Methods And Results: In this study, both agronomic and molecular-based approaches were used to evaluate the response of twenty-eight Tunisian wheat varieties to drought stress.
Introduction: Wheat ( L.) is among the world's most important staple food crops. In the current climate change scenario, a better understanding of wheat response mechanisms to water stress could help to enhance its productivity in arid ecosystems.

Samples from the synthesized PVA-Lg/Pd NC films were irradiated with 5-100 kGy γ doses. The effect of γ doses on the structural, thermal, and optical characteristics of the NC films were studied using different characterization techniques.
