The CSSA created “divisions of interest” as a way for Society members to find and interact with other members with similar interests. Divisions facilitate planning for our annual meeting, CANVAS, and help coordinate programs and services. Divisions also provide a voice in Society governance, with each of the nine divisions represented on the CSSA Board of Directors.
As a benefit of membership, members may join any/all CSSA Divisions. Division membership is easily modified online through a member’s account by visiting the “My Account” feature online: https://www.sciencesocieties.org/my-account. Division chairs may review the list of members in their division by clicking the "Members" tab in their Member Hub circle.
CSSA is committed to creating, developing, and improving opportunities for divisions. As such, services will be provided to the division leadership through the chair and chair-elect officers. These will generally be managed by CSSA staff. These services include:
Discovery, maintenance, and modification of germplasm, biometrical and biochemical genetics, cytogenetics, crop evolution, morphology, and related studies.
Plant physiology, pathology, mineral uptake and nutrition, photosynthesis, translocation, source-sink relations, and plant responses to the environment.
