Drought is a critical environmental factor which constrains plant survival and growth. Genetic en-gineering provides a credible strategy to improve drought tolerance of plants. Here, we generated transgenic poplar lines expressing the isopentenyl transferase gene (IPT) under the driver of PtRD26 promoter (PtRD26pro-IPT). PtRD26 is a senescence and drought-inducible NAC transcription factor. PtRD26pro-IPT plants displayed multiple pheno-types, including improved growth and drought tolerance. Transcriptome analysis revealed that auxin biosynthesis pathway was activated in the PtRD26pro-IPT plants, leading to an increase in auxin contents. Biochemical analysis revealed that ARABIDOPSIS RESPONSE REGULATOR10 (PtARR10), one of the type-B ARR transcription factors in the cytokinin pathway, was induced in PtRD26pro-IPT plants and directly regulated the transcripts of YUCCA4 (PtYUC4) and YUCCA5 (PtYUC5), two enzymes in the auxin biosynthesis pathway. Overexpression of PtYUC4 enhanced drought tolerance, while simultaneous silencing of PtYUC4/5 evidently attenuated the drought toler-ance of PtRD26pro-IPT plants. Intriguingly, PtYUC4/5 displayed a conserved thioredoxin reductase activity that is required for drought tolerance by deterring reactive oxygen species accumulation. Our work reveals the molecular basis of cytokinin and auxin interactions in response to environmental stresses, and shed light on the improvement of drought tolerance without a growth penalty in trees by molecular breeding.

我国自然灾害种类多、影响范围大,各类灾害风险交织叠加,防灾减灾工作面临严峻挑战,同时也对“十四五”期间综合防灾减灾规划编制提出了更高要求.韧性是一种应对风险的科学理念,运用韧性理念指导防灾减灾规划编制有助于发挥规划在防灾减灾工作中的引领作用,全面提高防灾减灾工作治理体系与治理能力.在对韧性概念理念与内涵进行了深入分析的基础上,该文将“城市安全五维体系”运用于防灾减灾领域并对防灾减灾工作内容进行了重构,通过五维体系视角回顾上两版国家层面综合防灾减灾规划,总结了综合防灾减灾规划趋势,系统梳理了综合防灾减灾规划
爱因斯坦指出,哲学可以被认为是全部科学之母.哲学探究的是所有事物的一般性规律,是对自然知识、社会知识与思维知识的概括与总结.哲学的观点是高度抽象的,它不涉及具体的学科,但它对具体学科的研究与学习乃至于一个具体问题的求解都有指导作用.人们的一切行为是受意识支配的,而支配行为的意识是人们所处的社会关系及外界其他因素作用于人脑的结果.数学家的“数学研究总是在某种哲学思想的指导下进行的”[1] ,学生的数学学习行为也受意识的支配.教学过程中常常发现,支配学生数学学习行为的意识更多的是教师作用于学生的“解题套路”,
