Abstract:

Low temperature and weak light stress are major challenges in the protected cultivation of winter pepper in China as they have significant impact on the yield and quality of pepper. This article presents a comprehensive review of the current research progress on chili pepper under low temperature,weak light,and low temperature combined with weak light stress within China and internationally. The physiological responses,including growth characteristics,physiological and biochemical characteristics,and photosynthetic characteristics,and molecular responses of pepper to these stresses were summarized. Additionally,The future research prospects for enhancing the tolerance of pepper to the dual stress of low temperature and weak light were provided.

Key words: pepper, low temperature, weak light, stress, mechanism, review
