Abstract

Background and Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the characteristics of the aerial parts of different species of wheat with different ploidy levels under the application of magnetic water and salinity stress,
Materials and Methods: In this regard, in order to evaluate the characteristics of the aerial parts of different species of wheat with different ploidy levels under the application of magnetic water and salinity stress, an experiment as a factorial based on a complete randomized block design with three replications in 2019 . The first factor is the type of water (normal and magnetic), the second factor is the salinity of irrigation water in three levels of 0, 3 and 6 deciSiemens per meter (sodium chloride) and the third factor is the species and cultivars of wheat.
Results: The mean leaf chlorophyll content index, vegetative traits, yield and yield components of species and wheat cultivars decreased significantly in moderate and severe salinity. Magnetizing irrigation water alleviated the negative effects of salinity stress on leaf chlorophyll content index, some vegetative traits, and wheat grain yield. The average of the measured traits showed the superiority of Kuhdasht and Chamran cultivars compared to other wheat species and cultivars in the different salinity levels.
Conclusion: Therefore, based on the results, it can be concluded that pre-treatment of salt water with a specific magnetic field and the use of suitable cultivars such as Kuhdasht and Chamran, will improve wheat yield.
