Abstract
For study of the effect of silicon and titanium nanoparticles on yield and yield components of durum wheat, a factorial experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design at Moghan Faculty of Agriculture and Natural Resources in the 2016-17 crop seasons. In this sdudy, 18 advanced durum wheat genotypes, introduced from the International Center for Agricultural Research in Arid Areas (ICARDA), as the first factor and foliaring nanoparticles at three levels of titanium, silicon and control as the second factor were studied. The length of each experimental plot is 3 meters and the distance between the rows is 20 cm and the planting density is 400 plants per square meter. Nanoparticle foliar spraying was carried out at three stage includs late vegetative, Early to shoot and early spike stages. After physiological maturity, 10 plants per plot were selected randomly and their performance and other related traits were recorded. Analysis of variance showed that there was a significant difference between genotypes for all studied traits. The effect of spraying with silicon and titanium nanoparticles was also significant on most traits such as plant length, peduncle length, spike length, number and weight of grain per spike, straw weight and grain yield per plant. Also, the results showed that the genotypes showed different responses to treatments of foliar spraying application. G2, G3 and G13 genotypes had the highest grain weight per plant. Overall, nano-titanium application showed the highest yield per plant compared to control and nano-silicon. However, no significant difference was observed between spraying with nano-silicone and control in grain yield.
