The characteristic difference in the physiological capacity of Races A and B ofMayetiola destructor(Say) (Diptera: Cecidomyiidae) to stunt ‘Monon’ wheat plants and to survive on the cultivar was used to obtain genetic evidence that paternally derived chromosomes are eliminated during spermatogenesis. Parents bred true; that is, matings of Race A produced progenies that were unable to live on or stunt Monon wheat plants, and matings of Race B produced progenies that could, but progenies of reciprocal matings between the races showed that the inability of Race A to stunt Monon wheat plants was dominant to the ability of Race B; also, the ability of the F1hybrid progeny to survive on Monon wheat plants was intermediate between the inability of Race A and the ability of Race B. The phenotypes of the 2nd generation and the backcross progeny differed according to the heterozygosity and direction of cross of the F1parents. Heterozygous females produced 2 kinds of gametes; homozygous females, homozygous males, and heterozygous males produced only 1 kind. The elimination of the paternally derived chromosomes was therefore demonstrated by the stunting of the wheat by progenies of the different matings and by larval survival and distribution of larval size.
