Planar cell polarization (PCP) of motile cilia allows directional fluid flow generation within body cavities. However the mechanisms underlying PCP of ciliated epithelia are still poorly understood. Here we use the zebrafish floor-plate (FP) to investigate these mechanisms. Using both fixed samples and live-imaging, we show that asymmetric cilia positioning at the posterior side of FP cells is a progressive and asynchronous process between neighbouring cells. As development proceeds, basal bodies (BB, modified centrioles at the base of cilia) spend more time in contact with the posterior membrane and stop making contacts with the anterior membranes. We investigate the role of Par3 in FP cells polarization. We find that Par3 is enriched at t...
