The role of nanoparticles in transforming plant genetic engineering: advancements, challenges and future prospects.
Review in Functional & integrative genomics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Despite years of progress in biotechnology, altering the genetic makeup of many plant species, especially their plastids, remains challenging. The existence of a cell wall poses a significant obstacle to the effectual transportation of biomolecules. Developing efficient methods to introduce genes into plant cells and organelles without causing harm is an ongoing area of research. Traditional approaches like Agrobacterium-mediated transformation, biolistic particle delivery, electroporation and polyethylene glycol (PEG) transformation have shown some success but come with limitations like laborious, time-consuming and causing tissue damage. For instance, the Agrobacterium method can be applied only to the restricted host range, while PEG transformation and biolistic particle delivery are not very efficient. In contrast, nanotechnology made an appearance in the field of genetic engineering. Nanoparticles act as delivery vehicles for many cargos in animals. However, in plants, the application of nanocarriers for the delivery of biomolecules is still in its infant stage. Nonetheless, it holds immense potential for the future of plant biotechnology and genome editing.
