Dynamic effects of irrigation on photosynthesis and yield-related physiological characteristics in different glutinous wheat cultivars.

ABSTRACT: Water scarcity critically constrains wheat production in North China, yet the irrigation responsiveness of novel glutinous wheat cultivars remains poorly quantified. This study systematically investigated the physiological mechanisms of common wheat Shimai 19 (SM19), partially glutinous SM19-P (Wx-B1 null), and fully glutinous SM19-N (triple null) under three irrigation regimes: rain-fed (W0), water-saving (W1: jointing irrigation), and conventional irrigation (W2: overwintering + jointing + flowering irrigations). Dynamic monitoring of flag leaf photosynthesis (Soil Plant Analysis Development (SPAD), stomatal conductance (Gs), transpiration rate (Tr), net photosynthetic rate (Pn)), antioxidant enzyme systems (superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), catalase (CAT) net photosynthetic
