The experiment was carried out in the laboratory of the General Company for Grain Trade, Al-Diwaniyah Governorate, variety Ibaa 99 during the season of 2021, to find out the effect of some abiotic environmental stresses (heat and humidity) on some physical characteristics of the wheat seeds( Triticum aestivum L.) The experiment was conducted according to a randomized complete block design (RCBD) for experiments, Factorial with three replications, the first factor included three levels of temperature (-7, 25 and 35°C) and the second factor three levels of humidity (12, 14 and 16%). The temperature level of 35 °C was superior to the specific weight and gave the highest specific weight of 77.02 kg/Hectoliter and the weight of 1000 grains 34.49 g, the moisture level of 16% exceeded the specific weight and gave the highest specific weight of 77.80 kg/Hectoliter, and the weight of 1000 grains 34.48 g.
