Current Progress on the Responses of Eggplant to Ultra-Low Temperatures during Production

Cold stress has an adverse effect on eggplant growth and is a yield-limiting factor. Low temperatures are prevalent during early spring cultivation in temperate climates, they have negative impact development. Temperatures below the eggplant’s optimum temperature (22-30ºC) considered low detrimental to In this review, we described how eggplants respond moderately cold at different scales. We compiled literature current understanding of physiological, cellular responses as well transcriptional regulation stress. Subsequently, also highlight genetic molecular evidence, particularly function cold-responsive genes strengthening tolerance eggplant. Lastly, covered role mineral nutrients useful microorganisms alleviating consequences roots. Agronomic management practices such use AMF species may mitigate effects enhancement crop varieties with high yield throughout
