The cultivation and production of cucumber are seriously affected by downy mildew caused by . Downy mildew damages leaves, stems and inflorescences, and then reduces the yield and quality of cucumber. This review summarized the research advances in cucumber downy mildew, including pathogen detection and defense pathways, regulatory factors, mining of pathogens-resistant candidate genes, proteomic and genomic analysis, and development of QTL remarks.

Article Synopsis
  • Flowering is an essential phase in plant growth that influences seed production and overall crop yield.
  • The process is controlled by intricate genetic networks, with many flowering genes producing different transcripts via alternative splicing to manage when flowering occurs.
  • The paper reviews the molecular processes of alternative splicing in flowering regulation and suggests future areas for research exploration.
