Plants with greater drought tolerance will increase crop production in many areas of the world. The purpose of this study was to examine the physiological responses of guar, a drought tolerant plant, under water stress. The dry treatment received only one irrigation and yielded respectably. This treatment maintained turgor and metabolic functions throughout the study by decreasing transpiration rate and increasing diffusive resistance.
