Answer
A model organism such as a pea plant or fruit fly is raised and subjected to experimental studies because they replicate the genetic principles of other organisms. Neurospora is haploid fungus that has no dominant or recessive alleles because all of its alleles are homozygous and expressed phenotypically. Neurospora is easily cultured and therefore convenient to conduct large scale studies on.
