Salinity stress can cause the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) which
disrupt the metabolic processes in plants. The plant possess enzymatic antioxidant and
non-enzymatic antioxidant defence mechanism to prevent the formation of ROS. The
objective of this experiment was to investigate the effect of different concentrations of
NaCl on the specific activities of antioxidative enzymes in Homalomena sp. cultures.
