【Objective】 To explore the effects of salt, alkali and complex salt alkali stress on the photosynthetic characteristics and antioxidant enzyme activity of tomato seedlings.【Methods】 In this study, the salt-tolerant tomato IL7-5-5 and the salt-sensitive tomato M82 were selected as materials, and the seedlings were subjected to the same concentration of salt, alkali and complex salt alkali stress. The photosynthetic characteristics, contents of MDA, , H2O2 and activities of SOD, POD, CAT, APX and GR of tomato seedlings under different stress conditions were studied.【Results】 The results showed that: Compared with the control, under salt stress, photosynthetic gas exchange parameters of M82 tomato seedlings significantly decreased, Pn decreased by 48.10%, WUE increased by 95.81%, POD and CAT activities significantly decreased, and GR activity significantly increased. The contents of and H2O2 were significantly reduced by 15.75% and 25.85%. Leaf Pn, Ci and WUE of IL7-5-5 varieties were significantly decreased by 34.72%, 32.78% and 51.02%, respectively. SOD activity was significantly increased, GR activity was significantly increased, CAT and APX activities were significantly decreased. The contents of MDA, and H2O2 were significantly reduced by 29.48%, 34.47% and 18.66%. Under alkali stress, photosynthetic gas exchange parameters Pn, Gs, Tr and CE of M82 tomato seedlings significantly decreased by 56.40%, 71.02%, 61.93% and 41.73%, Ci significantly decreased by 25.49%, POD and CAT activities significantly increased, and APX activities significantly decreased. MDA content was significantly increased by 40.55%, while and H2O2 contents were significantly decreased by 25.80% and 20.48%. Photosynthetic gas exchange parameters Pn, Gs and Ci of IL7-5-5 tomato seedlings significantly decreased by 68.75%, 74.65% and 59.49%, Tr and CE significantly decreased by 63.69% and 21.54%, SOD activity significantly increased, CAT and GR activities significantly decreased. The production rate of decreased by 10.18%. Under salt-alkali stress, photosynthetic gas exchange parameters Pn, Gs, Ci, Tr and CE of M82 tomato seedlings significantly decreased by 44.64%, 67.05%, 37.46%, 56.56% and 11.58%, POD activity significantly decreased, APX activity significantly decreased, significantly decreased by 34.06%. MDA content was significantly increased by 37.44%; Photosynthetic gas exchange parameters Pn and Gs of IL7-5-5 tomato seedlings significantly decreased by 27.78% and 78.87%, Tr significantly decreased by 69.05%, WUE significantly increased by 128.17%, GR and SOD activity significantly increased, and production rate significantly decreased by 25.30%.【Conclusion】 Both tomato varieties can achieve the effect of eliminating and H2O2 by adjusting the activity of antioxidant enzymes. The content of MDA of IL7-5-5 tomato seedlings is maintained at the control level, and the degree of membrane lipid peroxidation is lighter than that of M82 tomato varieties. Under the three stress conditions, the photosynthetic rate of tomato seedlings decrease, and the alkali stress is the lowest in both varieties. Both alkali and saline-alkali stress causes membrane lipid peroxidation damage to M82 tomato seedlings to a certain extent. Stress can regulate the activity of antioxidant enzymes and the contents of and H2O2 in the leaves of the two tomato varieties to different degrees. The contents of H2O2 are the lowest in both tomato varieties under salt stress, followed by alkali stress and saline-alkali stress.
