Abstract | ||
An experiment was conducted in the field ( in the Baghdad / Abu Ghraib in the calcareous soil classified within the range of soils Great Typic Torrifluvent) in order to study the effect of salinity Stress ( water of the Irrigation , 3 and 6 ds/ m ) on five varieties of Bread wheat ( Al-Fateh,AL-Tahadi,AL-Iraq, Sally and Adnanah ) during 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 . experiment setup using split plot design ,salinity stress as main plot and varieties as subplot. Means were compared using LSD at P0.05. The results showed that increased levels of salinity stress led to a reduction in all the indicators studied ( plant height , number of tillers/ m2 , flag leaf area, dry weight of a flag leaf, spike length , number spikelet's / spike, number of grains spike , 1000-grains weight and grains yield in both seasons, and in all varieties under study . Iraq given highest values for all indicators studied in both seasons , when it is grown under salt stress compared to other varieties . | ||
