Fluctuations in precipitation and higher evapotranspiration due to rising temperatures are reflected in reduced wheat yields, even in areas with a low historical incidence of drought. In this study, the effects of drought (S) and irrigation (IR) on spelt, einkorn wheat, and two common wheat cultivars were assessed in a field experiment in the years 2018–2021. Water availability was differentiated from the flowering stage using a mobile cover and drip irrigation. Grain yield, canopy temperature, and discrimination of 13C in grain (Δ 13C) were monitored. Drought reduced the average grain yield of common wheat to 5.24 t.ha−1, which was 67.00% of the rain-fed control (C) yield, and 62.09% of the irrigated wheat yield. For spelt and einkorn wheat, the average grain yield from stressed plants was 2.02 t.ha−1; this was 79.97% of the C-variant yield, and 70.82% of the IR-variant yield. Higher stand temperatures were an excellent indicator of water deficit in the stressed crops. The relationship between temperature and final grain yield in the monitored variants was always negative. In all years, discrimination of 13C in grain corresponded to water availability; in its effect on yields, the correlation was always positive. Between 2018 and 2020, spelt and einkorn exhibited lower Δ 13C in comparison with common wheat in all variants, suggesting a greater impact of differentiated water supply. The results of the experiment conclusively demonstrated systematic effects of drought after flowering upon yields and other studied characteristics.
