Effect Of Plant Density On The Morphological Trait For Different Varieties Of Wheat (Triticum Aestivum L.)

Abstract

A factor experiment was carried out in the experimental field of Ankawa Research Center, during the spring season of 2023 to find out the effect of plant density on the morphological characteristics of different varieties of wheat. The RCBD design was used, and three varieties of wheat were planted: A99, H2, H4 and with three seeding levels (450, 400, 350) plants. M2. Significant differences were found between the average plant density overlap with wheat varieties for the studied characteristics, the average overlap between the density exceeded (400) plants. M2 and the variety H2 in all the characteristics studied on the rest of the average overlap between densities and varieties. Referring to the average interaction between the density (400) plants. M2 and the variety H2 The value of the average overlap was (101.5 cm) for the plant length characteristic, (67.433 cm2) for the leaf area of the flag leaf, (8) spikes for the number of spikes per plant, (32.156, gm) for the weight of a thousand grains, and (81 gm) for the plant weight characteristic. We conclude that the density exceeds (400) plants. M2 and for all the morphological qualities studied in terms of moral and value of the highest average.
