✦ Synopsis

A method to estimate thermophilic fungal biomass in compost was developed. The method involves homogenization of the compost, addition of water and nutrients, preincubation, antibiotics addition and measurement of CO, production at 45 "C. The method proved to be reasonably reproducible. Samples could be stored at 4 "C for more than a month without significant loss of activity.

We have developed an efficient PCR-based system that uses RAPD markers for the certification of F1 hybrids of canola. These markers were selected by screening five parental lines used in three crosses X, Y and Z with 131, 131 and 322 primers respectively. Stable DNA fragments that were homozygous an
