The circadian clock is an endogenous timing system based on the self-sustained oscillation in individual cells. These cellular circadian clocks compose a multicellular circadian system working at respective levels of tissue, organ, plant body. However, how numerous cellular clocks are coordinated within a plant has been unclear. There was little information about behavior of circadian clocks at a single-cell level due to the difficulties in monitoring circadian rhythms of individual cells in an intact plant. We developed a single-cell bioluminescence imaging system using duckweed as the plant material and succeeded in observing behavior of cellular clocks in intact plants for over a week. This imaging technique quantitatively revealed heterogeneous and independent manners of cellular clock behaviors. Furthermore, these quantitative analyses uncovered the local synchronization of cellular circadian rhythms that implied phase-attractive interactions between cellular clocks. The cell-to-cell interaction looked to be too weak to coordinate cellular clocks against their heterogeneity under constant conditions. On the other hand, under light-dark conditions, the heterogeneity of cellular clocks seemed to be corrected by cell-to-cell interactions so that cellular clocks showed a clear spatial pattern of phases at a whole plant level. Thus, it was suggested that the interactions between cellular clocks was an adaptive trait working under day-night cycles to coordinate cellular clocks in a plant body. These findings provide a novel perspective for understanding spatio-temporal architectures in the plant circadian system.
