This study was conducted to determine the effect of pupal development and adult longevity of Spodoptera litura larvae reared on leaves of different leguminos plants of 11 varieties or cultivars. Pupal duration varied from 8.7 to 9.5 days depending upon different diets and duration of female pupa (8.3~9.1 days) was about 1 day shorter than that of male's (9.4~10.1 days). Prepupal an postpupal duration were 1.7 to 2.0 days and 6.7 to 7.7 days, respectively. Pupal weight ranged from 0.23g to 0.43g for female and 0.24g to 0.35 g for male. Percent change of pupal weight was lowest (11%) on geomjeongkong-1 and highest (16%) on bukwangkong. Adult longevity was in ranging from 7.8 days on dongbu to 11.2 days on bukwangkong and tended to become slightly longer in female than tin male. Significant relationships were recognized between moisture content of feeding leaf, the pupal duration and weight and adult longevity.

Insecticidal activities of methanol extracts of the different parts of Prunus mume were investigated against the larvae of Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (C. medinalis) by topical application. The mortalities of the larvae of C. medinalis were 34% at the concentration of 4,000 ppm, 36% of 8,000 ppm, 40% of 16,000 ppm and 58% of 32,000 ppm of the extracts from the fruits, and 38% of 4,000 ppm, 45% of 8,000 ppm, 58% of 16,000 ppm and 75% of 32,000 ppm from the stem + flower of Prunus mume (P. mume), respectively. The rates of pupation of C. medinalis treated with either fruit or stem+flower were gradually low according to the concentration of extracts increased. The weight of pupae of C. medinalis has no significantly different in between the control and the treated groups of the extracts from both of fruit and stem+flower. However, the differences of the pupal weight and the rate of pupation of C. medinalis treated with the extracts from the stem+flower and fruit of P. mume were significant as the level of 56% ($R^2$=0.56363, P=0.4364). Both of stem+flower and fruit extracts of P. mume showed good effects of anti-feeding against C. medinalis. The extracts of the stem+flower of P. mume could be advocated for developing as birational agent for the control of C. medinalis.

This experiment was carried out to develop an artificial diet and a mass rearing system, which is essentIal in the pheromone research for Ostrmia furnacalis. Component deletion and addit.ion methods were applied t.o define the nut.ritional Importance of some components, especially yeast, Wesson's salt mixture and vitamin complex. Secondly we have developed a proper rearmg syst.em for O. furnacalis. and also tried to find out the factors affecting rapid sclerotization (dark-canning) of pupae. AddItion of yeast raIsed the pupal weight. and pupation rate. However Wesson's salt mixture got the female pupae lighter. Vitamin complex as a substitue for yeast showed a good survivahty in an early larval stage buL pupal weight was lower than that of the individuals reared on the yeast dIet. Also corrugated cardboard was found to be very good for pupation. And the rate of dark~tannmg in pupae was higher as the period of larval development was shorter.

In order to investigate the impact of recycling agricultural wastes as feed for mealworm (Tenebrio molitor), we evaluated the replacing effect by the different level of tangerine shell, Chinese cabbage, king oyster mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) and Enoki mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) substrates on wheat bran feed. Larval survival rate, larval weight, developmental period of larva, pupation rate and pupal weight were evaluated. In tangerine shell and Chinese cabbage replacement group, no replacing effects found. In all groups replacing by spent King oyster mushroom (Pleurotus eryngii) substrate, survival rate of larva was similar to that of control group but larvae weighed less than control group significantly. Developmental period of larva increases in the group of King oyster mushroom substrate replacement. Larval and pupal weight in Enoki mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) substrate by the level of 40 and 50%, replacement effect showed best results in successive breeding considering pupation rate. It is concluded that replacing 40 and 50% of Enoki mushroom (Flammulina velutipes) substrate is appropriate to substituted diet of Tenebrio molitor larvae.

In order to eradicate harmful insect by use of sterile male techniques, it is necessary to disperse about 10 times as many male insect as in wild condition. However, it is so difficult to discriminate male insect in pupal stage that usually the population are likely to be contaminated by female insect when that are released in field. The present study was conducted to establish a useful method capable of differenciating the male pupae of Stomawys calcitsans by means of measuring the pupal weight and length. The results were summarized as follows; 1. Male pupa was lighter and shorter than female and high correlation existed between length and width of pupa. 2. There was significant relationship between the length of pupa and width of adult 3. When the pupal sex of stable ay was identified by median of mean length and mean weight of the pupae, the Ratio of female to male was 1 : 1. 4 and 1 : 2. 2, respectively. Therefore, median of pupal weight seemed to be applicable for obtaining more number of male pupae.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of temperatures, 24"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and 32"C,and food sources on pupal development, adult longevity and oviposition of tobacco cutworm, Spodopteralitura Fabricius. Percent pupation of S. litura was became higher at higher temperature from 23% to 88%.And its percent pupation was highest on soybean leaf (SL), followed by perilla leaf (PL), sweet potato leaf(SPL) and artificial diet (AD). Pupal weight ranged from 0.28g on SPL to 0.40 g on PL and was tended toheavier with decreasing temperature. The mean pupal duration was 14, 10 and 7 days at 24"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and32"C, respectively. Percent emergence was in range of 21% to 89% with higher percent emergence as thetemperature increased and both 28$^{\circ}$C and 24$^{\circ}$C was highest on SL, followed by PL, SPL and AD, but at24$^{\circ}$C the order was SPL, PL, SL and then AD. Preoviposition duration was 3.2 days at 24"C, 2.8 days at28$^{\circ}$C and 2.5 days at 32$^{\circ}$C. Adult longevity became shorter as the temperature increased from 6.4 to 3.9days. Male longevity was longer than that of female. Adults lived longest when they were reared on PL,followed by SL, SPL and AD. Total number of eggs laid per female varied from 803 to 1,441 regardlessof the treatments, but those were significantly more on natural foods than on AD. Number of eggs per eggmass was 97.4 at 24$^{\circ}$C 155.8 at 28$^{\circ}$C and 104.7 at 32$^{\circ}$C. Number of egg mass was 12.0, 6.7 and 11.3 at24"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and 32"C, respectively.4"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and 32"C, respectively.

Edible insects have recently been increasingly promoted as a source of protein. As the number of farms rearing these insect increases, it is important to develop safe and nutritious feed sources to improve their commercial quality. The aim of the current study was to determine the effect of food by-products as feed supplements for the Korean rhinoceros beetle, Allomyrina dichotoma, which has been registered as a general food ingredient in Korea. We compared the effects of waste citrus peel, soybean curd cake, soybean oil meal, and brewers' dried grain on the growth of third instar larvae of A. dichotoma. Groups of larvae were fed with fermented sawdust and nine different combinations of the above by-products and the effects on their growth were measured until pupation. The highest survival rate was with feed supplemented with 10% brewers' dried grain (66.7%, p<0.05), and these larvae were also 26% heavier (p<0.05) than the control group that received no supplementation. In the 10% brewers' dried grain group, the larval period of third instar was shortened by almost 28 days (p<0.01) compared to the control group. Of all the groups, only that which was fed the brewers' dried grain supplement showed more than a 90% pupation rate (p<0.05). Therefore, brewers' dried grain may be useful as a source of feed for A. dichotoma.

Carboxymethyl chitin(CM-chitin) was prepared by the reaction of alkali chitin with monochloroacetic acid in isopropyl alcohol. According to the pH variation, the adsorptivity of this chelating polymer to the alkali-earth metal ions such as $Ca^{2+},\;Mg^{2+}$, $Sr^{2+}$, $Ba^{2+}$ ions was determined by batch method. The adsorption tendency of this chelating polymer to most metal ions was increased with the increase of pH. The highest degree of adsorption was observed toward $Ca^{2+}$ ion among the alkali-earth metal ions. The selectivity adsorption property toward $Ca^{2+}$ ion was examined in the solution of $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ ions, and it was observed that CM-chitin showed excellent selectivity to $Ca^{2+}$ ion than $Mg^{2+}$ ion. $Mg^{2+}$ ion bound to CM-chitin molecule in the presence of $Ca^{2+}$ ion owing to low equilibrium constant. In the adsorption experiment of $Ca^{2+}$ and $Mg^{2+}$ ions to the CM-chitin under coexistence of $Na^+$ and $K^+$ ions, it observed that adsorptivity of only $Ca^{2+}$ ions was not affected by these monovalent cations.

Recommender systems help users find their interesting items more easily or provide users with meaningful items based on their preferences. Collaborative filtering(CF) recommender systems, the most successful recommender system, use opinions of users to recommend for an active user who needs recommendation. That is, ratings which users have voted on items to indicate preference on them are the source for making recommendation. Although CF systems are designed only to use users' preferences as the source of recommendation, use of some available information is believed to increase both the performance and the accuracy of CF systems. In this paper, we propose a CF recommender system which utilizes both degree of match and demographic information(e.g., occupation, gender, age) to increase the performance and the accuracy. Since more and more information is accumulated in CF systems, it is important to reduce the data volume while maintaining the same or the higher level of accuracy. We used both degree of match and demographic information as criteria for reducing the data volume, thereby naturally enhancing the performance. It is shown that using degree of match improves the prediction accuracy too in CF systems and also that using some demographic information also results in better accuracy.
