Geranic acid
Geranic acid is a monoterpenemainly used in flavor, fragrance, cosmetics and agro-industries[1]. In vitro studies show that geranic acid exhibits strong inhibitory activity against Fusarium graminearum and Colletotrichum graminicola, the two main fungal pathogens of maize[2]. It also exhibits antitumor activity[3].
