Congratulations to RegenPGC graduate student Prathyusha Cheguri. Her presentation, Unlocking Sexual Reproduction in Poa Bulbosa received a 1st place award in the “5-minute Rapid Crop Breeding and Genetics” oral competition at the recent 2025 CANVAS (formerly Tri Societies) Annual Meeting in Salt Lake City.
The meeting, now known as CANVAS and jointly hosted by the American Society of Agronomy, the Crop Science Society of America, and the Soil Science Society of America, is the premier meeting across the field of environmental sciences. According to the organizers, “CANVAS is equal parts science, networking, collaboration, and camaraderie.” Every year, members of the RegenPGC team attend this meeting.
