Bioresources are of significance to humans as potential source of raw material, feedstock, for product and energy generation with economic and industrial viability. Duckweed known as ‘water lentils’, are surface, beneath surface floating plants in fresh and brackish water systems of Lemnaceae family. Duckweedsbestow remarkable bioresource potential to aquaculture practices in terms of sustainable feed, value added production and,energy generation (biofuels) with potential of bioremediation and waste-water treatment. This paper explores bibliometric collection ofvarious works discussing the bioresource potential of duckweed in aquaculture practices.Astute linkages of China, India, US are visualized in terms of publications, citations and total link strength as top three contributors country wise. Organization wiseHenan Province Engineering Research Center, China has maximum documents, citations and total linkage. Central themes observed through keywords and title field depict developing trends on the topic.
