Abstract:
Mississippi is an “under-botanized” state, with no state flora or atlas, a paucity of voucher specimens from many counties, and few county or local floristic inventories. 12 taxa are reported new to the flora of Mississippi or with only false, dubious, or unsubstantiated previous record; three significantly rare taxa with little previous record in the state are reported for new counties or ecoregions. Voucher specimens for each taxon are deposited at the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science (MMNS) or University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill (NCU) herbarium, and duplicates for some taxa at the University of West Alabama (UWAL), Austin Peay State University (APSC), University of Southern Mississippi (USMS), and Mississippi State University (MISSA) herbaria. I have excluded detailed locality information here, as all of the native taxa are significantly rare in the state and on unprotected land. The habitat, rarity, and distribution within the state of each taxon are discussed.

Abstract:
A study was conducted at the Mississippi State University Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station (MAFES) McNeil Unit in southern Mississippi to identify promising muscadine grape (Vitis rotundifolia) germplasm for use as parents in the breeding and genetics research program and to develop information on performance for use by growers in the region for cultivar selection decisions. The vineyard was first established in 1992 and was expanded in 1994. Cultivars were evaluated in 2001, 2002, and 2006 for their performance and were found to differ in vigor, resistance to diseases, yield, and fruit quality. Cultivars suitable for winemaking that performed well included Carlos, Doreen, Magnolia, Noble, Regale, Sterling, and Welder. Cultivars intended for the fresh market that produced high yields and high-quality fruit included Alachua, Black Beauty, Darlene, Fry, Ison, Janebell, Nesbit, Polyanna, Sweet Jenny, Summit, and Tara. ‘Dixie’, a multipurpose cultivar, ‘Eudora’, a newly released fresh-market cultivar, and ‘Southern Home’, a multipurpose cultivar with enhanced ornamental value, also performed well at this location.

Thinking about the approach and scholarship called the New Southern Studies takes me back to the first years in my position in southern studies and history at the University of Mississippi. When I started that job in 1988, I had a great deal to learn, especially about the recent and contemporary South. So I turned to the best scholarly books I could find, especially those by my fellow historians and also by social scientists, literary scholars, music scholars, and folklorists.

Full text
Abstract:
A greater emphasis is being placed on hardwood management, yet there has been relatively little effort to develop growth and yield information for hardwood forest types. Measurements on permanent growth and yield plots collected in 1981, 1988, 1994, and 2006 in minor stream bottoms in Mississippi and Alabama were used to construct a stand level growth and yield model for red oak/sweetgum stands. The model predicts arithmetic mean diameter, quadratic mean diameter, trees per acre, basal area, total tree height, and cubic foot volume per acre for the total stand and by species. Different sets of equations were constructed depending on the amount of information known about a hardwood stand. Models were chosen based on significance of variables, coefficient of determination, index of fit, and biological trends. Predicted stand development patterns are discussed. These models will be base models for a complete diameter distribution growth and yield model.

Abstract:
Kappa Alpha, a Greek fraternal organization with chapters in universities across the nation, compromises to shield itself from scrutiny for entrenched racist history. Negative press incidents lead to the removal of its Confederate flag and Old South balls, even as the organization is monological in its historical alliance with white supremacy and Robert E. Lee, as its “spiritual founder.” In this chapter, Whitney Jordan Adams dissects an online message board in reaction to the loss of Old South balls, finding “frozen loci,” isolated argument of resentment devoid of historical reasoning or context. Adams calls for a pedagogical disturbance in the classroom, one that creates new dialogism for these students who have never dealt with difference in their lived proximity. Disturbances such as personal narratives, anti-racist art, and DEI-themed university history tours are promoted as workable unsettling of frozen loci.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Brown v. Board of Education, which struck down state-mandated segregation in public education, and its implications for southern authoritarian enclaves. With the Brown shock, Mississippi's rulers faced their first major black insurgency in decades. A standoff between the state's governors and the White Citizens' Council (WCC) forces led to a stalemate over the development of an effective coercive apparatus, with negative consequences for managing the desegregation crisis at the University of Mississippi. The chapter first considers the state of black education prior to Brown before discussing the crisis, triggered by the university's refusal to admit James Meredith—who was black— and Mississippi's resistance to the decision. It shows how a combination of intraelite dissensus and weak party–state capacities help explain the enclave's navigation of the desegregation crisis at the University of Mississippi.

Abstract:
Mercer University was founded in 1833 by the Georgia Baptist Convention to train Southern clergy. By the time the institution opened, state Baptist leaders, had broadened the college’s original vision to include any students desiring formal higher education. There were 39 students enrolled in that first class, only seven of whom were ministerial students. During the Civil War, Mercer University managed to stay afloat, unlike so many other institutions. However, the war took its toll and Mercer emerged impoverished and barely functional. In 1870, the university was relocated from Penfield to Macon. Discussions about the relocation began before the war and were resumed soon afterwards due to the college’s dire financial situation resulting from the war.

On 17 May 1954, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled unanimously in Brown v The Board of Education that segregated public schools are unconstitutional. This chapter describes massive resistance organized by politicians and white supremacist groups throughout the South. Crises are described at Clinton High in Tennessee, Central High in Little Rock, Arkansas, the Universities of Mississippi and Alabama, Tuskegee High School in Alabama, and Clemson University in South Carolina as well as the courage of the Reverends Turner, Boggs, Cartwright, Ogden, Campbell, Gray, Davis, Sellers, Morris, Cousins, Lyles, Jackson, and Webster at these locations. It includes statements in support of the decision by the governing boards of major religious denominations, twenty-eight young ministers of the Mississippi Methodist Conference, and contributors to South Carolinians Speak, a booklet on moderation. Later the Supreme Court backed away from enforcing school integration. Scholars Wright, Jacoway, Wolters, Bell, Higgins, and Snider comment.

During the Civil Rights Movement, many white churches in the South issued closed-door policies that prevented black people from entering their sanctuaries. Many white ministers who attempted to admit African Americans lost their churches. This chapter relates crisis incidents in three Alabama churches, First Presbyterian, Tuscaloosa, First Presbyterian, Tuskegee, and First Baptist, Birmingham; two Baptist churches in Georgia, Tattnell Square in Macon, and Plains Baptist in Plains, three churches in Jackson, Mississippi, Galloway Memorial Methodist, First Christian, and Capitol Street Church of Christ The chapter also includes an account of the sustained campaign in Jackson by black students from Tougaloo University who suffered pain and rejection. William Cunningham, one of the ministers forced to leave Galloway Memorial Methodist Church, commented, “There was agony for the churches outside and agony within…. The church could not change the culture; but the culture changed and carried the church along with it.”

Abstract:
This chapter depicts the continuing non-violent Civil Rights Movement and the continuous efforts of southern white ministers. In Washington, D.C., Randolph Taylor opened his church doors to participants in the March on Washington. In Chapel Hill, demonstrations led by Charles Jones, Clarence Parker, Robert Seymour and students from the University of North Carolina challenged restaurants and businesses that refused to serve and admit African Americans. In Louisville Thomas Moffett, Gilbert Schroerlucke, George Edwards, Grayson Tucker, and Bishop Charles Marmion marched and demonstrated for open housing. Demonstrations in Selma focused on voting rights, not an issue in Chapel Hill or Louisville, but in Selma, where brutality and murder occurred, it was dangerous to protest for anything. Both Chapel Hill and Louisville were locations of major educational institutions, which guaranteed the presence of liberal minded white sympathizers, but hundreds of outside sympathizers arrived in Selma to help demonstrate for voting rights.

Abstract:
Trinity College, as today’s Duke University was called during the Civil War, was founded in 1838. Like most Civil War-era Southern colleges, Trinity closed its doors for a brief period during the most violent months of conflict in North Carolina. Because the college’s closure comprised less than one academic year, its resolve to persevere through the first three years of the war render it an example of Southern higher education’s wartime endurance. During the four years of conflict in which the campus remained open, students and the president himself served the Confederacy as soldiers, company leaders, and prison overseers. This narrative is largely told through the administrative decisions made by the college’s wartime president, Braxton Craven.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter discusses the life and work of Timothy Reese McLaurin, who, as a Rough South writer, portrays, in the ordinary lives of North Carolinians, universal human stories. Born on December 14, 1953, in Fayetteville, North Carolina, McLaurin spent his childhood in Beard, a small community on the outskirts of Fayetteville. These childhood explorations imbued McLaurin with a lifetime love of nature. Fascinated by the creatures he encountered while exploring, McLaurin became adept at handling snakes, a skill he would continue to cultivate. His sense of himself as part of the southern working class, with family and emotional roots in eastern North Carolina, firmly established itself during his childhood and adolescence and would last until the end of his relatively short life. This chapter considers some of McLaurin's novels, including The Acorn Plan, Woodrow's Trumpet, Cured by Fire, The Last Great Snake Show, and Another Son of Man, plus two memoirs: Keeper of the Moon: A Southern Boyhood and The River Less Run.

Abstract:
This chapter offers a local and personal testimony about the influence of William Faulkner. The author of this chapter remembers the day he, while attending Oxford University, received a copy of Soldiers' Pay. It was also the time when he was making his first serious attempt at fiction, with a setting in the part of the South where he had grown up. He suggests that the first, powerful impact of Faulkner's work was by an immediate intuition, not by the exegesis of critics. The author also looks back to the place and time when Faulkner began to write. The chapter argues that Faulkner is the most profound experimenter in the novel that America has produced, but the experiments were developed out of an anguishing research into the southern past and the continuing implications of that past.

Abstract:
The Tripletail, Lobotes surinamensis, is a pelagic fish found in tropical and sub-tropical waters of all oceans. Tripletails are often associated with floating debris and make frequent incursions in bays and estuaries where they are targeted by recreational fishermen. In Mississippi waters the species is typically present during the late spring and summer season that also correspond to the period of sexual maturation and spawning (Brown-Peterson and Franks 2001). Tripletail is appreciated as a gamefish but is also prized for its flesh of superior quality. The fast growth rate of juveniles in captivity documented by Franks et al. (2001) and the excellent quality of Tripletail flesh both contribute to the potential of this species for marine aquaculture. In addition, the production of cultured juveniles would be precious to develop a better understanding of the biology, early life history and habitat use of Tripletail larvae and juveniles, a topic largely undocumented to date, through experimental releases and controlled studies. The culture of tripletail thus supports the Tidelands Trust Fund Program through improved conservation of natural resources, potential enhancement of fisheries productivity and potential development of a new economic activity on the Gulf coast producing tripletail via aquaculture. The Objective of this project was to initiate development of methods and techniques needed to spawn captive held tripletail broodfish and raise their offspring to evaluate their growth and development in captivity. In this report we will present the results of studies aiming to develop methods and protocols for captive spawning of tripletail and the first data obtained on the early development of tripletail larvae. A major issue that was encountered with tripletail broodstock development during the project lied in the difficulties associated with identifying the sex of adults caught in the wild and candidates for being incorporated in mating sets for spawning. This issue was addressed during the course of the project by examining the potential of a non-lethal method of hormonal sexing. The results of these preliminary investigations are presented in the third part of this report. All protocols used in the project were determined with the guidance of the Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (IACUC) of the University of Southern Mississippi (USM IACUC protocol number 10100108).
