Abstract
In order to identify loci controlling seedling morpho-physiologic characteristics in 88 bread wheat cultivars, a greenhouse experiment based on simple alpha lattice was conducted under both normal and 120 mM (12 ds/m) salt stress condition of the Faculty of Agriculture, Urmia University in 2020-2021 cropping season. Chlorophyll a, b and carotenoid content, proline, plant fresh and dry weight, plant height and leaf relative water content (RWC), Na+, K+ and K+/Na+ concentrations were measured. After genotyping by sequencing with Ion Torrent technology and removal of SNPs with more than 20% of missing data and minor allele frequency less than 5%, a total of 5869 SNP markers were identified. Based on association mapping with the mixed linear model (MLM) method, a total of 25 marker-trait associations were detected under normal conditions. The A and D genomes had the highest and lowest number of significant marker-trait associations (MTAs). Among the studied traits under normal conditions, chlorophyll a had the highest number of MTAs on 1A, 3B, 3D, 5B, 7A chromosomes with eight MTAs. A total of 21 MTAs were identified under salt stress conditions which the genome B and D had the highest and lowest number of MTAs, respectively. Five MTAs were identified for plant fresh weight, which were located on chromosomes 4A and 6B. The results of this study provide valuable information about the loci associated with the studied traits, which can be used in marker assisted selection in wheat breeding programs after confirmation in biparental populations and additional experiments.

Abstract
To evaluate the expression pattern of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes catalase, ascorbate peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase under iron deficiency conditions in Fe- efficient (Pishtaz) and -inefficient (Falat) bread wheat cultivars, a CRD (completely randomized design) based factorial experiment was conducted with three replications. The cultivars were grown under iron deficiency (Less than 1.5 mg Fe/kg soil) and compared with normal conditions (10 mg Fe/kg soil). The relative expression levels of the above-mentioned genes were measured using Real-time PCR technique in the leaves and roots of the cultivars at two growth stages: vegetative (one month after germination) and reproductive (30% of heading). The results revealed a remarkable enhancement in calatalse expression in the roots of both cultivars in the vegetatative stage but it was higher in Fe-efficient cultivar than -inefficient one. The expression of this gene was decreased in leaves at the same stage as well as in the roots of both cultivars in the vegetative stage. The expression level of ascorbate peroxidase gene in the reproductive stage in the roots of Fe-inefficient cultivar was higher than that of -efficient one. In the vegetative stage, the expression of this gene increased in the leaves and roots of Fe-efficient cultivar, but it was decresed in Fe-inefficient cultivar. The relative expression level of polyphenol oxidase gene in the vegetative stage under iron deficiency conditions in the leaf increased almost three times, compared to the roots, while the expression of this gene decreased in the reproductive stage in both leaves and roots. By increasing the expression of both catalase and ascorbate peroxidase genes in the roots of both cultivars in the reproductive stage under iron deficiency conditions, it seems that bread wheat cultivars might reduce the deletrious effects of stress and maintain yield through transferring much iron to the seeds in the seed filling stage. The findings of the present study may increase our understanding of the important role of genes encoding antioxidant enzymes in Fe deficiency stress conditions.
