The efficacy of spinetoram sprayed from an unmanned helicopter to control two insect vectors of pine wood nematodes, Monochamus alternatus and M. saltuarius was assessed. By using a ULV (Ultra Low Volume) sprayer, the mortality rates of phenthoate, bifenthrin, etofenprox, and diflubenzuron, which are registered for use against coleopteran insects, indoxacarb and spinetoram, which are registered for use against lepidopteran insects, were evaluated for efficacy as aerial spraying agents. The ULV test, using 33- and 55-fold dilutions of phenthoate, bifenthrin, indoxacarb, and spinetoram demonstrated a 100% insect mortality rate upon contact and feeding mortality on the third day after treatment, while etofenprox and diflubenzuron exhibited a slightly lower mortality rate than the remaining compounds. Consequently, spinetoram was selected as a candidate pesticide for aerial spraying and its efficacy to control the insect vectors was assessed. The x 33 dilution of spinetoram resulted in a 98.6-100% control efficacy against two insect vectors. However, risk assessment for bees following aerial spraying will be necessary before applying the pesticide to control insect vectors.

A barley virus disease has been severe in central Korea since 1963. To investigate the causal virus, examination of host ranges, transmission by insect vectors and · electron microscopy were conducted. In electron microscopy, particles identical with northern cereal mosaic virus were observed. The size of baciliform particles ranged from 300nm to 370nm in length and 57-60nm in diameter. The virus was transmitted by the small brown planthopper Laodelphax striatellus (Fallen). The latent period in the vector was seven to nineteen days, with 10 days the most prevalent. Barley, corn, wheat, rye, and oats were susceptible to the virus when inoculated by the insect vectors. It was concluded that the disease agent of the barley disease in Korea is northern cereal mosaic virus. This is the first known report of this disease in Korea.

The present study was initiated to find out the insect vector of mulberry dwarf phytoplasma. Among the collected insects from mulberry cultivation region, the sucking insects (Hishimonas sellatus, Bothrogonia japonica and Balclutha punctata) were selected for transmission of mulberry dwarf phytoplasma. Sucking insects, H. sellatus and B. punctata successfully transmitted phytoplasma to healthy seedling mulberry and periwinkle plants by inoculation-feeding. Typical dwarf symptom was observed in mulberry tree, but very slender twigs on stem and formatted small leaves were found on periwinkle plants, which are typical witches' broom symptoms. The phytoplasmas were detected in all samples exception sucking insects B. japonica using phytoplasma universal primer pair R16F2n/R2.

소나무 재선충에 감염되어 고사하는 소나무의 증가는 우리나라 산림에 심각한 위협이 되고 있다. 재선충은 매개 후 고사단계에 이르기까지 진행과 확산이 빨라 감염목이 발견되면 곧바로 임내에서 벌채 및 훈증 처리해야 하며 5${\sim}$6월에 감염되어 10${\sim}$11월에 육안으로 고사를 확인할 수 있다. 재선충에 의해 소나무가 고사되는 과정에서 식생활력도가 크게 감소하며 이러한 현상은 근적외선 영역에서 분광반사의 감소를 수반한다. 따라서 본 연구는 근적외선영역의 분광감소를 이용하여 재선충 피해목의 조기진단이 가능할 수 있다는 것에 착안하여 수행하였다. 근적외선영상 취득 방법으로 휴대가 간편한 근적외선 카메라를 이용하여 재선충 피해지역의 소나무림을 5월부터 11월까지 매월 촬영하였다. 이렇게 수집된 분광반사값으로부터 식생지수(Vegetation Index: VI)의 변화를 분석하였고, VI의 감소율로부터 소나무 재선충 감염목을 조기에 발견할 수 있다는 결과를 도출하였다.

1. 오갈병은 전국에 분포하고 최근지역에 따라 3∼4배씩 매년 발생이 급증한다. 2. 마름무늬 매미충은 1년 3세대 발생하며 1세대가 5월중순-7월초순이고 2세대가 7월중순-8월중순이며 3세대는 8월하순부터 10월초까지였다. 3. 마름무늬 매미충 산란은 가지의 하부에 산란하는 것이 많다. 4. 마름무늬 매미 충 월동란은 4월 24일에 안점기에 달하고 5월 5일부터 부화 시작한다.

This experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of Azukibean seeds gained from virus-infected plant on the growth and yield of the next generation. In conventional cultivation, plants showed high infection rate, whereas plants in isolation cultivation showed normal growth without virus-infection. It was considered that virus-infection of Azukibean(variety Chungjupat) occurred not because of seed infection but because of insects-vector in growing period. And thread-shaped virus particles were observed in diseased leaf showing mosaic through electron microscope.
