Can you or someone provide me how such an Org file with citation
definition and reference looks like?

Do you know who the author of zotero.el? The file header in zotero.el
has no author info.
https://bitbucket.org/egh/zotero-plain/src/66353860ebdd/elisp/zotero.el

Assuming that prior work in zotero.el is reasonably complete and usable
- in so far as retrieving all fields associated with a zotero reference
- getting citation sections and references in ODT export shouldn't be a
difficult issue.

I am making these comments as the author of org-odt.el.
