Sugarcane is (Saccharum officinarum L.) is one of the most important commercial crops of the world, including region where water availability is limited or highly inconsistent. Abiotic stresses may decline in potential yield of crop plants by 70 %. In sugarcane numerous environmental factors can have negative effects on the increase in expansion of production and salinity stress is one of the most limiting abiotic factors affecting sugarcane productivity. Two sugarcane varieties viz., MS-10001 and CoC-671 were sown in the pots and were evaluated for antioxidative enzymes activity of Ascorbate peroxidase (APX), Catalase (CAT) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD) under different salt stress levels (0, 2, 4, 8 dSm-1). The activity of antioxidative enzymes APX was recorded highest in MS-10001 at (2, 4, 8 dSm-1) salt stresses and less per cent increase was found in APX activity in CoC-671 at different salt stress level. The activity of antioxidative enzymes Superoxide dismutase and catalase was recorded higher in MS-10001 as compared to CoC-671.
