  • Concerns of entomopathogenic fungi as alternative pest control agents are increasing even though chemical pesticides have been used as the main control agents for pests and diseases in crop production. This study was conducted to test the influence of fungicides and insecticides on an isolate of Lecanicillium attenuatum that was reported to have the pathogenicity against cotton aphid, because fungicides and/or insecticides can apply with mycopesticides simultaneous, before and/or after. Fungicides fenbuconazole+thiram and propineb inhibited the spore germination and mycelial growth of L. attenuatum CS625; dimethomorph and procymidone did not affect spore germination or mycelial growth. The insecticide abamectin, deltamethrin, imidachropride, and spinosad had no detrimental effects on spore germination or mycelial growth. Therefore, these results demonstrated that careful selection of pesticides and fungicides can be applied to the integrated pest and disease control with microbial pesticide.

  • Insects constitute the largest and most diverse group of animals in the world. They also serve as the hosts or nutrient sources for an immense assemblage of pathogens, parasites, and predators. More than 700 fungal species from 100 genera have adopted an entomopathogenic lifestyle. Although entomopathogenic fungi were studied as only biocontrol agents against a variety of pests in various countries, it has been recently focused their additional roles in nature. They are antagonists to/against plant pathogens, endophytes, and possibly even plant growth promoting agents. The potential antimicrobial effect against fungal plant pathogens by an isolate of entomopathogenic fungi including Beauveria bassiana, Lecanicillium spp., and Isaria fumosorosea have been reported since late 1990s, but wasn't reported pathogenicity of the isolate against pests. Later, a Canadian Lecanicillium sp. isolate and L. longisporium isolated from Vertalec$^{(R)}$ showed simultaneous control effect against both aphid and cucumber powder mildew. Therefore, the antimicrobial activities of 342 fungi isolates collected from various regions and conditions in Korea were evaluated against plant pathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea using dual culture technique on agar plate. As a result, 186 isolates (54.4%) shown the antifungal activity against B. cinerea. The culture filtrates of selected fungi completely suppressed the growth of the microorganisms, indicating that suppression was due to the presence of antimicrobial substances in the culture filtrate. Mode of action of these fungi against insect involves the attachment of conidia to the insect cuticle, followed by germination, cuticle penetration, and internal dissemination throughout the insect. During infection process, secreted enzymes, proteinous toxins, and/or secondary metabolites secreted by entomopathogenic fungi can be used to overcome the host immune system, modify host behavior, and defend host resources. Recently, secondary metabolites isolated from entomopathogenic fungi have been reported as potential bioactive substances. Generally, most of bioactive substances produced by entomopathogenic fungi have reported low molecular weight (lower than 1,000 g/mol) as peptide and, in contrast the high molecular weight fungal bioactive substances are rare. Most substances based on entomopathogenic fungi were shown antimicrobial activity with narrow control ranges. In our study we analyzed the antimicrobial substances having antagonistic effects to B. cinerea. Antimicrobial substances in our fungal culture filtrates showed high thermostability, high stability to proteolytic enzymes, and hydrophilicity and their molecular weights were differed from substance. In conclusion, entomopathogenic fungi showed pathogenicity against insect pests and culture filtrate of the fungi also shown to antimicrobial activity. In the future, we can use the entomopathogenic fungi and its secondary metabolites to control both insect pest control and plant pathogenic fungi simultaneously.

  • 살충성진균 Metarhizium anisopliae가 시들음병을 일으키는 Fusarium oxysporum, 잿빛곰팡이 병을 일으키는 Botrytis cinerea, 겹둥근무늬병을 일으키는 Alternaria solani 등에 대하여 항진균활성을 갖는지 알아보았다. 그 결과 Plate상에서 균사생장저해 실험과 inhibition rate실험을 했을 때 항진균활성이 검정되었으며 또한 YPD배지에서 배양된 M. anisopliae로부터 얻은 배양여액을 식물병원균에 30%농도로 첨가했을 때 이들의 포자발아율은 B. cinerea, F. oxysporum에서 각각 21.5%(control: 88.2%), 53.0%(control: 78.6%)로 감소하였으며 발아개시 시간도 8시간 정도 지연되었다. 또한 현미경을 통한 미세구조관찰에서는 10% 배양여액을 첨가했을 때 F. oxysporum의 균사로부터 후막포자가 생성되고 생장저해가 일어나는 것이 확인되었다. 이상의 결과로부터 M. anisopliae의 항진균활성은 fungistatic effect를 나타냄을 알 수 있었다.

  • To select entomopathogenic fungi controlling aphids effectively, several isolates were screened against second instars of Myzus persicae nymphs in the glasshouse using conidia suspension at $1.0{\times}10^5$ conidia/ml. Among these isolates, SFB-205 conidia showed the highest insecticidal activity about 32.7% efficacy to M. persicae at 4 days after application in the glasshouse. The attachment of SFB-205 conidia on the surface of M. persicae nymphs, and germination and penetration were observed using scanning electron microscopy. SFB-205 was identified as Beauveria bassiana species through the comparison of 5.8 s rRNA genes. There were 24 polymorphisms between SFB-205 and the previously reported isolate, B. bassiana ATCC74040 using six kinds of primer combinations in amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis. The B. bassiana SFB-205 might be used as a practical biological control agent for the green peach aphid, M. persicae in the field.

  • 식물병원균 Botrytis cinerea와 Fusarium oxysporum에 대한 생물학적 방제의 기초자료를 얻기 위하여 살충성 진균 Beauveria bassiana의 식물병원균에 대한 균사성장저해, 포자발아 억제, 균사와 포자의 형태변화 등의 효과를 살펴보았다. 평판배지 상에서 두 식물병원균의 균사생장이 저해되었으며, 저해효과는 배지종류에 따라 달랐는데 B. cinerea의 경우 PDA배지에서 가장 크게 저해되었으며 F. oxysporum의 경우에는 TSA배지에서 가장 크게 저해되었다. B. bassiana는 $25^{\circ}C$에서 6일간 배양했을 때 F. oxysporum에 대한 항균력이 가장 높았으며 동시에 최대의 균체량을 생산하였다. 또한 B. bassiana의 배양여액을 식물병원균에 30% 농도로 첨가하여 배양했을 때 식물병원균의 포자 발아율은 B. cinerea, F. oxysporum에서 각각 30%(control: 88.2%), 10.0%(control: 78.6%)로 낮아졌으며 발아 개시 시간도 4~8시간 지연되었다. 현미경을 통한 미세구조관찰에서는 10%의 B. bassiana배양여액을 첨가했을 때 F. oxysporum의 포자 크기가 1/2~1/3으로 줄어들었으며 균사와 격막의 형태도 비정상적으로 변하여 균사외막과 격막-격막 사이의 구분이 불명확해졌다.

  • Six entomopathogenic fungus isolates, Beauveria bassiana J57A, Nomuraea rileyi J125A, Paecilomyces farinosus J3A, Paecilomyces fumosoroseus J50A, Metarhizium anisopliae J88, Aspergilius sp. J64A, causing muscardine disease and aspergillosis in the silkworm, Bombyx mori were investigated for their cultural and morphological characteristics (on PDA culture media within 14 days at $24^{\circ}C$). The results showed that they differ each other from the features of cultural characteristics (colony elevation, colony color, colony growth rate) or morphological characteristics (conidiogenous cell structure, phialides, conidia size and shape). Among cultural characteristics, colony color is the easiest recognizable character between isolates. The morphological characteristics of each fungal isolate correspond to the descriptions of current system of classification.

  • 난방제 해충의 하나인 파밤나방의 생물적 방제를 위하여 곤충병원성 곰팡이를 수집, 분리하여 파밤나방에 고병원성인 곰팡이를 선발하는 연구를 수행하였다. 곤충병원성 곰팡이의 수집은 친환경 농업지역인 경기도 양평 지역의 수집된 토양 샘플에 갈색거저리를 넣어 감염된 곤충에서 곰팡이를 분리, 수집하는 insect-bait법을 활용하였다. 분리한 곤충병원성 곰팡이를 파밤나방 3령 유충에 처리한 결과, FT83균주가 파밤나방에 병원성이 높았으며, 현미경을 이용한 형태학적 분석과 18srRNA의 ITS sequencing을 통한 분자생물학적 방법을 이용하여 동정한 결과 Metarhizium anisopliae로 동정되었다. 선발한 M. anisopliae FT83의 온도별 균사생장속도는 $15^{\circ}C$에서 $30^{\circ}C$까지는 온도가 증가할수록 균사의 생장이 촉진되었으나 35에서는 균사가 생장하지 않았다. 선발 균주의 농도별 살충율은 $1{\times}10^6$ conidia/ml에서 $81.6{\pm}9.3%$, $1{\times}10^7$ conidia/ml에서 100%, $1{\times}10^8$conidia/ml에서 100%로 $1{\times}10^7$ conidia/ml 농도가 경제적인 처리농도였다.
