Análise proteômica de Lemnaceae associada à produção de biomassa e bioenergia
… angiospermas conhecidas, agrupadas na família Lemnaceae. Estas plantas apresentam capacidade natural de se adaptar e colonizar água residual antropogênica, reciclando diversos poluentes e gerando elevada quantidade de biomassa, o que têm despertado interesse para tratamento de efluentes e para …

Preference and Performance of the Water Lily Aphid (Rhopalosiphum Nymphaeae) among Native and Invasive Duckweeds (Lemnaceae)
… variety of host plants including members of the Lemnaceae family. Many studies have focused on the relationship between herbivore preference and performance on different host plants, and as such the goal of this study was to determine if there is any relationship between host plant preference and …

Exploring the potential of duckweed (Lemnaceae) as a circular protein crop on agri-food industry wastewaters
Increasing human populations, global warming, and dwindling natural resources are putting significant strain on food production systems. Current livestock systems are inherently inefficient and require large inputs of plant proteins (e.g., soybeans), the cultivation of which is unsustainable. …

Waste remediation and value creation: the recovery of nutrients from dairy industry wastewater using the aquatic plant Lemna minor
… which was assessed in this thesis using aquatic Lemnaceae, i.e. duckweed. Accordingly, environmentally polluting compounds, such as N and P, are removed from the wastewater by plant action and in duckweed a valuable biomass is created which can be used as a feed or biofuel. In general, it was …

Evaluation of the microbial risks associated with duckweed cultivation on agro-industrial wastewaters
… freshwater plants belonging to the family Lemnaceae. These plants can be found worldwide and are characterized by high growth rates and high protein content (up to 35% per unit dry weight). In addition, these plants have been shown to grow on a range of high nutrient load, agricultural and …

The mechanisms behind alternative community states: Understanding producer composition in temporary and semipermanent wetlands
In many ecological communities, variation in composition appears discontinuous, in that a discrete set of community states (or distinct taxa assemblages) have been observed repeatedly in one ecosystem type. Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain this discontinuous variation in community …
