Abstract

An experiment was conducted in plastic pots in an open place in Salah al-Din/ Samarra during the winter season 2020/2021 on wheat plants Triticum aestivum L. (Sham 6) and barley Hordeum vulgare L. (White Arabic) to measure the expression of the WRKY33 gene in response to the salinity of the irrigation water. Two types of water were used to irrigate the plants: river water and well water. The study was conducted on the leaves in the flowering stage. The results showed that there was a significant increase in the gene expression in the wheat plant when irrigated with well water, compared to irrigation with river water. while there was a significant decrease in the gene expression in the barley plant when irrigated with well water, compared to irrigation with river water.
