Low temperature and high humidity affect dynamics of chlorophyll biosynthesis and secondary metabolites in Cucumber
The results indicate that LT + HRH stress significantly impairs chlorophyll biosynthesis in cucumber seedlings by drastically reducing pigment accumulation, altering enzyme activity and gene expression. Additionally, LT + HRH stress induces oxidative damage, which further exacerbates the decline in chlorophyll content and affects overall cucumber metabolism.
