Duckweeds are aquatic monocotyledonous plants known to be the smallest and the fastest growing angiosperms. The 7th International Conference on Duckweed Research and Applications (7th ICDRA) was held in Bangkok, Thailand, from 12th to 16th November 2024. The conference drew young and experienced scientists from across the world who presented their research in varied fields. This conference report presents the highlights of the advancements in the field of duckweed research and application in the sections: Genomics and Cell Biology; Diversity, Ecology, Evolution; Physiology, Reproduction, Metabolomics; Microbiome and Interactions; Applications; and Future Outlook. The next conference, 8th ICDRA, will be held in Naples, Italy, in 2026.
浮萍是水生单子叶植物，被认为是最小且生长最快的被子植物。第七届浮萍研究与应用国际会议（第七届ICDRA）于2024年11月12日至16日在泰国曼谷举行。该会议吸引了来自世界各地的年轻且经验丰富的科学家，他们展示了各自在不同领域的研究成果。本会议报告在以下章节呈现了浮萍研究与应用领域的进展亮点：基因组学与细胞生物学；多样性、生态学、进化；生理学、繁殖、代谢组学；微生物组与相互作用；应用；以及未来展望。下一届会议，即第八届ICDRA，将于2026年在意大利那不勒斯举行。
