The efficiency of protoplast fusions in haploid strains of P. guilliermondii was dependent on the strain used. In the primary fusion colonies, a large proportion of non‐dividing cells was sometimes observed. While in two strains stable hybrids occurred immediately after fusion, one strain showed a longer‐lasting heterokaryotic state.
