This book provides in-depth information on clusterbean, its
cultivation, genetic improvement, plant protection measures,
management of abiotic stresses, molecular aspects etc. It is
divided into seven chapters including an introduction to the crop,
prospects, constraints, genetic improvement, variability,
application of clusterbean gum and its byproducts, cultivation,
plant protection, physiological and abiotic stress aspects, along
with related genetic markers and biotechnological advances.
Clusterbean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba (L.) Taub.), commonly known as
'guar,' is an important leguminous crop grown for seed, green
fodder, vegetable and green manuring in arid and semi-arid regions
and has a special commercial role due to the gum content in its
seeds. India's arid environment provides ideal agro-climatic
conditions for the successful cultivation of clusterbean, as the
plant needs little surface water, long-duration sunshine and low
relative humidity during the cropping season. India accounts for
nearly 82 percent of global clusterbean seed production, making it
an important export product. Based on essential industry and market
data, the book offers a comprehensive overview of this unique crop,
and will be of interest to researchers active in the field of
clusterbean breeding.
