Influence of Salinity on Duckweed Growth and Duckweed Based Wastewater Treatment System [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Water Resource and Protection, 2013
The growth of duckweed (Spirodela polyrrhiza) was investigated in an outdoor batch system under 15 different conductivities ranging from 200 μS/cm to 3000 μS/cm with average 110 µmol/m2 daylight intensity. The growth was performed in an anaerobically treated domestic wastewater using an initial plants population of 50 fronds.

Status of duckweed genomics and transcriptomics

Plant Biology, 2014
AbstractDuckweeds belong to the smallest flowering plants that undergo fast vegetative growth in an aquatic environment. They are commonly used in wastewater treatment and animal feed. Whereas duckweeds have been studied at the biochemical level, their reduced morphology and wide environmental adaption had not been subjected to molecular analysis until

Resurgence of duckweed research and applications: report from the 3rd International Duckweed Conference

Plant Molecular Biology, 2015
Duckweed, flowering plants in the Lemnaceae family, comprises the smallest angiosperms in the plant kingdom. They have some of the fastest biomass accumulation rates reported to date for plants and have the demonstrated ability to thrive on wastewater rich in dissolved organic compounds and thus could help to remediated polluted water resources and ...

Duckweed rising at Chengdu: summary of the 1st International Conference on Duckweed Application and Research

Plant Molecular Biology, 2012
Duckweeds, plants of the Lemnaceae family, have the distinction of being the smallest angiosperms in the world with the fastest doubling time. Together with its naturally ability to thrive on abundant anthropogenic wastewater, these plants hold tremendous potential to helping solve critical water, climate and fuel issues facing our planet this century.

The duckweeds: A valuable plant for biomanufacturing

2005
Inherent characteristics of duckweed, including fast, clonal growth, small size and simple growth habit, argue for their use as a biomanufacturing platform for proteins, polymers and small molecules. This review addresses five areas relevant to commercialization of the duckweed platform: (1) the characteristics of wild-type duckweed and general ...

Transformation Development in Duckweeds

2020
There are five genera (Spirodela, Landoltia, Lemna, Wolffiella and Wolffia) of duckweed species widely distributed in various freshwater habitats worldwide. Rapid growth rate, predominantly asexual reproduction and floating growth made them ideal for a plant model.

Small RNAs in Duckweeds

2020
Within eukaryotic genomes, there are several types of small RNAs including sn, sno, si, and miRNAs. With respect to the Lemnaceae family, the vast majority of the research to date has been conducted in Spirodela polyrhiza, focused mainly on the miRNAs. This research consists of three small RNA-sequencing experiments in strains from China, Germany, and ...

Benefits of Duckweeds for Phytoremediation

Aquatic plants, commonly known as duckweeds, represent a group of 36 species in the family Lemnaceae. Duckweeds are often regarded as detrimental to the environment because of their ability to quickly populate and cover the water surfaces due to their rapid vegetative propagation.
