Trends in plant tissue culture, production, and secondary metabolites enhancement of medicinal plants: a case study of thyme.
Review in Planta, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
MAIN
conclusionThymus plants are greatly threatened by overharvesting and climate change. Plant cell and tissue culture techniques provide effective alternatives for the production and the enhancement of both biomass and bioactive compounds. Medicinal and aromatic plants are rich sources of various bioactive compounds known as secondary metabolites, which are used across a range of fields, including medicinal, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, perfumes, agrochemicals and agrofood industries. Thyme is considered one of the most popular herbs globally, valued for its significant medicinal, pharmaceutical, and nutritional benefits. However, its natural habitats are rapidly diminishing due to excessive harvesting and climate change. Consequently, several approaches have been developed to find alternatives to harvesting wild thyme. Plant cell and tissue culture techniques offer a superior alternative to traditional propagation methods, such as seeds, cuttings, or tuft division. These techniques enable the production of large quantities of uniform, disease-free plantlets for commercial cultivation and facilitate the development of new genotypes. Additionally, they support the production and enhancement of bioactive compounds from thyme plants. This review explores the application of plant cell, tissue, and organ culture biotechnology in thyme plants, focusing on enhancing production and improving secondary metabolite yields and biomass production.
