Abstract

To study the effects of supplementary irrigation and nano-iron oxide on dry matter remobilization, yield and some biochemical traits of wheat under rainfed conditions, a factorial experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design with three replications in Agricultural Research Station of Ardabil, Ardabil, Iran, in 2016. The experimental factors were included irrigation in three levels (no-irrigation checkor rainfed andsupplementary irrigation at heading and booting stages) and foliar application of nano-iron oxide in four levels (no-application as check andfoliar application of 0.3, 0.6 and 0.9 g.L-1 nano-iron oxide). The results showed that 0.9 g.L-1 nano-iron oxidefoliar application andsupplementary irrigation at booting stage increased current photosynthesis and decreased dry matter remobilization from stem and air parts.Also, foliar application of 0.9 g.L-1nano-iron oxide and supplementary irrigation at booting stage decreased hydrogen peroxide content, malondialdehyde and electrical conductivity of flag leaf, but grain yield increased about 38.43% compared to no-application of nano-iron oxide under rainfed conditions.
