Abstract
The invention relates to the genetic manipulation of plants, particularly to the expression of galactomannan biosynthetic genes in transformed plants. Isolated nucleotide molecules comprising nucleotide sequences encoding mannan synthase and galactosyltransferases and methods for their use are provided. The nucleotide molecules find use in the production of gum in transformed plants.
