1. The mycelial growth and sporulation of Mycogone perniciosa was compared on modified Czapek's media deficient in carbon source, nitrogen source, K,Mg, P or the heavy metal elements. The mycelial growth was significantly reduced in solution cultures lacking Mg, K or P and only a trace of growth occurred in solutions lacking carbon source or nitrogen source. Most sparse sporulation and smaller chlamydospores than on any of deficient agar media occurred on agar media dificient in carbon source or nitrogen source. 2. In both potato dextrose agar and malt extract solution, growth of the fungus was optimum at $25^{\circ}C$, and undetectable at $10^{\circ}C$ and $35^{\circ}C$. 3. Optimum pH for growth of this fungus was 7.0. 4. This fungus was killed in soil when exposed to $50^{\circ}C$ or higher for 20 minutes or more.

The present study evaluated the susceptibility of field populations of Plutella xylostella and Spodoptera exigua larvae to four diamide insecticides-chlorantraniliprole, cyantraniliprole, cyclaniliprole, and flubendiamide. All the four diamide insecticides induced 100% mortality in the populations from Seongju (SJ) and Geochang (GC) when treated at a concentration recommended for P. xylostella. However, a very low insecticidal activity was observed in the population from Pyeongchang (PC) with 42.3% 3 d after treatment with chlorantraniliprole. The relative resistance ratio of P. xylostella to cyclaniliprole was similar or low (0.1-6.3 folds) in all the four areas. However, the population from PC exhibited a high resistance ratio to chlorantraniliprole (1,196.3 folds), cyantraniliprole (105.6 folds), and flubendiamide (191.6 folds) compared with that of the susceptible strain P. xylostella. Further, the populations of S. exigua from Cheongju (CJ), Jindo (JD), and Yeonggwang (YG) were not completely controlled by the 4 diamide insecticides. These populations also showed high relative resistance ratio when compared with that of the susceptible strain S. exigua. In particular, the populations from CJ and JD showed 100,000-fold higher resistance ratio to flubendiamide. A comparison of susceptibility of S. exigua larvae to chlorantraniliprole between 2014 and 2017 showed that chlorantraniliprole induced 100% mortality in all populations in 2014, whereas a very low insecticidal activity was observed among the populations in 2017. The results of the present study indicate that the insect pests rapidly develop resistance to diamide insecticides. Therefore, alternative insecticides with a different mechanism of action and comprehensive control strategy are needed. This study can serve as a basis to control pests effectively using diamide insecticides.

Effect on blast lesion development was investigated in rice cultivar Milyang 23 and Jinheung using two races of Pyricularia oryzae compatible or incompatible to each of two rice cultivars. Discase lesions were measured in rice when inoculated with inoculum mixed with compatible and incompatible races, inoculated with a compatible race following with an incompatible race and vice versa. Lesions were smaller when rice was incoulated with an incompatible race and then inoculated with a compatible race than those inoculated in the reverse way both at the inoculated site and at 3cm-upper part from inoculated spot. The results suggested that induced resistance might play a role in suppression of lesion development although such an effect appeared to be influenced by heavy application of nitrogen fertilizer.

To investigate the incidence status of lily viruses on Jeju island, lily samples were collected from 2015 to 2018 and examined for virus infection using RT-PCR. Of the viral infections, mixed and single infections were 70.0% and 17.9%, respectively. The incidence of mixed infections was highest for PlAMV and LSV as 43.4% in 2015; PlAMV, LSV 33.1% in 2016; LSV, LMoV 10.2% in 2017; and PlAMV, LSV, LMoV and CMV 15.8% in 2018. The incidence of PlAMV was observed to be 82.0% in 2015, 49.4% in 2016, 13.6% in 2017, and 39.5% in 2018 after the first occurrence of PlAMV in 2013. No symptoms were observed for single infection with LSV. However, in the case of mixed infection with LSV and LMoV, mosaic and leaf malformation symptoms appeared. With mixed infection with LSV and CMV, pale brown necrotic spots appeared, and mosaic and leaf curling were induced. PlAMV was more common in mixed infection than in single infection, and caused necrosis following the development of reddish-brown spots. PlAMV significantly decreased the marketability of lilies owing to the generation of leaf anomalies and curls, and its symptoms were more severe in mixed infections.

To investigate the factors affecting the transportability of spray droplets, the maximum distance, the effective distance, the ratio of even distribution, and the diameters of particles were measured in accordance with the different pressure levels of power sprayer using 3 hole swath type nozzle, and the results are summerized as follows; 1. The distance of the most dense point from the nozzle was shortened by 0.5 meter with the 100-meter-long hose. The maximum reaching distances were reduced by 1.5 and 1.0 meters for the 13m/m and the 8.5 m/m hoses respectively, and the effective distance were reduced by 0.5 meter for both cases. 2. The effective distance can not be extended beyond 14 meters even if the length of hose is minimized at the rated pump pressure 28 kg/$cm^2$, it was 1 meter longer for 13m/m hose compared to the 8.5m/m one. 3. In case of 13m/m hose, the most dense point can be extended further by 0.5 meter increasing the pump pressure by 8 kg/$cm^2$, and the maximum distance and effective distance were increased by 2.0 and 0.5 meters respectively. There was no significant effect of pressure changes on the transportability in case of 8.5m/m hose. 4. Both the reduction of hose length and the increase of pump pressure influenced in large extent to the atomization effect of droplets. It was noticed that the diameter of droplet is related to the pump pressure and inside diameter of hose. 5. The pressure drop in 100-meter-long and l3m/m hose was 5~7kg/$cm^2$ at the pump pressure range of 25~33kg/$cm^2$, and it is an equivalent of 2% per 10 meter length of hose.

The results of study on planting and cultivate of Hong Man-Seon(1643~1715)'s 'Salimkyungjae(The Economy of Forest)' the first summative textbook of agricultural skill of South Korea, are as follows. First, 'Salimkyungjae' suggests that one can enrich oneself, eat fruits in fall, enjoy the shade of trees in summer, and enjoy flowers in spring if one plants tree with 10 year plan with knowledge of ecology. Second, the number of plants had increased continuously from the early Chosun Dynasty to the mid Chosun Dynasty. The 52 plants in the book are classified into 31 trees, 8 shrubs, 3 others, and 10 herbs, and 28 of them are fruit trees. Hence, we can see that the book is for the promotion of welfare. Third, planting(transplantation) is the best on January of the lunar calendar, and the second on February, and fertile soil should be added much. Trees must be planted as deep as once it was planted, and buttressed. It will sprout well if it is planted at the depth of one inch, and planting a cutting should be carried out at the early March with 5 inch and finger-thick branches. Grafting is the best when it begins to sprout. Fruit trees will bear many fruits if they are grafted at the direction of South, and fruits will be greater if the trees' branches are cutting off on January. Especially, January was selected for the best season of planting traditionally. Fourth, flower trees are planted or sowed with manure around January and February of the lunar calendar, and it is recommended to replant them into flowerpots with manure when having flower buds around March and April of the lunar calendar. It would bloom earlier when using water mixed with stable manure, and sulfur smoke can be used in order to change the flower color from red to white. Flowerpots would be placed at half shaded lot with being supported by bricks. Pomegranate, gardenia, camellia and four-season flower should be planted after flowers fallen. When flower trees are beside walls, they need to be rotated frequently since their branches all point toward house. Seeds need to be preserved in a sunny hut, where its entrance and ventilating openings would be at south because it is convenient to manage pots. Fifth, insects hidden at fruit trees would be destroyed by torch smoke when roosters cry on New year's day of the lunar calendar. Insects would be decoyed into straw hanged at dawn of Cheongmyeongday(淸明日). Insects on fruit trees would be controlled using sulfur powder to close up holes or sulfur smoke to fumigate. Particularly, it suggests that utilization of fertile soil would be the best solution for growing health plants and preventing pest.
