Compared to their macro-sized counterparts, these tiny nanoparticles exhibit a multitude of size-dependent properties. Plant tissue culture (PTC) plays an important role in bioactive chemical synthesis, mass cultivation, protection, genetic control, and plant enhancement. Different nanoparticles (NPs) are utilized to improve the tissue culture responses of explants. Various nanoparticles, including cobalt, copper, silver, gold, zinc, selenium, titanium, iron, palladium, cerium, indium, manganese, aluminum, barium, silicon, nickel, zirconium, and their oxides, are used in this regard. Nowadays, it is critical to use nanosystems in conjunction with PTC for mass reproduction, conservation, genetic engineering, crop enhancement, and the synthesis of bioactive compounds. Nanostructured metal oxides play an important role in in vitro plant cultivation. The use of metal nanoparticles (MNPs) has successfully removed microbial contaminants from explants and had a favorable impact on organogenesis (increasing the growth of shoots, roots, and multiplication ratios), callus induction, metabolic changes, and the synthesis of secondary metabolites (NPs are used as elicitors or stress agents). Additionally, NPs cause somaclonal variation (modifications to DNA), improve cryopreservation (increasing the survival rate), and enhance genetic transformation (facilitating gene transformation to bypass the plant cell wall barrier and accelerating protoplast isolation). This review aims to summarize the current breakthroughs achieved by integrating nanotechnology with PTC.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>","PeriodicalId":20219,"journal":{"name":"Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture","volume":"44 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141945014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Phenotypic characterization revealed significant differences in leaf morphology and chlorophyll content between tetraploid and diploid plants. Moreover, tetraploid plants exhibited decreased water loss and electrolyte leakage during cold stress assessments compared to their diploid counterparts. Pigment content analysis indicated differential responses to cold stress, with tetraploid plants generally exhibiting greater total phenolic compound content.

The present study explored the influence of white light supplemented with different wavelengths on ginseng sprout growth at both low (30) and high (200) µmol m<sup>− 2</sup> s<sup>− 1</sup> PPFD intensities. Significant variations in growth were noted between the two light intensities. Specifically, the green light combination proved advantageous for enhancing both growth and photosynthesis across both intensity levels. The chlorophyll fluorescence characteristics, stomatal properties, total soluble sugars, total soluble proteins, and root activity were notably enhanced by W + G (200 PPFD) treatment. Enzymatic and non-enzymatic antioxidant activities were predominantly influenced by W + R treatments at both intensity levels. Low light, particularly, W + R (30 PPFD) and W + G (30 PPFD) significantly increased mineral content in both the shoot and root. Low light intensities positively influenced the accumulation of ginsenosides Rd, F<sub>2</sub>, and Rg<sub>1</sub> in treatments W, W + R, and W + G, respectively while Rd<sub>2</sub> accumulation was greatly promoted by high intensity white light treatment, W (200 PPFD). Gene expression involved in the ginsenoside biosynthesis pathway aligned with ginsenoside accumulation.
