Upper body, adding something for the back would be good, but IMO that's the most challenging area to work without equipment.

Yup. If you have a sturdy table, I'd suggest "horizontal pull-ups"/inverted rows.

Or there's this nifty unsupported row.

Or try pushups on your knees, or against the wall.

All the things you're learning from planks about holding your torso stable will really help with inverted rows and push-ups.
