Abstract (es)

Different levels of supplemental irrigation regimes on four wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes were evaluated, two of which were introduced into Sétif region by ACSAD institution, during the growing season 2013-2014, in order to assess the effect of deficit irrigation pattern on yield traits performance and to determine most suitable genotype for local semi-arid conditions. On the basis of the experimentation data, it was found that supplemental irrigation improved the investigated genotypes yield, which ranged from 220.03 g m^-2 for variety El-wifak in rainfed conditions to 368.3 g m^-2for variety Djanet (ACSAD899) with an increase of about 67%; just by applying two irrigations, the first at the jointing stage and the second at mid-flowering stage. This increase was related to the improvement of most agronomic traits that correlated significantly and positively with grain yield, in response to supplemental irrigation application. These findings indicated that Djanet (ACSAD899) was a genotype successfully introduced under irrigated conditions, while Hidhab (HD1220) with an average grain yield of 298.3 g m^-2, proved to be more stable and well adapted to the locally rainfed conditions.

En esta experimentación, se evaluaron diferentes niveles de riego suplementarios en cuatro genotipos de trigo (Triticum aestivum L.), dos de los cuales fueron introducidos en la región de Sétif por ACSAD, durante la temporada 2013-2014, para evaluar el efecto de los distintos tratamientos de riego y para determinar el genotipo más adecuado para las condiciones semiáridas locales. Según los resultados obtenidos, el riego suplementario mejoró el rendimiento de los genotipos investigados, variando desde 220,03 g m^-2 para la variedad El-wifak en condiciones de secano hasta 368,3 g m^-2para la variedad Djanet (ACSAD899) con un aumento de aproximadamente el 67% con sólo aplicar dos riegos, el primero en la etapa de primer nodo y el segundo en la etapa de floración. Este aumento se relacionó con la mejora de la mayoría de los caracteres agronómicos correlacionados positivamente con el rendimiento de grano, en respuesta a la aplicación de riego suplementario. Djanet (ACSAD899) tuvo buenos resultados bajo condiciones de riego, mientras que Hidhab (HD1220), con un rendimiento promedio de grano de 298,3 g m^-2, demostró ser más estable y bien adaptado a las condiciones locales de secano.
