Abstract: "In order to study the integrated responses of wheat to saline water irrigation,a trial was conducted with five wheat varieties irrigated with saline water of 1,2,4,6,8 g/L five mineral contents,during 2007-2008 and 2008-2009,in the research station of Dry-land Farming Institute.The results showed that the plant height,biomass,leaf area and per ha spikes reduced with the increase of mineral content;while the leaf weight of unit area,chlorophyll content and 1 000-kernel weight increased.This result indicated that modifying the plant gesture by certain saline water was probable.The seriously decreased spike numbers was an important reason for saline water causing yield loss.Using varieties with certain plant height and high spike numbers and increasing the seeding rate when sowing were effective measures for improving the wheat yield irrigated with saline water.
