Arguably this isn’t even bioluminescence. The researchers created nanoparticles of the chemical used in glow in the dark toys (strontium aluminate) and injected it into the plants. It only glows for a few hours after no longer being exposed to sunlight, and the material leaves the plants after 25 days and has to be reinjected.
I don’t see how this isn’t a dead end research path.
