Abstract
The study entitled “Response of wheat genotypes to salinity under field environment” was conducted to investigate the response of different wheat genotypes to salinity stresses. The experiment was laid out at three different locations of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan i.e., Yar Hussain, Baboo Dehari (District Mardan) and Khitab Koroona (District Charsadda) to study the performance of 11 wheat genotypes (Local, SR-24, SR-25, SR-7, SR-22, SR-4, SR-20, SR-19, SR-2, SR-23 and SR-40) for their salinity tolerance. These locations had different salinity profile i.e., Yar Hussain (EC. 3-3.5 dSm-1), Baboo Dehari (EC. 4-4.5 dSm-1) and Khitab Koroona (EC. 5-5.30 dSm-1). Different locations and wheat genotypes had significantly (p
