Abstract

---

Rate of respiration and activities of amylase , acid and alkaline phosphatase were compared in glycophytic and halophytic spinach grown on normal and saline soils. Increase in the specific activities of invertase and acid phosphatase associated with the decrease in the specific activity of alkaline phosphatase was noticed in halophytic spinach diversified behavior of enzymes in response to the salinity in various halophytes was attributed to their specific internal metabolism depending on the nature of adaption.
