Title: Isogamous organisms
Post by: jaumzaum on Oct 2, 2014
I was looking for a type of organism in which the was no differentiation between the gametes, both are 100% identical (of course, there could be mutations, but no allele differentiation in matching-type regions, like the positive + and negative - mathing types in some algaes), and with a sexual reproduction. In isogamous organisms we have a small genetic differentiation between the gametes, as the + and - one I said. Is there an organism like this in nature? Also, is there any isogamous organism in which the gametes are produced in the same organ or region?

Lost me right there. Gametes are produced by both the male and female.
