Impact of High Night Temperature on Plant Biology: Toward Sustainable Plant Adaptation to Climate Change
The persistence of higher night-time temperatures (HNT) over long periods during the crop cycle can potentially impact a wide range of growth and developmental stages. The major processes drastically affected by night-time warming, such as photosynthesis, respiration, etc., ultimately cause yield and economic losses. Despite this, HNT has not been significantly researched regarding its impact on plants. This new book provides a comprehensive understanding of the physiology of night-time warming, trait responses, advanced tools for phenotyping, and alleviation and mitigation strategies.https://scholarsjunction.msstate.edu/works_books/1000/thumbnail.jp
Mapping renewable energy opportunities: Increasing rural energy resilience in Mississippi through Extension and national program insights
There has been an increased interest in renewable energy opportunities in Mississippi in recent years but limited educational material on this topic and a lack of knowledge among residents on various renewable energy options. Therefore, the main objectives of this study were to 1) conduct a comprehensive review of renewable energy educational resources and 2) increase knowledge of renewable energy in youth through the development of a new statewide Extension program. The environmental scan resulted in 45 usable responses from 117 potential participants, and programmatic details were received for 54 Extension programs or other forms of educational material. Evaluation results from the new Extension program ‘Powering Local Communities’ showed that 82% of participants (n=55) increased their knowledge of different types of biomass, and 76% of participants (n=50) increased their knowledge on how biomass can be used to produce electricity and the benefits of using biomass to generate energy
