Renan Souza Silva
 Renan is a doctoral student in Plant Physiology, with a scholarship and advised by Prof. Luis Antonio de Avila, and is developing studies on the response of Leersia hexandra and Luziola peruviana to chemical control due to abiotic factors, focusing on the variation in the water content in the soil influencing the partition of assimilated from Leersia hexandra and Luziola peruviana and in its control with glyphosate. Interest in agriculture arose due to the fact that e grew in an environment linked to the countryside. He is an Agronomy Graduate from the Federal University of Pelotas, and during his undergraduate studies he became interested in rice cultivation in the most diverse areas (such as seed pathology and post-harvest) where he interned, due to his very small contact with the crop in his hometown, Jaguarão, RS.
