The present study was performed to investigate photodegradation rate constants and degradation products of piperophos by the USEPA method. The pesticide was very stable in 16 days exposure of sunlight from October 3 to 22, 2003 and humic acid had no sensitizing effect on the photolysis of each pesticide in sunlight. In the UV irradiation test, piperophos was rapidly degraded as increasing UV intensity. In case of UV irradiation with TiO$_2$ and with TiO$_2$ powder amount, degradation of piperophos was slower than UV irradiation. In order to identify photolysis product, the extracts of degradation product was analyzed by GC/MS. The mass spectrum of photolysis product of piperophos was at m/z 166. It was suggested that the photolysis products of piperophos was O, O-dipropyl phosphorodithioate.

This study was performed to investigate the bioconcentration of IBP, methidathion and piperophos. The BCFs(bioconcentration factor), depuration rate constants for three pesticides in zebrafish(Brachydanio rerio) were measured by OECD guideline 305. The concentration of test pesicides were one-hundredth and one-thousandth concentration of 96-hrs L $C_{50}$ in accordance with OECD guideline 305. The results obtained are summarized as follows: The average BCF values of IBP were 5.31(n=4) and 7.30(n=4) at one-hundredth and one-thousandth concentration of 96-hrs L $C_{50}$ . The average BCF values of methidathion were 8.72(n=4) and 11.25(n=4), the average BCF values of piperophos were 34.30(n=4) and 42.60(n=4). Depuration rate constants of IBP were 0.09( $h^{-1}$ ) and 0.08( $h^{-1}$ ), half-life of IBP were 7.70 and 8.66 at each tested concentration. The concentrations of IBP in zebrafish at low and high concentrations rapidly decreased after 12(0.243$\mu\textrm{g}$/g) and 12 hours(0.040$\mu\textrm{g}$/g). Depuration rate constants of methidathion were 0.40( $h^{-1}$ ), half-life of methidathion were 1.73 at one-hunderdth and of 96-hrs L $C_{50}$ , repectively. The concentrations of methidathion in zebrafish at high concentrations rapidly decreased after 6 hours(0.18 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g). Depuration rate constant of low concentration was no measured because methidathion in zebrafish was depurated in 6 hours. Depuration rate constants of piperophos sere 0.15( $h^{-1}$ ) and 0.44( $h^{-1}$ ), half-life of piperophos were 4.62 and 1.58 at each tested concentration. The concentrations of piperophos in zebrafish at los and high concentrations rapidly decreased after 12(0.26$\mu\textrm{g}$/g) and 6 hours(0.015 $\mu\textrm{g}$/g). It was suggested that high BCF of piperophos was due to high Kow(octanol-water partition coefficient). The possibility of bioconcenration was not likely to be high because of its $K_{DEP}$(depuration rate constant) in the evniroment. It was suggested that low BCF of methidathion showed lowest Kow as well as the most rapid $K_{DEP}$. Therefore, the possibility of bioconcentration was not occured in the enviroment. It was suggested that the BCF dtermined for IBP was lower than that of other pesticides due to high Sw(water solubility), show $K_{DEP}$. Therefore, IBP revealed little bioconcentration effect on in aquatic ecosystem.ystem.

The experiments were conducted in order to find out the response of algae as affected by fertilizer and salinity, and to determine the chemical control method of algae in 1991. The higher the nitrogen fertilizer level, the more the occurrence of a blue-green alga Oscillatoria concerning with soil flakes. An increase in phosphorus fertilizer level stimulated the growth of green alga Hydrodictyon, whereas an increase in nitrogen level caused its abrupt reduction due to the harmful effect at high concentration of nitrogen, The high level of nitrogen fertilizer also reduced the growth of Euglena, although the detrimental effect was less compared with that of Hydrodictyon. A blue-green alga Oscillatoria, a green alga Cladophora and a diatom Navicula were tolerant to salinity. Piperophos/dimethametryn was highly effective in controlling various algae such as a green alga Hydrodictyon, suspended unicellular green algae and Euglena species. A fungicide propineb and copper sulfate also effectively controlled Hydrodictyon.

Six herbicides were evaluated to investigate the phytotoxicity of rice plant and the weeding efficacy influenced by the time of application in mechically transplanted paddy field. The amount of each chemical applied was 3 kg, a. i, /ha. Chlormethoxynil : Rotala indica KOEHNE and Lindernia pyxuiaria PHILCOX were effectively controlled when applied on the 12th day after transplanting (12 DAT) and this herbicide was excellent for the control of Echinochloa crusgalli P. BEAUV, Monochoria vaginalis PRESL and Sagittaria pygmaea MIQ, when applied early (7 days after puddling) but its weeding effect for these weeds decreased greatly as the application time became later. It had a controlling effect for Potamogeton distinctus A. BENN, Cyperus serotinus ROTTB and Scirpus hotarui ROXB at the initial period at the earlier application time. Butachlor was effective in controlling E. crusgalli, R. indica and L. pyxidaria at 12 days after transplanting (DAT) but was not effective in controlling P. distinctus and S. pygmaea even at the early application time. M. vaginalis, C. serotinus and S. hotarui were effectively controlled by the butachlor treatment at 7 days after final puddling (2 DBT-SDAT) but this weeding effect decreased at the late application time. A combination of butachlor and naproanilide excellently controlled E. crusgalli, R. indica, L. pyxidaria and S. pygmaea regardless of the application time. For the control of M. vaginalis, C. serotinus and P. distinctus, the weeding effect of this mixtures was much greater than that of the single treatment of butachlor. Perfluidone was excellent for the control of E. crusgalli, R. indica, L. pyxidaria, M. vaginalis and S. pygmaea at either application time tested. P. distinctus, C. serorinus and S. hotarui could be controlled by this chemicals until the time of first observation (23 DAT) but the effect for these weeds somewhat decreased as time passed. The effect of pyrazolate on E. crusgalli, M. vaginalis, S. hotarui and P. distinctus was very excellent regardless of the application time but R. indica and L. pyxidaria could not be completely eliminated by this chemical. This chemical was effective in controlling C. serotinus when applied at 7-9 days after final puddling and showed a controlling effect for S. hotaruionly at the initial period. Piperophos + dimethametryn was very excellent for the control of all the annual weeds and P. distinctus. It showed a controlling effect on S. pygmaea, C. serotinus and S. hotarui only at the initial period. There was no difference in the effects on phytotoxicity and yield between chlormethoxynil and pyrazolate at either times of application tested. The later the application time was, the less the phytotoxicity of butachlor and piperophos+dimethametryne was. The phytotoxicity of butachlor + naproanilide and perfluidone decrease in the plots treated at the later application time. When the last two chemicals were treated at 2 days before transplanting (DBT) the yield decreased as compared with the hand weeded plot.

This study was conducted to obtain information on occurrance ecology of Aneilema keisak Hassk. and establish its effective control system in direct-seeded rice. Optimum germination temperature and storage temperature to break dormancy were $22^{\circ}C$ and $4^{\circ}C$, respectively. Optimum content of soil moisture for germination was 35%(w/w) in clay loam soil, where recorded 85% of germination rate. In the inter-specific competition between density of Aneilema keisak Hassk. and constant rice-mixed stands, the plant height and the tiller of rice were decreased with increase of density of Aneilema keisak Hassk. Among the herbicides tested, piperophos+dimethametryn(8.2+2.2 g ai/10a) GR and. pyrazosulfuron-ethyl+mefenacet(2.1 + 105 g ai/10g) GR were found to be effective for control of Aneilema keisak Hassk., having more herbicidal effect with an earlier application.

The experiments on the ecological characteristics of the suspensible green algae and the algae causing soil-flakes and shier chemical control were conducted in 1992. The unicellular green algae which were dominated by Chlamydomonas sp. largely occurred when phosphorus was applied, but which were reduced by nitrogen application. The filamentous green algae which were dominated by Klebsormidium sp. largely occurred when phosphorus was applied, and which much more increased when nitrogen or potassium was combined with phosphorus. The suspensible green algae which were dominated by Klebsormidium sp. were controlled by 60-70% when simazine 10g ai/10a and propanil 105g ai/10a were applied. The dark blue soil-flakes largely occurred at nitrogen application, and which much more increased when nitrogen was combined with phosphorus. The dark brown soil-flakes largely occurred at phosphorus application, but no more increased even if nitrogen or potassium was combined with phosphorus. The dark blue soil-flakes which were dominated by Oscillatoria sp. much more increased at the temperature conditions of $18^{\circ}C$ compared with $24^{\circ}C$ and $29^{\circ}C$. The applications of bensulfuron/mefenacet/dymron, piperophos/dimethametryn and bensulfuron/dimepiperate controlled 70-90% of the dark blue soil-flakes.

An experiment was conducted at the Yeongnam Crop Experiment Station for 4 years from 1985 to understand the effect of repeated use of same herbicide on weed growth. For this, the most common 6 herbicides, butachlor, bifenox, butachlor/pyrazolate, piperophos/dimethametryne, bentazon and propanil were used as single treatment or combination treatment. For non chemical plots, weed occurrence was rapidly increased with time in terms of number and weight. However no rice plot recorded the least increasing ratio. Similar trend was obtained at the herbicide plot even though the increasing ratio varied by herbicide properties. The least increasing ratio (1200 was recorded at the plot of butachlor/pyrazolate (5 days after transplanting, 5 DAT) followed by bentazon+propanil(25 DAT) while the greatest ratio (28%) was obtained from the plot of bifenox (5 DAT). In general, Scirpus hotarui, Eleocharis kuroguwai and Cyperus serotinus was gradually inereased with time by herbicide application, particularly at the butachlor/pyrazolate treatment. The community dominance and simpson index increased at the plot of bentazon and propanil due to increased of particular species while other herbicide plots exhibited reverse trend. Grain yield was curvilinearly decreased with weed weight for both times, 40 DAT and heading time eventhough the correlation coefficient of heading time was higher than 40 DAT.

KSC-13906 [Erythro N-{(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yl)aminocarbonyl} -2-(2-fluoro-1-hydroxy-n-propyl) benzenesulfonamide, US Patent 5,461,025] was investigated how can control phytotoxicity fluctuation and what a good method apply to new rice herbicide. The growth inhibition was observed when the rice plants was transplanted at a shallow depth(0 - 1cm) and leaching was low(0 - 1cm/ day) from the paddy soil. KSC-13906 appeared to move readily down into the paddy soil with water by 3cm depth in the soil column(${\phi}$ 10cm) filled with loamy sand soil under 3cm/day of leaching condition. Artificial control releasing pattern, designed as treated with KSC-13906 of 9 or 18g ai/ha either at a once or daily treated dividing volume of 1/20, 1/25 and 1/30 of the total volume, increased the safety of KSC-13906 to direct seeded and transplanted rice. The safety of KSC-13906 was also enhanced when KSC-13906 was mixed with dymron. For example, the mixture of KSC-13906 and dymron effectively reduced injury of direct seeded rice plants at 18 and 500g ai/ha, respectively, treated 7 days after transplanting. However, combination of KSC-13906 and several herbicides didn't show any synergistic effetct on herbicidal activity and safening effect on rice. However, the combination of KSC-13906+dymron (9~12+250~500g ai/ha) or KSC-13906+mefenacet+dymron(9+250+250g ai/ha) controlled almost all weeds in paddy field without causing any injury to rice and thus the combination would successfully be used as an oneshot herbicide in rice culture.
