ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to the genetic manipulation of plants to produce polyhydroxyalkanoate, particularly in the peroxisomes. Methods for producing such polymers in plants and host cells are provided. Such methods find use in producing biodegradable thermoplastics in plants and other organisms. Nucleotide molecules, expression cassettes, and genetically manipulated host cell, plants, plant tissues, and seeds are also provided.
