Individual aboriginal title is a fact-specific and fact-intensive defense, which is difficult to raise as a criminal affirmative defense, for which the defendant has the burden of proof.
Only for 25% of these triplets all three copies were differentially expressed, suggesting a tight regulation of the resource-intensive defense response.
Under low nitrogen regimes, N. attenuata plants grew slower and had lower levels of nitrogen-intensive defense compounds than plants grown under high nitrogen levels [ 31].
Based on these results, ir SIPK, ir WIPK and ir LOX3 plants were expected to forgo the costs nitrogen investments in nitrogen-intensive defense metabolites [ 20, 33].
Furthermore, when grown in competition, plants impaired in the production of trypsin proteinase inhibitors (TPIs), a JA-induced nitrogen-intensive defense, produced more seed capsules and were taller than their neighbouring WT plants [ 32].
All transgenic lines with reduced JA-signaling showed lower levels of nitrogen-intensive defense metabolites than did WT [ 20, 21] which may allocate nitrogen resources towards growth and reproduction.
Baldwin [ 51] discussed fitness optimization as a process of resource allocation and demonstrated that the biosynthesis of nicotine, a JA-induced nitrogen-intensive defense metabolite, can slow growth [ 52].
The exogenous treatment of rice shoots with MeJA triggers an intensive systemic defense response and activates the expression of some PR genes, including OsPR1a and OsPR1b, in the roots where the activities of the root knot nematode Meloidogyne graminicola is inhibited (Nahar et al. 2011).
After taking some intensive self-defense training, she has broken into her husband's condo and is getting a last-minute pep talk on the cell phone from her best friend (Juliette Lewis).
There was a need for a huge "homeland security" campaign, including intensive municipal civil-defense and crisis-response teams, new antiterrorist detection technology, education reform to produce more science and math whizzes, new Cabinet-level positions (Secretary of Homeland Security, for example, which President Bush finally proposed last week), and bureaucratic reform.
