Resin acids play key roles in shaping microbial communities during degradation of spruce bark
Nature Communications, 2023 The bark is the outermost defense of trees against microbial attack, largely thanks to toxicity and prevalence of extractive compounds. Nevertheless, bark decomposes in nature, though by which species and mechanisms remains unknown.

An Attack-Defense Tree on e-Exam System
International Journal of Emerging Technologies in Learning (iJET), 2019 The electronic-examination (e-exam) system is not only transforming the paper-based examination to the electronic-based examination. The e-exam system has a big security challenge that must be resolved to guarantee the trust of its users. This paper aims at analyzing security challenges of an e-exam system and proposing a solution using Attack and ...

The Road to Resistance in Forest Trees
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 In recent years, forests have been exposed to an unprecedented rise in pests and pathogens. This, coupled with the added challenge of climate change, renders forest plantation stock vulnerable to attack and severely limits productivity.

Molecular population genetics of elicitor-induced resistance genes in European aspen (Populus tremula L., Salicaceae). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Owing to their long life span and ecological dominance in many communities, forest trees are subject to attack from a diverse array of herbivores throughout their range, and have therefore developed a large number of both constitutive and inducible ...

Semantics for specialising attack trees based on linear logic [PDF]
, 2016 peer reviewedAttack trees profile the sub-goals of the proponent of an attack. Attack trees have a variety of semantics depending on the kind of question posed about the attack, where questions are captured by an attribute domain.

On Quantitative Analysis of Attack–Defense Trees with Repeated Labels [PDF]
, 2018 Ensuring security of complex systems is a difficult task that requires utilization of numerous tools originating from various domains. Among those tools we find attack–defense trees, a simple yet practical model for analysis of scenarios involving two competing parties.
