Use of elastic stability analysis to explain the stress-dependent nature of soil strength [PDF]
, 2015 The peak and critical state strengths of sands are linearly related to the stress level, just as the frictional resistance to sliding along an interface is related to the normal force. The analogy with frictional sliding has led to the use of a ‘friction

Drought Stress Responses: Coping Strategy and Resistance
Plants, 2022 Plants’ resistance to stress factors is a complex trait that is a result of changes at the molecular, metabolic, and physiological levels. The plant resistance strategy means the ability to survive, recover, and reproduce under adverse conditions ...

Insulin resistance and surgical stress [PDF]
Medicinski podmladak, 2016 Surgical procedures are associated with stress reaction, that leads to inflammation and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is protective mechanism developed in postoperative period, in order to protect sources of carbohydrate for glucose-dependent organs, such as brain.

Electromigration early resistance increase measurements [PDF]
, 1992 An early resistance change measurement set-up, using an AC bridge technique, has been developed, and measurements have been performed. Large sample-to-sample variations occur.

Non-lethal exposure to H2O2 boosts bacterial survival and evolvability against oxidative stress [PDF]
, 2020 Unicellular organisms have the prevalent challenge to survive under oxidative stress of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). ROS are present as by-products of photosynthesis and aerobic respiration.

How innate immunity proteins kill bacteria and why they are not prone to resistance [PDF]
, 2017 Recent advances on antibacterial activity of peptidoglycan recognition proteins (PGRPs) offer some insight into how innate immunity has retained its antimicrobial effectiveness for millions of years with no frequent emergence of resistant strains. First,

Expression of the CCCH-tandem zinc finger protein gene OsTZF5 under a stress-inducible promoter mitigates the effect of drought stress on rice grain yield under field conditions [PDF]
, 2020 Increasing drought resistance without sacrificing grain yield remains an ongoing challenge in crop improvement. In this study, we report that Oryza sativa CCCH‐tandem zinc finger protein 5 (OsTZF5) can confer drought resistance and increase grain yield ...
