Thirty heterokaryons, formed by protoplast fusion of Aspergillus nidulans and Aspergillus tubingensis, were selected on the basis of their ability to grow on 2-deoxyglucose (0.2 %, w/v) and intermediate spore color. These heterokaryons were studied for cellulase production using shake flask and solid substrate cultures at 40 °C. Fusants 51 and 28 exhibited appreciably higher levels of endoglucanase, cellobiohydrolase, β-glucosidase, and FPase activities when compared with parental strains. Employing proteomic-based approaches, the differential expression of proteins in secretome of fusants and parental strains were analyzed using two-dimensional electrophoresis. The expression of some of the proteins in the fusants was found to be up/downregulated. The upregulated proteins in the fusant 51 were identified by liquid chromatography–mass spectroscopy as endoxylanase, endochitinase, β-glucosidase, as well as hypothetical proteins. The cellulases produced by fusants 28 and 51 showed improved saccharification of alkali treated rice straw when compared with the parental strains.
