Resistance Clause Samples

The 'Resistance' clause defines the obligations or rights of a party to oppose or withstand certain actions, demands, or influences within the context of the agreement. In practice, this clause may specify the circumstances under which a party can refuse compliance, challenge a directive, or maintain their position despite external pressures, such as regulatory changes or third-party claims. Its core function is to protect a party from being compelled to act against their interests or the terms of the contract, thereby allocating risk and ensuring that parties retain a measure of control over their contractual obligations.

Resistance the ability of a plant variety to restrict the growth and development of a specified pathogen or pest and/or the damage they cause when compared to susceptible plant varieties under similar environmental factors and pathogen or pest pressure. Resistant varieties may exhibit some disease symptoms or damage under heavy pathogen or pest pressure. Two levels of resistance are defined: (i) High resistance (HR*): plant varieties that highly restrict the growth and development of the specified pathogen or pest under normal pathogen or pest pressure when compared to susceptible varieties. These plant varieties may, however, exhibit some symptoms or damage under heavy pathogen pressure. (ii) Intermediate resistance (IR*): plant varieties that restrict the growth and development of the specified pathogen or pest but may exhibit a greater range of symptoms or damage compared to resistant varieties. Moderately/intermediately resistant plant varieties will still show less severe symptoms or damage than susceptible plant varieties when grown under similar environmental factors and/or pathogen or pest pressure. * The standard abbreviations HR (high resistance) and IR (intermediate resistance) are used in all languages.

Resistance. The tribunals also rewarded defendants who had actively resisted the Nazis. That resistance took four basic forms. First, three tribunals highlighted a defendant’s opposition to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ himself: the ▇▇▇▇ tribunal credited ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ with playing “an active part” in the “underground movement working against the regime”82; the Flick tribunal pointed out that ▇▇▇▇▇ himself “knew in advance of the plot on ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ life in July 1944, and sheltered one of the conspirators”83; and the Ministries tribunal accepted von ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s claim that he remained in the Foreign Office so that “he might thereby continue to be at least a cohesive factor in the underground opposition to ▇▇▇▇▇▇.”84 Second, a number of tribunals focused on a defendant’s efforts to prevent the issuance of illegal orders. The Hostage tribunal, for example, said that ▇▇▇▇▇▇ was entitled to mitigation because he regularly protested the harshness of orders he received concerning the execution of hostages.85 Similarly, the High Command tribunal gave ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ significant credit for his repeated attempts to prevent ▇▇▇▇▇▇ from issuing the Commissar Order, which he believed to be both “stupid” and “in violation of international law.”86 Third, multiple tribunals acknowledged that defendants had either attempted to prevent the commission of crimes or had softened illegal orders and decrees. The Flick tribunal noted that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ had prevented “several instances” of pillaging.87 The Hostage tribunal found that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’▇ attempts to ensure that his soldiers complied with the laws of war “warrant[ed] mitigation of punishment.”88 The Ministries tribunal said that it would “not ignore” ▇▇▇▇▇’s efforts “to alleviate the 78 Justice, III TWC 1128.

Resistance. The term ‘resistance’ is used to describe the capacity of animals to endure the venomous effects of a toxin or venom without suffering serious harm (Edmunds, 1974). Resistance among reptiles and mammals, to different snake venoms, has been examined for many years (Allyn, 1937; Calmette, 1895). Toxin resistance is common in those animals who are liable to be frequently exposed to venomous or toxic animals, for example, when there is a predator prey-relationship and their territories overlap geographically (▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇, 2006; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ et al., 2002; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇, 2015; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2005). The toxin-producing animal may, in turn, develop countermeasures to overcome prey resistance through adaptive mutation and toxin gene duplication (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, Parchman, ▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2003; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2013; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇, 1979; ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 1999b; ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇ et al., 2003). Animals use a variety of strategies to avoid being adversely effected by venoms or toxins (▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2020). For examples of strategies of resistance, see Table 2; and for examples of selected molecular modifications relevant to this review, see Figure 2). These strategies include not only the molecular strategies that are the subject of my thesis, but might also include less obvious things such as the scaly skin on the legs of birds that might provide a physical barrier to envenomation, and the behavioural agility of mammals and birds (Figure 3) that allows them to avoid being bitten in the first place (▇▇▇▇ et al., 2020). The molecular mechanisms of resistance in the vertebrates against toxins offer a significant insight into the understanding of the evolutionary arms race (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2005; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2001; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2016; ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2015; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2005). Moreover, inter-specific competition and a long-time presence of predator and prey in the same geographic area are factors that help drive the arms race (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 2013). Among vertebrates, there are a small number of examples of such an arms race (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1992a; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1995; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2015; ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2016; ▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇, 2012). Our aim here is to review the literature relevant to toxin resistance in general, and the evolutionary arms race in particular, in the vertebrates.
