Polymer-coated carbon nanotube hybrids with functional peptides for gene delivery into plant mitochondria

The delivery of genetic material into plants is challenging due to the cell wall barrier. Here, the authors hybridize polymer-coated carbon nanotubes with functional peptides to deliver plasmid DNA cargo into intact plant mitochondria for transient expression and homologous recombination at high eff...
