Alternatives: "a collection of defenses" or "a range of defenses."
Judge John Cleland's three-paragraph order did not explain why he turned down a set of defense motions.
Instead, the invasion was meant to serve as a test for preventive warfare, or what would later be known as the Bush Doctrine -- a set of defense principles that, according to Bacevich, was Wolfowitz's "handiwork".
In PTI and ETI, a set of defense response on transcriptome level were activated, and resulted in the arrest of pathogen clone [ 9– 12].
Plant inducible immunity includes the accumulation of a set of defense proteins during infection called pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins, which are grouped into families termed PR-1 to PR-17.
In this study, the transcriptomes of two near isogenic lines (NILs), one resistant and one susceptible to bacterial leaf pustule, were analyzed 0, 6, and 12 hpi and a total of 2,761 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), including a set of defense response genes, were identified.
Outfitting the classic pieces in this manner, then setting them free, the inventor means to guarantee their persistence beyond the frailties of human commemoration, to give them a set of defenses adequate to their value.
In addition, countries must quickly develop a set of defenses that give governments greater firepower when under attack from speculators.
Therefore such way, any stimulus that perturbs cellular redox balance may serve as an inducer for a set of defense-related genes, including PR proteins.
These results indicated that Pst infection triggered the induction of a set of defense-related genes in broad bean peaking at 12 and 24 hpi.
In conclusion, it seems that a set of defense-related genes –already identified in mycorrhizal plants – are differentially expressed in tomato fruit at the turning stage, suggesting that they could take part in the so-called priming reaction elicited by mycorrhizal fungi and are also maintained at systemic level in the fruit.
Silencing and overexpression of OsERF3 indicate that the gene is a central early herbivore-responsive one that affects a set of defense-associated signaling pathways, such as MAPK cascades as well as SA, JA and ET signaling, and it acts as a vital switch modulating defense responses against chewing and piercing/sucking insects in rice [ 55].
