Abstract
The experiment comprised of 7 guar genotypes (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taubert sown in two sets under drought and irrigated conditions. Six characters i.e. Plant Height, Cluster/Plant, Pods/Cluster, Pods/Plant, Pod length, Grains/Pod were studied and analyzed the data by PCA analysis out of which the first three characters accounted for 65.44%, 25.56% and 6.87% of total variation, respectively under irrigated conditions. While in drought condition, the first three characters accounted for 53.18%, 35.83% and 8.27% of total variation, respectively. In cluster analysis, three cluster are made, cluster 1 (3 genotypes) showed near about 80-85% of similarity distance between characters, while cluster 2 (3 genotypes) showed 60-65% of similarity distance between characters and cluster 3 (1 genotype) showed 15% similarity distance with other clusters. While in drought conditions, cluster 1 (4 genotypes) showed near about 70-80% of similarity distance between characters, while cluster 2 (2 genotypes) showed 65% of similarity distance between characters and cluster 3 showed 59% similarity distance with other clusters.
