Poria cocos is an importantant medical macrofungus,the sclerotium of Poria cocos has specific value as the drug material. There are few papers about its breeding and spawn rejuvenation. In this project, the protoplasts of cultivated strain T and wild strain L were prepared and treated separately by ultraviolet and heating, then fused with the PEG6000. The tural fusants were selected and identified by the affinity and ISSR analysis. 71 incompatibility strains between parents and reg regenerations were obtained from 118 regenerations by the affinity analysis. Five incompatibility strains were amplified with different primers, the results were showed that they had specific bands of both parents in the profile amplified with 3 primers, which proved these 5 strains were fusants by means of molecular biology marker. On the other hand, 25 strain were selected from 168 protoplast regenerations of cultivated strain T for cultivation experiment. The fresh sclerotium weight of these protoplast regenerations were better than the original strain.significantil 3 strains (T-1, T-4, T-7) increased respectively 118%, 73% and 73% than original strain. This method could be the effective in the rejuvenation Poria cocos.

S. diastaticus hydrolysised $\alpha$-1.4 linkage of the starch and was known fermenting yeast strain, but poorly hydrolized $\alpha$-1.6 linkage of the starch. To improve the starch fermentation ability of yeast, we tried that protoplast fusion between S. diastaticus and C. tropicalis and finally two starins of fusant (FPDC42, FPDC43) were obtained. C. tropicalis well hydrolysis both $\alpha$-1.4 and $\alpha$-1.6 linkanges in the starch. The protoplast of parental auxotrophic cells were fused in the presence of 10mM CaCl$_2$ and 35% of polyethylene glycol (M. W. 4,000). The fusion frequency was 10$^{-5}$ to 10$^{-6}$. Properties of the fusants(genetic stability, assimilation of carbon sources, random spore formation, copper resistance, NaCl tolerance, DNA content, cell size and growth rate) were investigated.

Cellulose utilising hybrids between Cellulomonas fimi and Bacillus pumilus were isolated after PEG mediated protoplast fusion. 33% (w/v) PEG #6, 000 and 50mM $Ca^{++}$were optimum concentration. The intergeneric fusion frequency was 3.2$\times$10$^{-7}$ xtracellular CMCase and $\beta$-glucosidase activities were detected from one hydrid unlike only CMCase was detected from Cellulomonas fimi.

Inter-specific hybridization between Pleurotus pulmonarius and P. florida was attempted through PEG-induced protoplast fusion to select a fusant. The protocol for protoplast release, regeneration and fusion in these two Pleurotus species was standardized using the variables controlling the process. The mixture of mycolytic enzymes, i.e. commercial cellulase, crude chitinase and pectinase, KCl (0.6 M) as osmotic stabilizer, pH 6 of the phosphate buffer and an incubation time of 3 hours resulted in the maximum release of protoplasts from 3-day-old mycelia of P. florida ($5.3{\sim}5.75{\times}10^{7}$ protoplasts/g) and P. pulmonarius ($5.6{\sim}6{\times}10^{7}$ protoplasts/g). The isolated protoplasts of P. florida regenerated mycelium with 3.3% regeneration efficiency while P. pulmonarius showed 4.1% efficiency of regeneration. Polyethyleneglycol (PEG)-induced fusion of protoplasts of these two species resulted in 0.28% fusion frequency. The fusant produced fruiting bodies on paddy straw but required a lower temperature of crop running ($24{\pm}2^{\circ}C$) than its parents which could fruit at $28{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. The stable fusant strain was selected by testing for the selected biochemical markers i.e. Carbendazim tolerance and utilization of the lignin degradation product, vanillin.

This study mainly designed to high quality of mirin production by using protopast fusion. In order to enhance the acid carboxypeptidase (ACPase) activity by the method of protoplast fusion. In order to enhance the acid carboxypeptidase (ACPase) activity by the method of protopalst fusion, the mutants, Aspergillus oryzae 9-12 and Aspergillus shirosamii IFO 6082-60 were selected by mutation among various mutants. Protoplast of Aspergillus oryzae 9-12 and Aspergillus shirousamii IFO 6082-60 were formed effectively by incubation of the mixtures of chitinase (10mg/ml), cellulase (10mg/ml) and zymolase 20T (5mg/ml). For protopalst fusion, the mixture of two mutant were fused to effective under the optimum conditions by solutions containing 30% PEG 6,000, 0.01M $CaCl_2\;2H_2O$, 0.6M KCl and 0.05M glycine. Fusion frequency was 0.71% and fusant, F-50 appeared ACPase activity of 20,800 unit/g which has 1.5 times higher than that of each mutants.

The availability of Phaffia rhodozyma as an astaxanthin sources in the aquaculture industry is limited because of the low carotenoid content of natural isolate. In this study, we have used the protoplast fusion technique to construct cell hybrids with an increased content of astaxanthin from P. rhodozyma. Cell hybrids (F307 and F406) obtained were very stable and produced considerably more astaxanthin (> 1 mg/g yeast) than the wild parent. Karyogamy was confirmed by the isolation of recombinants after mitotic segregation of parental auxotrophic genetic markers, the increased amount of chromosomal DNA/cell and the presence of single nucleus/cell.

In this study, we surveyed the influence of IOA (iodoacetamide) and media upon protoplast fusion for the efficient production of the somatic hybrid among S. sisymbriifolium and other Solanum species (S. intergrifolium and S. toxicarium). Regardless of a breed, as the IOA concentration increases, the cell division tends to decrease. As the influence of the media on the colony formation, we could get 5 colonies from the fusion of S. sisymbriifolium and IOA-treated S. integrifolium protoplast, but none was observed in other fusions. As a result of analyzing their IDH isozyme, we found a somatic hybrid in 2 objects.

In order to evaluate the applicability of enzyme electrophoresis for the identification of intra/interspecific hybride obtained by the protoplast fusion in Trichoderma, soluble proteins, intracellular soluble enzymes and extracellular $\beta$-glucosidase were analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophorsis. As the results, patterns of soluble protein, and isozyme patterns of peroxidase, malate dehydrogenase, and $\beta$-glucosidase in hydrids were defferent from those in parental and wild type strains. Therefore, it was established that the analysis of protein pattern by electrophoresis could be applied to isolate and identify the hybrids from the protoplast fusion.

Cell fusion between complementary mutants isolated from astaxanthin-producing yeast, Phaffia rhodozyma, was carried out to obtain astaxanthin-overproducing strains by protoplast fusion technique. The frequency of protoplast fusion was ranged from 2.3$\times$10-5 to 6.0$\times$10-5, and nuclear fusion in the cells of hybrids was demonstrated by several techniques such as isolation of recombinants after mitotic segregation of parental genetic markers, estimation of DNA content, direct observation of nuclei with nuclear staining, and comparison of survival rate to UV exposure. One of several hybrids, Fl, showed approximately 3-fold increase in astaxanthin content when compared with wild parent.

Intraspecific and interspecific protoplast fusions in/between C. thermocellum and C. thermohydrosulfuricum were studied. Protoplast fusions were well induced in 30-40% PEG solution, however, their fusion frequencies were low level of 1.2*10$^{-7}$ for intraspecific fusion of C. thermocellum, $6.7*10^{-7}$ for C. thermohydrosulfuricum, and 4.2*10$^{-7}$ for interspecific fusion between above two Clostridia, respectively. Most fusants were unstable and segregated after 3 subcultures. Relatively stable intraspecific C. thermocellum fusant FTT17, intraspecific C. thermohydrosulfurecum fusant FSS22 and interspecific fusant FTS3, which were stable after several subcultures, were selected and properties of fusants were further investigated, Phenotypes of the fusants were similar with wild types mostly in cellular morphology, carbon source assimilation and enzyme activities. However they were differed in assimilation of pyruvic acid and sorbitol as carbon source. The DNA contents of fusants were slightly increased compared with wild types. Ethanol production by intraspecific and/or interspecific fusants was not increased, however, acetic acid production as byproduct was decreased or not detected, which indicates that industrial thermophilic anaerobes can be improved by means of protoplast fusion of two strains.
