Abstract
Wheat has a significant position among all the cereals for its nutritional quality and usage all over the world. With rising world
population, demand of wheat is also increasing. The changing climate endangers the wheat grain yield with abiotic and biotic
factors. One of the sternest factors is shortage of water. The study was planned to collect large quantity of germplasm and
scrutinized it on physio-morphic traits. The experiment was conducted in normal and deficit moisture. Among 200 wheat
genotypes Aas 2011, Chakwal 86, 9787, 9846, 9860, 9864 and Manthar 2003 maintained root-shoot ratio and RWC%. The
genotypes performed consistently in normal and water deficit milieu and can directly be selected for water deficit tolerant and
can also be further investigated in breeding programs.
