Abstract :
In order to investigate the effect of humic acid and different methods of seed priming on yield and yield components of rainfed wheat under supplemental irrigation conditions, a split split plot design in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) design with three replications in Kermanshah province. The irrigation factor consisted: pure raunfed and supplemental irrigation in the main plot; Humeic acid included: non-use and use in the subplot and seed biopriming including: prime with fungus Mycorrhiza, Prime with mixed of PGPR, Prime with Flavobacteriun, Prime with Mycorrhiza+PGPR, and Prime with Mycorrhiza+Flavobacteriun were sub-sub plots. The main effects of supplemental irrigation, humic acid and seed biopriming methods were significant on all traits. The supplementary irrigation treatment had the highest grain yield, biological yield, harvest index (HI), spikelet number per spike, seeds number per spike and wheat plant height, with 3518.139 kg ha-1, 10200.5 kg ha-1, 34.339 %, 12.944, 29.028 and 99.944 cm, respectively. Humeic acid treatment had the highest grain yield, biological yield, harvest index (GI), spikelet number per spike, seeds number per spike and plant height, with 3393.778 kg ha-1, 10136.278 kg ha-1, 33.356 %, 12.444, 27.583 and 639.98 cm, respectively. Between the different seed biopriming treatments, seed co-bioprime with mycorrhizal fungus and mixture of PGPR bacteria (Azotobacter + Azospirillum + Pseudomonas) had the highest grain yield, biological yield, harvest index (HI), spikelet number per spike, seeds number per spike and plant height was allocated with 3887.167 kg ha-1, 10703.25 kg ha-1, 36.167 %, 14.5, 33.0 and 105.5 cm, respectively.
