We developed a technique that enables a micro-area illumination in a duckweed plant by fixing a tip of an optical fiber inside the plant body. This method should be used for the analysis about cell-to-cell light signal transmission: from light-perceived cells to cells without receiving light. To analyze the cell-to-cell light signal transmission in the circadian clock system, we developed a bioluminescence monitoring system at a single-cell level. This will be used in combination with the micro-area illumination method.
