In the field of plant biology, tissue culture is having colossal applications, for example, the
production of disease-free plants and their mass multiplication, germplasm preservation, genetic
manipulation to get improved variety as well as the production of biologically active compounds.
The integration of nanotechnology and application of nanoparticles (NPs) has shown a positive response in the elimination of microbial contaminants and induction of callus, somatic embryogenesis,
organogenesis, production of secondary metabolites, and genetic transformation. This paper aims to
highlight some of the recent advancements that came possible through the implementation of nanotechnology in the field of plant tissue culture and also discusses both positives and negatives aspects
associated with NPs in plant tissue culture. The prospects through the involvement of recent innovations of nanotechnology such as dendrimers, quantum dots, and carbon nanotubes are also proposed.
