✦ Synopsis

Cellulose utilising hybrids between Cellulomonas spp. and Bacillus subtilis were isolated after PEG mediated proto-Fastsion. These stable hybrids selected using genomic markers harbouredDNA from both the parents. Higher CIvICase and(3-glucosidase activities were detected extracellularly in case of one of the hybrids unlike only CMCase in case . of Cellulomonas.
