Abstract：High-temperature stress is an inevitable stress to protected vegetable cultivation．This paper expounded the negative effects of high-temperature stress on cucumber（Cucumis sativus L.）nutrient growth，physiological and biochemical characters，reproductive growth，yield and quality．It also introduced the genetic law of cucumber heat tolerance and summarized the methods to identify cucumber heat tolerance and technical measures to improve this heat tolerance．Finally the paper prospected the research orientation for further studying cucumber heat tolerance in the future.
