To obtain hybrids producing antagonisms and plant growth promoting effects by intergeneric nuclei transfer, the nuclei were isolated from the protoplasts of Trichoderma harzianum T95 and treated with colchicine. The nuclei were tranferred into protoplast of multi-auxotrophic Gliocladium virens G88 which cannot grow in minimal medium. The nuclei tranferred into protoplasts of G. virens G88 were selected on the regeneration minimal medium containing chloroneb as a haploid inducer. Low transfer frequency of 0.08% was observed with three chemical treatment, however no segregants were found in the intergeneric nuclei transfer. The various types of hybrids with different morphology were detected when different concentration of chloroneb were treated. These morphologies were classified as parental, recombinant and petite type.

Toxicity tests were performed to evaluate the feasibility of application with prediction models to 10 mixture chemicals (chloroneb, butylbenzylphthalate, pendimethaline, di-n-butylphthalate, di-iso-butylphthalate, diazinon, isofenphos, 2-chlorophenol, 2,4,6-trichlorophenol and p-octylphenol) detected in effluents from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Ten chemicals were selected in the basis of their toxicities to Daphnia magna and the concentrations in effluents measured by GC/MS. Three models including concentration addition (CA), independent action (IA) and effect summation (ES) were employed for the comparison of the predicted and the observed mortality of D. magna exposed to 10 mixture chemicals for 48 hours. With a comparative study it was ineffective to predict the mortality through the CA and the ES prediction model, while the IA prediction model showed a high correlation($r^2\;=\;0.85$). Moreover, the ES model over-estimated the toxicity observed by bioassay experiments about five-fold. Consequently, IA model is a reasonable tool to predict the mixture toxicity of the discharging water from WWTPs.

Nuclei were isolated from the protoplasts of Trichoderma harzianum T95 and treated with colchicine, a polyploid inducer. The nuclei were transferred into the protoplast of multi-auxotrophic Gliocladium virens G88 which cannot grow in minimal medium. The protoplast of G. virens G88 carrying the transferred nuclei were regenerated in a regeneration minimal medium containing $17{\mu}g/ml$ of chloroneb as a haploid inducer. Six intergeneric hybrids between G. virens and T. harzianum were isolated from the regeneration minimal medium. The hybrids could be classified into three types according to morphology, those with an isozyme pattern, those with an protein band and those with an randomly amplified polymorphic DNA(RAPD) pattern produced by random primers and repetitive sequences. The first group was identified to be a haploid recombinant, the second group a heterokaryon, and the third appeared to be petite.
