<scp>CsRAP2</scp> ‐1‐ <scp>CsNPF4</scp> .4‐ <scp>CsAMT1</scp> module regulates ammonium/nitrate ratio to mediate thermotolerance in cucumber
to enhance high-temperature stress tolerance. These findings not only uncover a regulatory module CsRAP2-1-CsNPF4.4-CsAMT1 that fine-tunes ammonium/nitrate homeostasis to enhance thermotolerance, but also provide actionable targets for molecular breeding or nutrient management strategies aimed at improving crop resilience under high-temperature stress.
