Abstract
A field experiment was carried out at Abu Ghraib
Research Station- Agricultural Research Department
for the growing seasons 2014-2015 and 2015-2016 in
order to evaluate the performance of eight introduced
bread wheat genotypes from the University of Perth/
Australia Research Station and compare them with the
two local varieties IPA 99 and Abu Ghraib 3. The
experiment was implemented in randomized completely
block design with (R.C.B.D.) with three replicates.
The results indicate statistically differences between
genotypes for all studied characters. The introduced
genotype M7 was superior to other genotypes for
kernals.m2 (492 kernals.m2), 1000 seed weight (35.50
gm), grain yield (6.62 ton.ha-1) and harvest index
(41.68%), while the genotype M2 was superior in grain
per spike (62 grain.spike-1) and genotype M4 in total
dry weight yield (17.78 ton.ha-1).
