Wolffia, also known as duckweed, is the fastest-growing plant known, but the genetics underlying this strange little plant’s success have long been a mystery to scientists. Now, thanks to advances in genome sequencing, researchers are learning what makes this plant uniqueand, in the process, discovering some fundamental principles of plant biology and growth.
A multi-investigator effort led by scientists from the Salk Institute is reporting new findings about the plant’s genome that explain how…
