Citrus is the most cultivated fruit crop in the world, playing a significant role in the country's economy. While about 33% of citrus fruits are processed for juice production, a considerable amount of waste is also produced. Pruning citrus trees to improve fruit quality results in the production of a large amount of leaves containing a wide range of bioactive phytochemicals.
Citrus is the most cultivated fruit crop in the world and occupies a place of considerable importance in the country's economy. Almost 33% of the citrus fruits are processed for juice production; however, a great amount of wastes, including peels, segment membranes, and seeds are also produced. Indeed, citrus fruits consist of 45% juice, 26% pulp, 27% peels, and 2% seeds. Pruning, a cultural practice involving the removal of tree branches and limbs, was applied to improve fruit's quality. A large amount of leaves are produced through pruning. These agrifood matrices contain a wide range of bioactive phytochemicals compared to fruits. The present review covers the past 5 years of research carried out in chemistry, health properties, and applications in food and nutraceutical industries of all portions of citrus fruit and its major bioactive compounds. Additionally, patents are also included.
