Abstract: With pot culture, this paper studied the effects of drought stress on water contents of plant tissues, the protective enzyme activities, contents of MDA, proline, soluble protein in Nigeria eggplant leaves. The results indicated that the activities of SOD and POD and the MDA content increased along with the increase of stress time, and the activities of SOD, POD, contents of MDA, proline, soluble protein in Nigeria eggplant leaves were higher than local check variety obviously. This indicated that the drought-resistant ability of Nigeria eggplant was higher than the check variety.
