충남지방에서 많이 재배되고 10개의 벼 품종을 대상으로 벼멸구(Nilaparvata lugens)의 섭식행동을 EPG 패턴으로 분석하였다. 또한 벼의 섭식시간과 감로분비량의 관계를 알아보고 측정한 EPG 패턴을 비교분석하였다. 벼멸구의 각 EPG type을 전기적인 특성에 따라 1-6까지의 6가지로 분류하였다. 이중 Type 1은 구침을 꽂지 않고 쉬거나 돌아다닐 때 나타나는 패턴이고 Type 2는 체관을 흡즙할 때 나타나는 패턴이고 Type 3은 처음으로 구침을 꽂을 때, Type 4는 타액 분비시, Type 5는 물관의 흡즙시, Type 6은 구침의 세포내 이동시 나타난다. 벼멸구의 각 품종에 대한 섭식시간은 금남벼에서는 짧은 시간동안 이루어졌고 동전벼, 대안벼, 동안벼, 대산벼에서는 오랜 시간 흡즙을 하였다. 또한 금남벼에서는 장시간 구침을 삽입하지 않는 시간이 길었다. 감로의 분비량은 동진벼에서 가장 많았고 금남벼에서 가장 적은 감로를 분비했다. 이 감로의 분비량은 체관의 흡즙시간과 비례하여 나타났다. EPG type과 감로의 분비량을 분석한 결과 벼멸구가 선호하는 품종은 동진벼, 동안벼, 대산벼, 대안벼 등이었고 그렇지 않은 품종은 금남벼, 다산벼, 남천벼 등이었다.

Ant communities are well suited for monitoring changes in ecosystems. Although numerous studies have examined the responses of ant communities to environmental disturbance, relatively few long-term studies on ant communities have been undertaken in urban environments. We examined species richness in nine urban parks in Hiroshima, Japan, and compared the survey results with data collected at the same sites by using the same methods in 1999. In both surveys, total of 25 species was recorded: 23 species in 1999 and 20 species in 2012. Non-metric multidimensional scaling analysis revealed that the ant communities consisted of two distinct groups, which could in turn be characterized by three patterns of ant community changes in between the two groups. The first of these community change patterns was characterized by a shift within group 1, but the number of species remained constant (approx. 10 species). The second pattern was characterized by a shift within group 2, but the number of species remained low (approx. 4 species). The third pattern was characterized by a shift from group 1 to group 2 as the abundance of Linepithema humile (Mayr) increased over time. Unlike the first and second patterns, the number of ant species in communities of the third type decreased significantly. These findings suggest that L. humile has a marked effect on the species diversity of indigenous ant communities in urban environments.

Application of precision farming technology to rice cultivation could be an effective measure for rice quality improvement and environment-friendly agriculture. This study was conducted to develope a variable rate pneumatic granule applicator. Previous study reported that application uniformity of the prototype machine (C.V. = 23.3%) was not satisfactory. To improve the uniformity, increase of blow-head number from 12 to 16 was suggested. Analysis of the pneumatic conveying system showed that increase of number of blow-head was possible. Three-way variance analysis of the modified applicator showed that inserting length should be changed according to granule metering rate. The range of metering rate from 27.3 to 417.9 g/s were divided into 4 levels and 4 sets of inserting lengths were determined to ensure CV values less than 15%. The revised applicator showed satisfactory C.V. values of 9.4 to 14.6% in the metering rate. Granule conveying pattern was observed using a high speed camera and judged as the homogeneous flow pattern.

Recent identification and characterization of plant homeobox genes suggest that they play important roles in morphogenetic events. OSH1, one of the rice homeobox genes, is thought to be related to organ development since the changes of OSH1 gene expression cause morphological abnormalities of leaves by the ectopic expression and is expressed during early embryogenesis. In this experiment, the expression pattern of OSH1 was analyzedinmutants by in situ hybridization, and OSH1's potential as a molecular marker was explored. Region-specific expression of OSH1 during early embryogenesis shows that OSH1 could be used as a molecular marker for characterizing embryo mutants. Although several organless and shootless mutants showed normal expression of OSM1, some mutants exhibited abnormal expression patterns. In a minute organless cle1-1 embryo whose epidermis resembled morphologically the epithelium of scutellum, OSH1 expression was limited to a small basal region. This expression pattern suggests the gross deletion of the basal part. In a radicleless mutant, odm115, OSH1 expression was detected in a basal region instead of subcentral region of the ventral side. Together with other characteristics (short embryo and normal adventitious roots), odm115 was estimated to be derived from the deletion of basal region. Among five shootless mutants, three showed normal expression of OSH1. In the shl2 embryo, no expression of OSH1 was observed. In the shl1 embryo, however, OSH1 expression was extended to a dorsal side, indicating that SHL2 might be related to dorsoventral patterning. The above results of in situ hybrydization clearly indicate that OSH1 can be utilized as a marker for characterizing gene functions of embryo mutants.

Diurnal variation in faecal chromic oxide levels was estimated from 4 hourly faecal sampling of 56 wethers allotted to one of six different feeding patterns. Sampling occurred on days 6 and 7 (Period 1) after a controlled release device was administered, and was repeated on days 14 and 15 (Period 2) following re-randomisation of the wethers to the feeding patterns. Increasing the frequency of feeding tended to be associated with higher faecal chromic oxide levels (p < 0.05), particularly in wethers fed thrice daily at 8 hour intervals. There was no interaction between feeding pattern and period, sampling day or time within-day. There were significant period x time within-day (p < 0.05) and day x time within-day (p < 0.001) interactions, indicating that variation in faecal chromic oxide between sample times was not consistent. This implies that sampling at any time of day is unlikely to result in a biased estimate of pasture intake, providing sufficient samples are collected. Significant period (p < 0.001) and period x day (p < 0.01) effects were associated with slow faecal chromic oxide equilibration in period 1. Equilibration did not occur until after day 7, indicating a need for caution when commencing sampling.

The Organic agricultural techinques were investigated through the observations made for 3 years of the actual conditions of a farmer who has been practicing organic agriculture over 21 years. The farmer was a member of the Ichijima-cho Organic Agriculture Association. The Farmer had not performed much of the organic agricultural techinques at the beginning of his farming history. However, he has gradually developed techniques upon the experiences with trial and error. The notable characteristic of his basic organic agriculture was the utilization of a suitable organic fertilizer to make the soil fertile. Crop damages by diseases and insect pests were prevented through a fertile soil, raising of good seedlings, adoption of tolerant varieties and planting at a wide spacing and consequently considering not to use chemical pesticides. Introduction of power weeder for weed control and paddy-upland crop rotation reduced the cost of production for farming. The crop pattern and method of land us such as mix cropping, crop rotation and conversion of paddy field-upland fieldd were appeared to be very important in organic agriculture. The organic agricultural techniques get systematized upon the adaptation the regional ecology and the development of skills of the farmer. The most important point to achieve the success in organic agriculture system is not only by the development of the technical matters but also by the building of healthy relation and understandings between producers and consumers.

Gloeocercospora sorghi caused the zonate leaf spot on sorghum (Sorghum bicolor Moench) in fields in Korea. The zonate spots were conspicuous on sorghum leaves as circular, reddish purple bands alternating with tan or straw-colored areas, which formed a coarsely zonate pattern. The lesions often occurred in semicircular patterns along the margin of leaves. The fungus produced sporodochia on the surface of infected leaves in a moist chamber. The conidia, born in a pinkish to salmon-colored slimy matrix, were hyaline, elongate to filiform, straight or slightly curved, 3- to 17-septate, and of variable lenght (28-197 x 1.6-$3.4\mu\textrm{m}$). G. sorghi isolated from diseased leaves of sorghum caused characteristic reddish-brown water-soaked leaf spots when inoculated to seedlings.

들깻잎에서 pocymidone과 bifenthrin의 경우 안전사용기준인 약제살포 후 5일에 각각의 농도가 38.16, 1.77 mg/kg이지만 이는 살포 조건과 재배환경에 따른 농약의 초기부착농도가 높은데서 기인한 것이라고 예상되어진다. 앞에서의 결과들로 미루어 볼 때 일반적인 농약의 안전사용기준으로 농약을 처리한다면 최초살포 이후 재배기간에서 5일간 50% 이상이 분해되고 10일 후에는 90%이상이 분해된다. 또한 상온저장 중 $20{\sim}40%$가 분해되며 수돗물 세척에 의해서 만으로도 50%이상이 제거되므로 조리과정을 감안하지 않더라도 초기살포량의 약 90%는 분해 또는 제거되어 안전사용기준에 의거하여 사용한다면 두 약제 모두 MRL이하로 잔류하게 되어 별다른 문제가 없을 것으로 예상되어진다. 하지만 현행법상 수확시점에 그 잔류량을 조사하도록 되어 있으므로 깻잎의 경우 재배가 대부분 하우스에서 이루어짐을 감안한다면 두 약제모두 초기살포시 작물체로의 부착량이 많을 경우에 수확시점에서의 잔류량이 MRL을 상회할 가능성도 있음을 알 수 있었다. 따라서 이에 따른 약제 사용량의 축소나 저농도 약제의 사용, 살포일수의 조정 등에 관한 연구가 필요하다고 본다.
