DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Tokitaka Oyama (Grad Sch Sci\, Kyoto Univ)\nDuckweed
 s serve as ideal model plants for whole-plant imaging due to their simple 
 two-dimensional structure and compact size. Using bioluminescent reporters
 \, we have achieved long-term\, continuous monitoring of gene expression d
 ynamics at both the whole-plant and single-cell levels (*Sci Adv* 2016\; *
 New Phytol* 2021\; *Plant Physiol* 2023). These studies spatiotemporally r
 evealed dynamics of circadian and diel gene expression in duckweed. While 
 these bioluminescence techniques were originally developed for duckweeds\,
  they have recently been applied to other species\, such as *Arabidopsis* 
 (*Sci Rep* 2025). In this presentation\, we will highlight the unique biol
 uminescence behaviors specific to duckweeds (and aquatic plants) and intro
 duce new applications of bioluminescent reporters for monitoring plant phy
 siological processes. Finally\, we will discuss the advantages and limitat
 ions of duckweeds as a model system.\n\nhttps://indico.unina.it/event/117/
