The definition is a little contradictory. The first bullet point states: A protoplast is a plant, bacterial or fungal cell that had its cell wall completely or partially removed using either mechanical or enzymatic means.
The very next one gives a definition where the cell wall must be completely removed and that a spheroplast is a cell which has had its cell wall partially removed.

I removed the statement that protoplasts are used "for studying temporal gene expression", since it seems too vague to be useful without elaboration. –Adrian J. Hunter 01:19, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
