Nanoparticle-specific changes in Arabidopsis thaliana gene expression after exposure to ZnO, TiO2, and fullerene soot.

TL;DR: The data clearly indicate that the mechanisms of phytotoxicity are highly nanoparticle dependent despite of a limited overlap in gene expression response, which resulted in up- and down-regulation of genes involved mainly in responses to biotic and abiotic stimuli.
