Genome diversity and evolution of the duckweed section Alatae comprising diploids, polyploids, and interspecific hybrids. [PDF]
SUMMARY The section Alatae of genus Lemna of the monocotyledonous aquatic duckweed family (Lemnaceae) consists of rather diverse accessions with unknown phylogeny and unclear taxonomic assignment. In contrast to other duckweeds, some Alatae accessions, in addition to mainly vegetative propagation, produce readily flowers and viable seeds.

Lemnaceae as Novel Crop Candidates for CO2 Sequestration and Additional Applications [PDF]
Atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) is projected to be twice as high as the pre-industrial level by 2050. This review briefly highlights key responses of terrestrial plants to elevated CO2 and compares these with the responses of aquatic floating plants of ...

A Comparison of Growth on Mercuric Chloride for Three Lemnaceae Species Reveals Differences in Growth Dynamics That Effect Their Suitability for Use in Either Monitoring or Remediating Ecosystems Contaminated With Mercury [PDF]
Mercury (Hg) is a toxic heavy metal that can alter the ecological balance when it contaminates aquatic ecosystems. Previously, researchers have used various Lemnaceae species either to monitor and/or remove heavy metals from freshwater systems.

Competition Between Lemna minuta, Lemna minor, and Azolla filiculoides. Growing Fast or Being Steadfast? [PDF]
A substantial number of Lemnaceae are invasive outside their natural distribution area. Lemna minuta is considered invasive in several European countries, where it can occur in the same habitat as invasive Azolla filiculoides and native Lemna minor.

Experimental research compared aquaculture of certain species of the Lemna genus with demonstration of environmental requirements and of the adaptations to environmental conditions specific to aquatic eutroph-polytroph ecosystems [PDF]
The macrophyte plants Lemnaceae are abundant in the tropical and subtropical regions but now present in the Danube Delta. The plant grows in water with high levels of N, P, and K, synthesizing protein at a remarkable rate. Used as food and feed in some
