Gum or GUM may refer to:
Gum is a sap or other resinous material associated with certain species of the plant kingdom . This material is often polysaccharide -based and most frequently is associated with woody plants , particularly under the bark or as a seed coating. The polysaccharide material is typically of high molecular weight and most often highly hydrophilic or hydrocolloidal .
Many gums occur as seed coatings for plant species; the adaptive purpose of some of these gummy coatings is to create a time delayed germination of certain flora seeds. An example of such a gummy coating occurs in the case of Western poison oak , a widespread shrub in western North America .
