Abstract excerpt
By using combinations of phenotypically-distinct--but sexually-compatible--mutant strains of C. monoica (zym-1, zym-27, and nit-2) and assaying for zygote genotypes in genetically-mixed mating populations (where gametes of the two parental homothallic strains were present at similar frequencies), we have found that matings occur preferentially between cells of the same genotype. Additional support for an...
