Fragaria ${\times}$ ananassa (Duch.) cultivars, 'Wongyo 3 115' a nd 'Wongyo 3 116', we re bre d as a n inte rme diate parent l ine using heterosis of $F_1$ hybrids in octoploid strawberry. These two new cultivars were developed as inbred lines ($S_9$ generation) propagated from both seed and runners/stolons. 'Wongyo 3115', an inbred line derived from the 'Benihoppe' cultivar, has a semi-upright plant shape showing a vigorless growth habit, weaker than the original 'Benihoppe' cultivar; it has early flower bud differentiation and produces 10 flowers per cluster when grown from healthy seed. 'Wongyo 3115' has low yields of conical type fruit with pink colored skin; average fruit weight is approximately 11 g. The important characteristic of 'Wongyo 3115' is its excellent fruit firmness, firmer than the original variety. 'Wongyo 3116', an inbred line derived from the 'Doyonoka' cultivar, has an upright plant shape, vigorless growth habit, weaker than that of the original 'Doyonoka' cultivar; it has early flower bud differentiation and produces 8 flowers per cluster when grown from healthy seed. 'Wongyo 3 116' has oblate type fruits with red skin and an ave rage weight of approximately 12 g. The important characteristics of 'Wongyo 3116' are excellent fruit shape and higher yield than other inbred lines, although it produces small fruits compared to the original cultivar. Both cultivars have excellent taste, high sugar/acid ratio, and good texture. In regards to disease and pest resistance, 'Wongyo 3115' and 'Wongyo 3116' have a tendency to be sensitive to powdery mildew, anthracnose and the two-spotted spider mite.

'Seeberry' is a short-day $F_1$ hybrid strawberry for seed propagation, that was released by the Protected Horticulture Experiment Station (RDA, Republic of Korea) in 2013. Inbred lines derived from domestic germplasms and selected varieties were used to develop this cultivar. 'Seeberry' originated from a cross of two inbred lines: a male parent 'Wongyo 3115' with high firmness and a female parent 'Wongyo 3116' with excellent fruit shape and high yield. 'Seeberry' cultivar should be grown with a crown diameter of over 10 mm to reveal its unique characteristics. 'Seeberry' has an upright plant shape with elliptic leaves, 12-15 flowers per cluster, vigorless growth habit, and average flower bud differentiation compared to vegetatively propagated cultivars. Fruits of 'Seeberry' are conical, having light skin color and approximately 15-16 g in average weight. Yield of this cultivar is about 92% lower than that of 'Akihime', but 'Seeberry' has excellent taste, sugar content of $9.7^{\circ}Bx$, acidity of 0.6%, and good texture. With regard to disease and pest resistance, 'Seeberry' is sensitive to powdery mildew, aphids, and the two-spotted spider mite, and is resistant to anthracnose.

A survey of pest occurrence and status of farmer's pest management was conducted at 45 cymbidium farms in 10 major cultivation areas in Korea. The pest species collected from the cymbidium farms were identified as follows: Tetranychus urticae Koch, Frankliniella intonsa Trybom, Pinnaspis aspidistrae Signoret, Incilaria confusa Cockarel, Halyomorpha brevis Walker, Myzus persicae S$\ddot{u}$lzer, and Aphis gossypii Glover, Coccus hesperidum Linnaeus, Thrips flavus Schrank, and Thrips tabaci Lindeman. The two-spotted spider mite, T. urticae, was the key pest in cymbidium production, occurring on 45 farms, followed by scales (20 farms), slugs (6), thrips (8), aphids (5), and stinkbug (1). PCR-RFLP of the rDNA ITS2 region revealed that two thrips species, Thrips flavus Schrank and Thrips tabaci Lindeman, occur on cymbidium farms. Therefore, it is necessary for the cymbidium farmers to establish an integrated pest management system to meet quarantine standards.

The systemic insecticides carbofuran $(Curaterr\; 3\%\; G)$ mephosfolan $(Cytrolane\; 2\%\; G)$ and disulfoton$(Disyston\; 5\%\; G)$ were evaluated in the field for conrol of some insects on soybeans when the insecticides were applied in seeding-pits at the rates of 4.6, 9.2 and 13.8 mg(a.i)/pit at the planting time. Control of the soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Matsumura) and the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus telarius(L.)) on soybeans was obtained for about 2 to 3 months, but their treatments were ineffective against the soybean moth (Grapholitha glycinivorella Matsumura). For the control of aphids and mites, disulfoton was better than carbofuran and mephosfolan. The insecticides slightly reduced the soybean stands, while the low-dose treatments of carbofuran slightly increased the stands. Carbofuran and mephosfolan caused severe phytotoxicity at the early stages, but disulfoton showed slight or negligible phytotoxicity. The phytotoxic symptoms in carbofuran and mephosfolan treatments were shelving the large number of brown or black-brown spots on the cotyledon and the first-leaves, and in addition to that showing necrosis along the leaf-margin. The symptoms in disulfoton treatments were slight withering along the leaf-margin of the first-leaves. In spite of good control of aphids and mites, there were no differences in soybean yield.

Thirty-three species of insect pests including of two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae Koch, and air-breathing land snail, Acusta despecta Sowerby, were observed on mulberry for producing mulberry fruits in Jeonbuk province from 2015 to 2016. Of these, 8 species of insect pests, including of mulberry thrips, Pseudodendrothrips mori Niwa, are regarded as major insect pests. Of the 25 species observed before harvesting, 6 species-P. mori, Anomoneura mori, Pseudaulacaspis pentagona, Baris deplanata, Menophra atrilineata and T. urticae-are regarded as major insect pests. In contrast, of the 20 species observed after harvesting, 5 species-P. mori, P. pentagona, Glyphodes pyloalis Walker, Hyphantria cunea Drury and T. urticae-are regarded as major insect pests. Eight of the major insect pest species and nine other insect pest species-including Hexcacentrus unicolor Serville, Malcus japonicus Ishihara et Hasegawa, Halyomorpha halys stal, Xylosandrus germanus Blandford, four species of Repidoptera (Bombyx mandarina Moore, Euproctis subflava Bremer, Acronicta major Bremer, Agrotis trifurca Butler), and Acusta despecta Sowerby-were observed at all sites studied, although occurrence of the insect pests observed on mulberry varied from site to site.

Agricultural pests, diamondback moth (Plutella xylostella), green peach aphid (Myzus persicae) and two-spotted spider mite (Teyranychus urticae), are becoming major pests in human dwellings in a variety of ways across the world. For management of these pests, the essential oils of Coriandrum sativum and Cinnamomum cassia prepared by steam distillation, hexane extraction and supercritical extraction methods were evaluated for the insecticidal effects. Using the contact bioassay, the $LD_{50}$ value of C. sativum oil by steam distillation extraction method was $30.59{\mu}g/cm^2$ against M. persicae adults. The $LD_{50}$ values of C. cassia oils prepared by steam distillation and hexane extraction methods were 5.96 and $4.64{\mu}g/cm^2$, respectively, against T. urticae adults, and $LD_{50}$ value of the essential oil by supercritical extraction method was $6.50{\mu}g/cm^2$ against M. persicae adults. This study showed that C. sativum and C. cassia oils could be an effective natural acaricide and insecticide against agricultural pests.

Phenylformamidine derivatives are well known as insecticides for their specific activity against the insects. It has now been established that they show insecticidal activity as agonists on the octopamine receptor. In order to get a highly active compound we have intensively exploited fluorine substituted-aromatic formamidines possessing N-dialkylaminosulfeny group. Up to now, there are several candidates we found: N-(dialkylamino)sulfenyl-N-methyl-N'-(4-fluoro-2-methylphenyl)formamidines. The miticidal activity of Compound 29 show five-fold higher than Amitraz.

Selection of the optimal culture medium and evaluation of the antimicrobial activity against various phytopathogens were performed for four entomopathogenic fungal isolates with excellent insecticidal and antimicrobial activity against the two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus urticae), green peach aphid (Myzus persicae), and gray mold (Botrytis cinerea). The optimal medium was selected by measuring the amount of blastospore production and the antifungal activity of the culture medium. On the basis of these experiments, GY medium was selected for Beauveria bassiana 2R-3-3-1 and Metarhizium anisopliae 4-2, SD3, and PDB medium for B. bassiana SD15. The antimicrobial activity test against other phytopathogens indicated that all four isolates showed high antifungal activities against Colletotrichum acutatum and Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. However, for Phytophthora capsici and C. fructicola, only M. anisopliae SD3 showed a high antifungal activity against P. capsici, and the other three isolates had little activity. Antibacterial activity against Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis was high in two isolates of M. anisopliae but not in two isolates of B. bassiana. Thus, it was confirmed that entomopathogenic fungi effective for pest control could be effectively used as a control agent for various plant diseases.

Anthocorid bugs (Orius spp.) are known as polyphagous predators preying on thrips, aphids, mites, eggs of small insects and whiteflies. This study was conducted to investigate the nym-phal development, survival rate, longevity of Orius sauteri adult and oviposition, when nymphs of western flower thrips (Frankliniella occidentalis) and cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii), and eggs of two-spotted spider mite (Tetranychus uritcae) were fed as diets. Nymphal development of female/male O. sauferi fed with F. occidentalis, A. gossypii and T urticae took 12.2/12.8, 13.0/l3.2, and 17.9/17.8 days at 27$^{\circ}C$, respectively, Survival rates during nymphal development were 96.4, 78.4, 73.8%, longevity of female/male adults were 55.9/51.0, 30.2/30.8, and 25.8/25.1 days, and daily oviposition were 5.6, 4.1, and 1.9 eggs, respectively. Oviposition of O. sauteri fed with F. occidentalis usually began 3-4 days after emergence at 27$^{\circ}C$, and reached at its peak of 7-8 eggs female day 20-40 days after emergence.

These experiments were conducted to investigate the ecological characteristics of Amblyseius womersleyi Schica,which was biological agent in the integrated management of tea red spider mite, Tetranychus kanzawai Kishida.At four constant temperatures of 15, 20, 25, and 30$^{\circ}$C, the periods of A. womersleyi from egg to adult emergencewere 22.8, 9.6, 4.8, and 3.6 days, respectively. Developmental threshold and effectively cumulative degree-day from egg to adult emergence were 12.7"C and 61.4DD, respectively. Preoviposition periods of A.womersleyi were shorter than oviposition and postoviposition periods. The number of eggs laid per female was21.7, 28.1, 34.2, and 48.0 at the respective temperatures. The intrinsic rates of increase were estimated to be 0.064, 0.139, 0.349, and 0.402; the mean generation times were 36.0, 19.3, 8.6, and 7.7 days; the populationdoubling times were 10.8, 5.0, 2.0, and 1.7 days, respectively. A. womersleyi overwintered on green weeds, fallenleaves and in the soil surface as adult females. A. womersleyi gravid female consumed 3.0, 4.9, 15.7, and19.4 eggs of T. kanzawai per day at 15, 20, 25, and 30$^{\circ}$C, respectively. A. womersleyi protonymph consumed4.6 eggs, deutonymph 6.3 eggs, and female during oviposition consumed 19.4 eggs, and 6.8 eggs of T. kanzawaiduring postoviposition per day at 30$^{\circ}$C. at 30$^{\circ}$C.
