of the most important class secondary metabolites in plants, and is closely associated with plant ...

A specialist herbivore uses chemical camouflage to overcome the defenses of an ant-plant mutualism. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Many plants and ants engage in mutualisms where plants provide food and shelter to the ants in exchange for protection against herbivores and competitors.

Mechanisms of Pine Disease Susceptibility Under Experimental Climate Change

open access: yesFrontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2022
Climate change (CC) conditions projected for many temperate areas of the world, expressed by way of excessive temperatures and low water availability, will impact forest health directly by means of abiotic stress but also by predisposing trees to ...

Computational Aspects of Attack–Defense Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Attack---defense trees extend attack trees with defense nodes. This richer formalism allows for a more precise modeling of a system's vulnerabilities, by representing interactions between possible attacks and corresponding defensive measures. In this paper we compare the computational complexity of both formalisms.

Formal Template-Based Generation of Attack–Defence Trees for Automated Security Analysis

open access: yesInformation, 2023
Systems that integrate cyber and physical aspects to create cyber-physical systems (CPS) are becoming increasingly complex, but demonstrating the security of CPS is hard and security is frequently compromised.
