Standardized Ileal Digestibility of Protein and Amino Acids in Black Soldier Fly Larvae and Duckweed in Broiler Chickens [PDF]

Animals
Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) and duckweed are potential alternative feed ingredients for sustainable poultry production. This study aimed to determine the standardized ileal digestibility (SID) of amino acids (AAs) in BSFL, Lemna, and Spirodela ...

A Preliminary Study of the Impacts of Duckweed Coverage during Rice Growth on Grain Yield and Quality

Plants, 2023
The overuse and misuse of fertilizers have been causing duckweed outbreaks in irrigation ditches and paddy fields in many rice-growing areas. However, how duckweed coverage in a paddy field affects the rice yield and grain quality is under debate because

Effect of Duckweed (Spirodela polyrhiza)-Supplemented Semolina on the Production Parameters and Nutrient Composition of Yellow Mealworm (Tenebrio molitor)

Agriculture, 2023
This research explores the potential of using common duckweed (Spyrodela polyrhiza) as a feeding substrate and supplement for yellow mealworm production. Duckweed is known for its high content of protein (20–35%) and essential amino acids.

Nitric oxide (NO) involved in Cd tolerance in NHX1 transgenic duckweed during Cd stress

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2022
Anthropogenic activities cause heavy metal pollution, such as cadmium (Cd). Na+/H+ antiporter (NHX1) transgenic duckweed showed Cd tolerance in our previous study, and the signal mechanism needs to be explored.

Density Dependence Influences the Efficacy of Wastewater Remediation by Lemna minor

Plants, 2021
As part of a circular economy (CE) approach to food production systems, Lemnaceae, i.e., duckweed species, can be used to remediate wastewater due to rapid nutrient assimilation and tolerance of non-optimal growing conditions. Further, given rapid growth
