Abstract: This research chose seven tested strains from regional trial of drought land in Shandong province in 2006 year as test materials to study the Characteristics of drought resistance using infiltration media of 20% PEG-6000 solution to simulate drought environment. Drought index of them were got too by field test at the same time. The results showed that the two conclusions of drought –resisting sequence got by the methods of coleoptile length in germination period and drought index in field test were basically consistent. The conclusions mentioned above pointed that the method of coleoptile length was effective to identificate drought-resisting wheat germplasm in early stages.
