Abstract
Meiotic drive of B-chromosomes in Myrmeleotettix maculatus females decreased slightly during the course of egg-laying but was not detectably different under different temperature regimes. A proportion of males, however, showed substantially reduced transmission of the B chromosome when maintained at lower temperatures. This could explain some of the geographic variation in B chromosome frequency that has been observed.
