Overview: Describes duckweeds: the fastest-growing, most widely distributed, and morphologically reduced angiosperms on the planet.Covers the latest findings in modern genetics, epigenetics, cytogenetics, transThis book tells the story behind the first Spirodela genome sequencing project. Further, it describes the current genomics applications of these findings, and efforts to sequence new genomes within the family. The closing chapters address the sequencing of the over 1 Gigabase Wolffia genomes, which could have major impacts on genome evolution and agricultural research. . .The duckweed o
