Interspecific hybrids between Aspergillus oryzae var oryzae and A. nidulans 514 were obtained by nuclear transfer technique. Several autotrophic mutants isolated from conidiospores of the two strains were mutagenized with ultraviolet and N-methyl-N-nitrosoguanidine. Optimal conditions for formation of intergeneric hybrids were investigated. Frequencies of hybrid formation by nuclear transfer were $3{\times}10^{-5}{\sim}1{\times}10^{-5}$. From observation of genetic stability, conidial size, DNA content, and nuclear stain, it was suggested that their karyptypes are aneuploid. The hybrids showed 1.1~1.4 fold higher xylanase activities than parental strains did. The xylanase of Aspergiilus sp. TAVD514-3 was purified and some of it's enzymatc characteristics were investigated. The enzyme was purified about 85 fold with an overall yield of 17% from the culture medium by ammonium sulfate fractionation, Sephadex G-75 gel permeation chromatography, and CM-sephadex A-50 ion exchange chromatography. The purified enzyme functions optimally at pH 9.0 and 80$^{\circ}C$. The enzymatic activity was increased by the presence of $Mg^{2+}$ and $Mn^2$ ions.

핵전이 기술을 이용하여 Aspergillus nidulans에서의 종내잡종들을 얻어내고 이들의 섬유질 분해효소계 활성 및 핵형분석을 통하여 이 방법에 의한 균주개량의 가능성을 조사하였다. A. nidulans 야생균주와 영양요구성 돌연변이주 FGSC 475로부터 추출한 핵을 FGSC 514의 원형질체에 각각 전이시킨 결과 4.8% 및 10.1%의 잡종형성율을 나타냄으로써, 0.6%의 융합빈도를 보인 원형질체 융합법보다 핵전이법이 잡종형성에 더 효과적임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 형성된 잡종들에서 cellulase및 xylanase system과 mannanase 중 일부분의 효소성분의 활성이 향상된 균주가 분리되어 이 방법에 의한 우수 섬유질분해 균주개발의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었으며, 형성된 잡종의 핵형은 이배체 또는 이수체로 분석되었다.
