Population genomics and epigenomics of Spirodela polyrhiza provide insights into the evolution of facultative asexuality.

Many plants are facultatively asexual, balancing short-term benefits with long-term costs of asexuality. During range expansion, natural selection likely influences the genetic controls of asexuality in these organisms. However, evidence of natural selection driving asexuality is limited, and the evolutionary consequences of asexuality on the genomic and epigenomic diversity remain controversial.

Survival Strategies of Duckweeds, the World's Smallest Angiosperms.

Duckweeds (Lemnaceae) are small, simply constructed aquatic higher plants that grow on or just below the surface of quiet waters. They consist primarily of leaf-like assimilatory organs, or fronds, that reproduce mainly by vegetative replication. Despite their diminutive size and inornate habit, duckweeds have been able to colonize and maintain themselves in almost all of the world's climate zones.
