Germination characteristics of winter wheat cultivars under drought stress

The data set provided the germination and vigor indices, root length and seedling length of 128 wheat cultivars under normal conditions (CK, 65% of sand saturated water content) and drought stress (DT, 20% of sand saturated water content). TDP1 and PIMT gene expression data of seed embryos of 6 wheat cultivars at 12, 24 and 48 h after seed germination. Physiological indices measurement data including the antioxidant enzymes activity, the material metabolism enzymes activity and its metabolites of whole wheat seeds of 6 wheat cultivars at 6, 12, 24, 36, 48 and 72 h after seed germination.
