Effect of water stress on growth and yield performance of four wheat cultivars viz. Pasban-90, Barani-83, Punjab-85 and Rohtas-90 was studied at University of Agriculture, Faisalabad. Water stress during reproductive development decreased grain yield ha -1 of wheat compared with control through reduction in number of fertile tillers m <SUPER>-2</SUPER> and grains per spike and 1000-grain weight but did not differ significantly from water stress during the vegetative development. Rohtas-90 produced higher grain yield than Barani-83 both under normal and water stress conditions but was statistically at par with Pasban-90 and Punjab-85. The result suggested that water stress during vegetative and reproductive development is equally injurious to wheat and adequate water supply throughout crop development is essential to harvest its maximum biological potential. <br><br> |
