Protoplasts, isolated from leaf of N. tabacum NR-/SR+ and N. glottnosa were electrofused and divided with a plating efficiency of 30∼35% in AAPI 9M medium. Green callus lines were selected in protoplast-derived colonies on MSNO3 selection medium with 1.2mg/ml streptomycin sulfate on the basis of nitrate reductase proficiency and streptomycin resistance. Four putative hybrid plant lines regenerated from the green callus lines had intermediate morphology between that of parents with respect to floral shape, corolla length and ovate leaf blade. Zymograms of leaf peroxidase and esterase from these putative hybrid plant lines showed isozyme profiles derived from both parents and also, they exhibited additional and lost bands. Cytological analysis of two putative hybrid plant lines gave chromosome counts of 2n=66 in L22 and 2n=54 in L44 which were less than the expected number of N. tabacum(2n=48) and N. glutinosa(2n=24).

Interorder heterokaryons were obtained by polyethylene glycol induced fusion of protoplasts from auxotrophic mutants of Pleurotus ostreatus in agaricales and Ganoderma applanaturm in aphyllophorales. When transferred to MMM plates, all fusion colonies exhibited an extremely growth rate. During three times subcultivation on MCM the growth rate of fusants showed faster little by little. Seventy-five % fusion products of potoplasts showed mixed morphologies between those of P. ostreatus and G. applannatum in the first subcultivation on MCM and MGM. The phenotype of these fusants changed similar those of P. osteatus type after three times subcultivation on MCM. However, phenotype of 25% stable strains did not change on subcultivation. Hyphae of all fusion products did not form true clamp connection. All these types did not produce primordia. A comparrison of interorder somatic hybrids was made using isozyme analysis of esterase, malate dehydrogenase and peroxidase. In most cases the enzyme patterns of G. applanatum were not distinct, however, fusant showed non-parental bands.
