Abstract

The entomopathogenic bacterium, $Xenorhabdus$ sp., was isolated from an entomopathogenic nematode, $Steinernema$ $monticolum$. When these bacteria were injected into the hemocoel of the diamondback moth, $Plutella$ $xylostella$, they caused significant mortality. However, the bacterium was not pathogenic when it was administered orally. This study showed that $Xenorhabdus$ sp. significantly enhanced oral pathogenicity of $Bacillus$ $thuringiensis$ (Bt) against the last instar larvae of $P.$ $xylostella$. Different ratios of culture broth of $Xenorhabdus$ sp. and Bt showed significantly different pathogenicities against $P.$ $xylostella$. In field tests, the optimal bacterial mixture significantly enhanced control efficacy against $P.$ $xylostella$ compared to Bt treatment alone. These results demonstrated that $Xenorhabdus$ sp. culture broth can be developed as a potent biopesticide by enhancing the insecticidal efficacy of Bt.

곤충병원세균인 제노랍두스($Xenorhabdus$ sp.)는 곤충병원선충인 $Steinernema$ $monticolum$으로부터 분리되었다. 이 세균 배양액을 배추좀나방($Plutella$ $xylostella$) 혈강에 주입할 경우 높은 병원력을 나타내지만, 섭식 처리할 경우 낮은 병원력을 보였다. 본 연구는 이 제노랍두스 세균 배양액이 $Bacillus$ $thuringiensis$(비티)와 혼합하여 배추좀나방 종령충에 처리할 경우 비티의 병원력을 뚜렷하게 증가시키는 것을 보였다. 또한 제노랍두스 배양액과 비티의 혼합비율을 달리할 경우 병원력이 크게 차이를 보였다. 최적의 두 세균 혼합비율을 이용하여 야외에 발생한 배추좀나방에 처리하였으며, 비티 단독처리에 비해 뚜렷이 상승된 방제 효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 제노랍두스 배양액을 비티와 혼합하여 새로운 미생물 살충제로 개발할 수 있는 가능성을 제시했다.
