| Abstract | ||
| Field experiment was carried out at Almusaib project in Babylon Government,In sandy loam soil which is classifiedas verttie Torvifluvent.The RCBD in split plot was used.The study involes the following first.Three level of water stress normal when decrease25% from field capacity medium and high stress when decrease40 % and160 % from field capacity respectively . And the second factor three level from potassium element was added as potassium sulfate40 , 160 , and 320 kg . h-1,to study the effect of Potassium on the different part and yield of wheat plant . The results showed that there was a decrease in dry matter of the blade leaf ,sheath, stem weight, roots weight, dry spike and the total dry matter with increase water stress mean while there was an increase of all studied traits in the high potassium fertilization treatment at normal water stress(control). | ||
