Transfer of isolated nuclei into protoplasts of Aspergillus nidulans
1Department of Microbiology, Attila József University, Szeged, Hungary.
Abstract:
Nuclei were isolated from protoplasts of a haploid auxotrophic Aspergillus nidulans strain. Transformation of protoplasts prepared from a complementary haploid auxotrophic strain with these purified nuclei resulted in both heterokaryotic and diploid colonies. The nutritionally-complementing colonies appeared at a frequency of 5 x 10(-7) to 10(-8).
