Ésta es una tendencia mundial que la OCDE ha definido como la adopción de enfoques y contenidos propios de la educación básica (OECD, 2001, p. 129), por ejemplo, la reducción de las oportunidades de juego (limitándolo al tiempo del recreo), y el foco en el desarrollo de habilidades cognitivas (en desmedro, por ejemplo, de la creatividad). Principalmente observada en grupos de 4 y 5 años de edad, la escolarización de la educación parvularia ha sido interpretada como una visión estrecha de la preparación para la escuela, (OECD 2006, p. 42, 219). En Chile las autoridades educacionales han manifestado su preocupación por esta tendencia (Ministerio de Educación, 2016, p. 19; MINEDUC, 2018, p. 26). Además, varios estudios han evidenciado elementos de escolarización en establecimientos de todas las dependencias para Niveles Medios y Transición (Pardo & Woodrow 2014; Pardo & Opazo 2019; Santibáñez et al. 2009; Grau et al. 2018; Grau et al. 2018; Strasser et al. 2009; Sánchez & Gómez 2010). OBJETIVO GENERAL DEL PROYECTO: Explorar la presencia de elementos de escolarización en aulas de Segundo Nivel de Transición (NT2) en establecimientos municipales y particular subvencionados de la Región Metropolitana y de la Región de O’Higgins.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section css=".vc_custom_1649209804184{background-color: #f6faff !important;}" el_class="p-md-0 pt-md-5"][vc_row el_class="container mx-auto align-items-center p-md-0 pt-5"][vc_column el_class="p-0"][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section css=".vc_custom_1649210787516{background-color: #f6faff !important;}" el_class="p-md-0 pt-md-5 pb-md-5"][vc_row el_class="container mx-auto align-items-center"][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]

Modern agriculture controls diseases by extensive application of chemicals, however this strategy brings undesired effects, such as human health problems by exposure to these chemicals, environmental contamination and development of pesticide resistant pathogens. Agricultural industry is an economically important activity in Chile, compromising close to 10% of the labor force. The fruit industry (excluding table grapes) corresponds to 8.5% of the arable lands (342,654.2 hectares), where Prunus persica (peach and nectarines, called hereinafter as Peach) has an important place. Peach orchards are affected by several diseases such as, bacterial canker caused by the bacteria Pseudomonas syringae and brown rot blossom blight caused by the fungi Monilinia fructicola and M. laxa, which are controlled mainly by using pesticides. In this context, the need to better understand peach immunity has arisen for developing alternative or supplementary strategies to control crop diseases. Plant immunity relies on the capacity of each individual cell to recognize pathogen threat, through cell surface and intracellular receptors, initiating immune responses to defend themselves. Cell surface receptors are called Pattern Recognition Receptors (PRRs) by their ability of recognizing characteristic microbial-derived molecules called microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs). Upon MAMP recognition Pattern Triggered Immunity (PTI) is activated, defense responses are elicited enabling the plant to ward off pathogen colonization. MAMPs are distinctive molecules present in bacteria or fungi, non-strain specific, such as bacterial flagellin and fungal endoxylanases, which are recognized by specific PRRs, forming the MAMP/PRR recognition system that triggers the defense. The presence of PRRs is tightly correlated with higher broad pathogen resistance. In fact, transgenic Citrus sinensis, Medicago truncatula, Triticum avium, Nicotiana benthamiana, and Solanum lycopersicum carrying exogenous PRR present higher pathogen resistance. Moreover, Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) linking resistance to pathogens with PRRs in Phaseolus vulgaris and Hordeum vulgare. These evidences highlight the potential of exploiting MAMP/PRR recognition system in modern agriculture. We are focused to study in Peach two well described MAMP/PRR recognition model systems: flg22/FLS2 and xyn11/LeEIX2 recognition system. In the case of Flg22/FLS2 recognition system a conserved flagellin peptide, named flg22, is recognized by the PRR FLS2, activating oxidative burst, hormone production and transcriptional activation of Pathogen related (PR) genes. In xyn11/LeEIX2 recognition system a conserved peptide of endoxylanases type 11, named hereinafter xyn11, is recognized by the PRR EIX2, activating oxidative burst, ethylene production, expression of PR proteins and hypersensitive response. These recognition systems are agriculturally important because they can recognize the bacteria Bacillus sp, Pseudomonas sp and Xanthomonas sp and the fungi Trichoderma viridea and Botrytis cinerea. Remarkably, Bacterial Canker caused by Pseudomonas syringae is a current problem for Peach crops in Chile, as well, grey mold caused by Botrytis cinerea infection is a common post-harvesting disease for fruits. Peach immunity is poorly described, however transcriptomic analysis showed more than 20 PRR like proteins induced by Xanthomonas arboricola infection and QTL analysis have identified two RLK genes associated to peach resistance against Monilinia spp, the causal agent of brown rot blossom blight, one of the most economically important peach diseases. However, no functional analyses have described MAMP/PRR recognition systems in peach to date. We expect to generate novel and valuable information regarding Peach immunity, characterizing peach flg22/FLS2 and xyn11/LeEIX2 recognition systems, as well as the defense responses triggered by them and their involvement in resistance to Pseudomonas syringae and Botrytis ciniera. In addition, we will explore whether these recognition systems, particularly xyn11/LeEIX2 participate in Monilinia spp recognition.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section css=".vc_custom_1649209804184{background-color: #f6faff !important;}" el_class="p-md-0 pt-md-5"][vc_row el_class="container mx-auto align-items-center p-md-0 pt-5"][vc_column el_class="p-0"][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section css=".vc_custom_1649210787516{background-color: #f6faff !important;}" el_class="p-md-0 pt-md-5 pb-md-5"][vc_row el_class="container mx-auto align-items-center"][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]
