Repercusiones de la teoría de Piaget en los diseños curriculares
This paper contains part of the results obtained in a research study on the
repercussions of Piaget�s theory on education. The general frame of the study is
presented and the exposition is restricted to analysing its influence on preschool and
early primary school curricular design.
The results show that only the structural aspects of the theory are taken into
account, and that there is a tendency towards the mechanical transposition of both
principles and contents of Piaget�s theory to education. In the discussion it is shown that
if the epistemological vocation of genetic psychology is taken into account and if a
profound study of the nature of education is made, it is possible to conceive new fields
of application of genetic theory, different from educational aims, and a more suitable
methodology for carrying out this applicationrealizada acerca de las repercusiones de Piaget en los ambientes educativos. Se presenta
el marco general de la investigación y se centra la exposición en el análisis de la
influencia en los diseños curriculares. El texto seleccionado para dicho análisis fue el
relativo a las Orientaciones y Programas para Parvulario y Ciclo Inicial editado por la
Generalitat de Cataluña.
Los resultados evidencian una centración en los aspectos estructurales de la
teoría genética y una tendencia hacia la extrapolación de los principios y contenidos de
la teoría genética a la situación educativa. En la discusión se demuestra como una toma
de conciencia de la vocación epistemológica de los datos psicogenéticos, unida a una
mayor profundización de la naturaleza de la educación, permite concebir nuevos campos
de aplicación de la teoría genética, distintos al de la elección y organización de los
objetivos educativos, así como la metodología más pertinente para llevar a cabo esa

Strigolactones: new players in the nitrogen‐phosphorus signalling interplay
Nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) are among the most important macronutrients for plant growth and development, and the most widely used as fertilizers. Understanding how plants sense and respond to N and P deficiency is essential to optimize and reduce the use of chemical fertilizers. Strigolactones (SLs) are phytohormones acting as modulators and sensors of plant responses to P deficiency. In the present work, we assess the potential role of SLs in N starvation and in the N-P signalling interplay. Physiological, transcriptional and metabolic responses were analysed in wild-type and SL-deficient tomato plants grown under different P and N regimes, and in plants treated with a short-term pulse of the synthetic SL analogue 2′-epi-GR24. The results evidence that plants prioritize N over P status by affecting SL biosynthesis. We also show that SLs modulate the expression of key regulatory genes of phosphate and nitrate signalling pathways, including the N-P integrators PHO2 and NIGT1/HHO. The results support a key role for SLs as sensors during early plant responses to both N and phosphate starvation and mediating the N-P signalling interplay, indicating that SLs are involved in more physiological processes than so far proposedFil: Marro, Nicolás Alejandro.
