In recent years, in the entire chain of citrus production and sales, quality problems such as confusion and fraud of citrus variety and origin as well as shoddy products have become prominent. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to study the authenticity traceability technologies for citrus products. The existing reports still do not provide a systematic review and summary of the research progress on the authenticity traceability technologies for citrus products. This paper focuses on sorting out and reviewing the application of stable isotope and multi-element analysis, metabolomics analysis, flavor substance analysis, spectral analysis and nucleic acid amplification detection technologies in the authenticity traceability research of citrus products. The advantages and disadvantages of various traceability technologies were summarized. The deficiency of the research on the origin and quality grade identification of the navel orange in Hubei province was pointed out, while the future research direction was prospected, in order to provide certain technical support for the origin traceability and quality supervision of navel orange in Hubei Province.
