Groodies are useful (but fictional) haploid organisms that are pure genetic tools. A wild-type groody has a fat body, a long tail, and flagella. Mutant lines are known that have thin bodies, or are tailless, or do not have flagella. Groodies can mate with each other (although they are so shy that we do not know how) and produce recombinants.
