The study on performance of five representative genotypes for pod formation potential in summer arid situations of 2025 at Agriculture University, Jodhpur has been quite convincing. For instance, the results indicated that the atmospheric temperature lesser than 40°C proved convenient for effective pod formation on guar plants, whereas it showed detrimental effects on pod formation, in case temperature increased from 40°C onwards. However, the optimum temperature for pod formation appears to be identified between 25 to 35°C and higher relative humidity(75-80%). Interestingly, once the pods are formed at optimum temperature (25 to 35°C), the pods will continue to grow and develop well even under sub-optimal temperature conditions exceeding 40°C. It highlighted the influence of guar response on pod formation to the temperature regime. Amongst the genotypes tested, genotype D-4 emerged as a promising genetic resource. It demonstrated stability in the pod formation being up to 90 pods per plant when exposed to optimum temperatures after 60 days of sowing and appreciably it developed almost 40 pods even under sub-optimal temperature. The present study has underlined the temperature sensitivity and critical growth stages of guar when exposed to twin situations of drought and high temperature. Our present study underlines that the genotype D-4 appeared suitable for existing Agro-forestry system.
