Citrus Pseudolimon: An Overview of Unexplored and Underutilised Plant from Genus Citrus
Genus <i>Citrus</i>, with a handful of the most extensively grown fruit crops in the world, is home to an unknown number of plant species. Since they are very perishable, many neglected citrus varietals are yet unexplored. <i>Citrus pseudolimon</i> Tan., sometimes known as Hill Lemon, is a lesserknown citrus species with relatively little research available on it when compared to other prominent citrus cultivars. To the best of our knowledge and search, there is no review article available detailing the in-depth phyto-pharmacological aspects of this plant with respect to its volatile and non-volatile contents. This review provides a thorough overview of this plant species with respect to the published material that is currently accessible. The current effort focuses on a thorough meta-analysis of the scientific literature and the most recent research updates that are currently accessible. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) guidelines, which are intended for systematic review writing, 481 publications were screened for material relevant to the chosen plant species. An effort has been made to compile the pertinent data about its pharmacological and phytochemical features.
