dc.description.abstractThe present work aims to document the phenological diversity of flowering and fruiting in guggul with reference to climate. Commiphora wightii flowering and fruiting patterns were monitored in Kaylana (Jodhpur, Rajasthan) over a period of 24 months. Observations on flowering and fruiting phenology were carried out monthly, from March 2010 to May 2012. Flowering and fruiting patterns were studied qualitatively as well as quantitatively. Flowering and fruiting occurs throughout the year but maximum observed in April and May, respectively and second time in November. Strong positive correlation between flowering/fruiting and monthly mean daily maximum temperature (Flowering r = 0.762, P˂ 0.01, Fruiting r = 0.714, P˂ 0.01) indicate that flowering and fruiting are enhanced by higher temperatures. Fruiting was negatively correlated with mean monthly relative humidity at 6 O’ clock in the morning (r = -0.59, P ˂ 0.05). Regression analysis also revealed positive linear relationship between mean monthly maximum temperature and flowering percentage (R2 = 0.58118, F1/10 = 13.87652, P ˂ 0.01). Similarly, a positive but quadratic relationship (R2 = 0.704, Fx/y = 10.71643, P ˂ 0.01) was also observed between flowering and mean monthly minimum temperature.en_US
