Biomimetic synthesis of nanoparticles is a burgeoning field with its environmentally friendly and
reproducibility approaches. Nowadays different nanoparticles with various physical and chemical
parameters have been synthesized by using different plant or plant parts. This paper highlighted the
knowledge and gaps related with phyto-synthesis of nanoparticles. 83 three plants along-with various
related information viz., habit and modules of phyto-reducing agents, their selection criteria,
characterization, factor affecting for their synthesis, size, shape and stabilization have been discussed.
Their antimicrobial properties as well as their potential to improve the limitation of herbal drugs have
also been addressed. Gap analysis revealed the need for the synthesis of important nutrients (like
phosphorus, zinc, magnesium, iron etc.) in nano-particle forms so that their availability and targeted
distribution may be achieved. Biological Distribution of various green nano-particles also need to
evaluated
