Abstract: The protoplast fusion between Bifidobacterium breve and Saccharomyces cerevisiae was studied by using protoplast fusion technique, a pair of hybrid fusants BSF1 and BSF2, comparatively stable and having biological properties of both Bifidobacterium breve and Saccharomyces cerevisiae, were obtained successfully after forming, regeneration and fusion of protoplast of two parents was finished .The oxygen-resistance of Bifidobacterium was improved.

Key words: protoplast fusion, Bifidobacterium breve, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, oxygen-resistance ..
