e5“The exogenous MT could significantly increase the activities of NR,GS,GOGAT and GDH,increased the nitrate content and restrained the accumulation of ammonium content under high temperature stress”
e6“These results indicate that exogenous MT could enhance the nitrogen metabolism of cucumber,reduce the damage of high temperature to the plants,and improve the resistance of cucumber seedlings against high temperature stress”

- Observation Under high temperature stress, leaf nitrate content of both cucumber cultivars first increased and then declined.
- Observation Leaf total nitrogen or ammonium content of Jinyou No.4 declined first under high temperature.
- Observation Leaf total nitrogen or ammonium content of American Baoer increased constantly under high temperature.
- Observation Nitrate reductase activity in both cucumber cultivars first increased and then decreased under high temperature.
- Observation Glutamate synthase, glutamine synthetase and glutamate dehydrogenase activities in cucumber leaves decreased continually under high temperature.
- Observation The four enzyme activities in American Baoer decreased more slowly than in Jinyou No.4 under high temperature.
- Intervention effect Exogenous melatonin significantly increased the activities of NR, GS, GOGAT and GDH in cucumber under high temperature stress.
- Intervention effect Exogenous melatonin restrained the accumulation of ammonium content in cucumber under high temperature stress.
- Intervention effect Exogenous melatonin was expected to reduce the damage of high temperature to cucumber plants.
- Intervention effect Exogenous melatonin was expected to improve the resistance of cucumber seedlings against high temperature stress.
