The Studies were conducted to provide the state of mulberry cultivation and it's development in Banguet province (high land) of Philippines. Philippines initiated the sericulture industry with the technical asistance of Japan in 1974 and established mulberry field and sericultural facilities with technical asistance of Korea in 1990 and 1995. The required average of 100 to 150mm per month is not available during the dry season from December to March. Therefore mulching with grass which is available abundantly in the Philippines should be established to conserve moisture, to control soil erosion, surface ran-off and also to increase the humus content in the soil. In chemical properties of mulberry field, the pH value of soil is 4.7, organic matter 1.6%, and available phosphorus 6ppm. Therefore, all fields should do liming and be applied compost. To improve leaf yield for mulberry planted under partial shade area of pine trees, more pruning of pine tree should be done for good sunshining of mulberry, more liming and compost should be applied to improve acidic soil. To control the leaf roller, DDVP and KAFIL are able to be used. When spraying insecticides to control mulberry insect pests, care should be taken to consider the residual effects of chemicals on the leaf. Leaf should be fed to silkworms only after the leaves are free of any residual effects.

Brown planthopper(BPH) is one of the most destructive insect pests of rice. The use of genetically resistant cultivars has proven to be a more economical, efficient and environment friendly means to combat this pest. This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between BPH resistant gene, Bph18 and yield components of rice using DH(doubled haploid) lines derived from 'Saenuri'/SR30071-3-7-23-6-1-1-1. SR30071-3-7-23-6-1-1-1 line has Bph18 gene derived from wild species, Oryza australiensis. BPH resistant gene, Bph18 shortened heading days, enlarged culm length and panicle length and reduced ratio of ripened grains of rice. The results indicate that backcrossing breeding is necessary to develop elite cultivars carrying Bph18 gene.

To establish the systematic biological control system for various insect pests in strawberry under plastic houses, we were investigated the biological traits of lesser strawberry aphid, Chaetosiphon minus (Forbes), as a target pest. The lesser strawberry aphid is adapted to low temperatures while examining the availability of and selecting useful natural enemies. The development, survivorship and reproduction of lesser strawberry aphid were evaluated at four constant temperatures (10, 15, 20, and 25℃). The developmental periods of the nymphal stages ranged from 41.7 d at 10℃ to 9.8 d at 25℃. The developmental threshold temperature and degree day of nymphal stages are 5.5℃ and 185 DD. The reproduction rate (R₀) was higher at 20℃ (30.16) than at 25℃ (22.38). The 50 % survival rate and maximum longevity of adult females were 31 d and 59 d at 20℃, and 25 d and 36 d at 25℃, respectively. The average progeny per female was 35 at 20℃, and 26 at 25℃. We confirmed that compared to other strawberry aphids under plastic houses, the lesser strawberry aphid is more adapted to lower temperatures. It is, therefore, necessary to commercialize natural enemies such as syrphid flies with high activity at low temperatures.

For greenhouse crops, thrips is one of the major insect pests, but its control is difficult owing to short generation time, rapid escaping behavior, and development of pesticide resistance. Stratiolaelaps scimitus (Womersley) is a soil-dwelling predatory mite attacking various soil invertebrate species, including thrips. Using the method by growers' self-production, we mass-reared S. scimitus colony and investigated thrips control in the greenhouse chrysanthemum. The initial density of thrips was six individuals/flower. The treatment with one S. scimitus box in the greenhouse was estimated to be $1,000individuals/m^2$. From August to September 2018, the greenhouse was released with a total of 10 boxes of S. scimitus. The density of thrips in the untreated and the treated cultivar was $53.7{\pm}7.0$ and $13.5{\pm}1.7$ on the late September, respectively, which indicated a reduction of 74.9% in the treated cultivar. Our results suggest that S. scimitus was highly effective for the control of thrips in the greenhouse chrysanthemum although temperature is very high during the summer season.
