Abstract:
The field experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of Chaudhary Charan Singh Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar during the Rabi season of 2015-16. The experiment consisted of twenty treatment combinations comprising four wheat varieties i.e. KRL 210, WH 1105, HD 3086 and DBW 88 as main plots of treatment and five nitrogen levels i.e. 0, 50, 100, 150 and 200 kg N ha-1 as sub-plots treatment, were tested in a split-plot design with three replications. The growth parameters i.e. dry matter accumulation, number of tillers meter-1 row length and leaf area index, grain yield and straw yield were recorded significantly higher in the wheat variety WH 1105. However, it was at par with varieties HD 3086 and DBW 88 for dry matter accumulation and leaf area index. Whereas, plant height was recorded significantly higher in the wheat variety HD 3086. The incremental N levels significantly increased for plant height, dry matter accumulation, number of tillers meter-1 row length, LAI grain yield, straw yield and harvest index up to 150 kg N ha-1 but was at par with 200 kg N ha-1.

Highlights
- The growth of wheat crop under saline irrigation conditions could be improved by the judicious use of inorganic fertilizer.
- So, this study was conducted to evaluate the influence of various nitrogen levels on wheat varieties under saline irrigation water.
