Plants can be an alternative source of nutritional and biofunctional ingredients. Cytisus plants are an underexploited bioresource, currently prevalent in the Mediterranean Basin and western Asia. This manuscript addresses the processing potential of Cytisus plants for the development of added-value products, including food formulations, food packaging, cosmetics, and therapeutic applications. Most research has reported that Cytisus spp. are a promising source of inexpensive bioactive polyphenol compounds. Cytisus flowers should be considered and exploited as raw materials for the development of new food ingredients (antioxidants, preservatives, additives, etc.), nutraceuticals, or even direct therapeutic agents (anticancer, antibacterial, etc.). In order to evaluate the socioeconomic effect of these underutilized plants, more research is needed to assess their valorization for therapeutic and dietary possibilities, as well as the economic impact. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.es 6.6 2024 BIOCHEMISTRY & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 46 / 320 = 0.144 2024 Q1 T1 FOOD SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 22 / 182 = 0.121 2024 Q1 T1 CHEMISTRY, MEDICINAL 8 / 72 = 0.111 2024 Q1 T1 1.484 2024 Biochemistry 2024 Q1 Clinical Biochemistry 2024 Q1 Physiology 2024 Q1 Food Science 2024 Q1 Molecular Biology 2024 Q1 Cell Biology 2024 Q2 12.4 2024 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Genisheva, Zlatina Rodríguez-Yoldi, María Jesús Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-3595-7668 Gullón, Beatriz Costa, Carlos E.
