Abstract

A simple and easy method was developed to monitor fungus gnats, Bradysia agrestis on sweet pepper in greenhouses. The larvae of B. agrestis were more attracted to potato discs than other sweetpotato, carrot, garlic, radish, and onion discs. The average numbers of B. agrestis found in each disc were 9.7 (potato), 6.0 (sweetpotato), 4.3 (carrot), 0.7 (garlic), 3.8 (radish), and 1.0 (onion). The number of larvae also increased by the size of disc surface and resulted in 2.1 larvae in 10${\times}$10${\times}$10 mm, 3.4 larvae in 20${\times}$20${\times}$10mm, and 3.9 larvae in 30${\times}$30${\times}$10 mm. The adults were more attracted to a yellow sticky trap (50.0 numbers) than a blue (18.0 numbers) or a white (3.7 numbers) traps. The optimal height for installing sticky trap in the greenhouse was determined as less than 50 cm from the rockwool bed based on the adults caught in the traps; 50.0 in less than 50 cm, 4.3 in 50-100 cm, and 2.0 in more than 100 cm height.

착색단고추에 발생하여 피해를 주고 있는 작은뿌리파리의 포장 발생 실태를 간단하고 손쉽게 간이예찰 할 수 있는 방법에 대하여 시험을 수행하였다. 작은뿌리파리의 유충은 감자, 고구마, 당근, 마늘, 무, 양파 절편중에서 감자 절편에 많은 수가 유인되었으며, 유인수는 각각 9.7마리, 6.0마리, 4.3마리, 0.7마리, 3.8마리, 1.0마리였다. 유충 유인수는 10${\times}$10${\times}$10mm에서 2.1마리, 20${\times}$20${\times}$10mm에서 3.4마리, 30${\times}$30${\times}$10mm에서 3.9마리로 절편의 표면적이 클수록 유인수가 많았다. 성충은 노란색 끈끈이트랩에 50.0마리가 유인되어 흰색에서 18.0마리, 파란색에서 3.7마리보다 유인수가 많았다. 끈끈이트랩 설치 높이별 성충 유인수는 암면배지로부터 50cm이하에서 50.0마리,50-100cm에서 4.3마리, 100cm이상에서 2.0마리가 유인되어 50cm이하에 설치하는 것이 효과적이었다.
