Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory researchers further develop duckweek for bioenergy
In New York state, under the right conditions, duckweed essentially farms itself. Wastewater, ponds, puddles, swamps—you name it. If there’s enough sunlight and carbon dioxide, the aquatic plant can grow freely. But that’s not all that makes it intriguing.
