Aloe vera is a drought resistant plant. It has glycoproteins, anthraquinones, polysaccharides and some low-molecular-weight product. It was plays very important role in adaptable to adverse condition. This experiment was conduct in RGSC Barkachha Mirzapur during winter and summer season 2014-15, for differentiation of their component and resistance in dry condition. Aloin, proline, glucose and fructose were analysis in winter and summer season. After analysis of dry weight determined that, aloe components were fluctuating in different summer and winter season. Drought stress increases the aloe secondary metabolites. Proline was a vital substance for aloe survible which resist to drought; it increases in leaves during summer season. But, aloe plants were damage near the soil attachment in presence of more moisture. In addition found that cold stress damaged cellular membrane of aloe more severely than drought stress. This indicated that aloe was better survible in drought condition than cold stress.
