Protoplasts may also be used for plant breeding, using a technique called protoplast fusion.

Hybrids may also be produced by a technique called protoplast fusion.

During and subsequent to digestion of the cell wall, the protoplast becomes very sensitive to osmotic stress.

This means cell wall digestion and protoplast storage must be done in an isotonic solution to prevent rupture of the plasma membrane.

A cell wall composed of cellulose and hemicellulose, pectin and in many cases lignin, is secreted by the protoplast on the outside of the cell membrane.

- Energid: a biological unit consisting of a nucleus and the body of cytoplasm with which it interacts
- Protoplast, from ancient Greek u03C0u03C1u03C9u03C4u03CCu03C0u03BBu03B1u03C3u03C4u03BFu03C2 (pru014Dtu00F3plastos, "first-formed"), initially referred to the first human or, more generally, to the first organized body of a species. In modern biology, it has several definitions:
- A membrane-bound cell from which the outer wall has been partially or completely removed. The term often is applied to plant cells.
- Cellular material, cytoplasm, mitochondria, nucleus, etc., remaining after the cell wall has been removed.
- A plant or bacterial cell that has had its cell wall removed.
- The contents of a plant cell exclusive of the cell wall.
