Residual effect of imidacloprid on brown planthopper (BPH) and residues on rice plant were investigated in pot and field tests. Residual effect (showing 100% mortality) of imidacloprid of granule formulation on the BPH lasted for 40 days at a recommended dose (0.3 kg a.i./ha) and for 30 and 20 days at a half and a quarter of the recommended dose, respectively. In case of liquid formulation of imidacloprid, the residual effect lasted for 40 days at both recommended dose (0.032 kg a.i.1ha) and a half of it, and lasted for 30 days at a quarter of it. The next generation formation of BPH was throughly depressed by the imidacloprid application at the former generation. This result supports the residual effect of imidacloprid on BPH. Seed dressing (3 ghg) showed insecticidal activity (96.7% mortality) for 55 days after treatment. When granule formulation of imidacloprid was applied to soil at a recommended dose , imidacloprid residue in leaves of rice plant increased up to 0.46 ppd for 6 days and then decreased to 0.09 ppm on 40 days after application. Residue of imidacloprid in leaves of rice plant increased up to about 0.23 ppm and about 0.2 ppm for 6 days when applied at a half and a quarter of the recommended dose, respectively and after that they decreased.

In recent years, many agricultural scientists are studying on eco-friendly farming methods. Among of lots of the methods, the natural insecticides are highly motivated and interested due to their safety and biodegradable issues, and readily available source of bioinsecticides. In this study, the crude extract of custard apple (Annona reticulata L.) seed and its three fractions which were separated based on polarity indexes were examined for their insecticidal activities against Myzus persicae Sulzer and Nilaparvata lugens S.. The crude extract (Aceton/MeOH) showed strong insecticidal activities against both insects at 3.00 mg/mL ($LD_{50}$=0.45mg/mL for M. persicae S. and 1.42 mg/mL for N. lugens S.). Furthermore, simple fractionation with hexane, chloroform, and water lead to increase three-folds insecticidal activity on chloroform fraction ($LD_{50}$=0.13mg/mL for M. persicae S. and 1.14 mg/mL for N. lugens S.). The results suggest that A. reticulata extracts might be used to control for M. persicae effectively.

Brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens Stål (Hemiptera: Delphacidae), is one of the most important migratory pests damaging rice in Korea. It invades annually from tropical and subtropical areas via continental air streams. It is necessary to determine the resistance levels of rice varieties in order to control efficiency. The honeydew excretion, development, and reproduction of the migratory BPH were studied by region in a laboratory at $25{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ and $65{\pm}5%\;RH$ and a 16L: 8D photoperiodism conducted on three BPH resistant genes: Bph1, Bph2, and Bph18. The information obtained was reported using the jackknife method, and we created life table statistics accordingly. The feeding amount of Bph1 resistant gene was lower than that of resistant genes. The developmental periods of immature stages ranged from $13.7{\pm}0.10d$ on Bph2 (Namhae, 2015) to $18.5{\pm}1.06d$ on Bph2 (Sacheon, 2016). Reproductive period and female longevity were longest on the non-resistant genes, Bph2 and Bph18 (except 1980s), and the highest fecundity of N. lugens was observed on the two BPH resistant genes. Highest net reproductive rates ($R_0$) were calculated on Bph2 by region. Intrinsic rates of population increase ($r_m$) showed a difference in resistant genes by region. These population parameters showed that migratory regions and biological characteristics of N. lugens vary annually.

Rural Development Administration (RDA) is promoting the AFACI IPM (Asian Food & Agricultural Cooperation Initiative program). AFACI consist of 12 countries including Bangladesh, Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam and so on. The main goal of the AFACI IPM project is 'Establishment of an international cooperative network for the best management of migratory rice planthoppers and setting data-base of pests occurrence information. As a result of the suvey, Planthoppers were increasing all the way from tillering stage to ripe stage and do not appear to be peak of one or two like korea case. In detail, 1,673 of BPH (Nilaparvata lugens) occurred in survey site of Svay Reang, Cambodia, followed by 1.237 at Dobila, Bangladesh. In the case of White backed planthopper (Sogatella furcifera), 1,163 of WBPH occurred in survey site of Dobila, Bangladesh and 849 WBPH were collected at Hamkuria, Bangladesh. It is expected to verify the occurrence and movement patterns of hoppers among member countries in the future.

Extracts of 43 species of plants were tested for their insecticidal and acaricidal activities against six species of insect pests and one mite species. The methanol extract of Ginkgo biloba leaves selectively was found to have potent insecticidal activity against Nilaparvata lugens (Stal), whereas steam distillate of Thujopsis dolabarata var. hondai sawdust showed potent insecticidal activities with a broad spectrum. The methanol extract of Pinus densiflora leaves and steam distillate of T. dolabrata var. hondai sawdust exhibited potent activities against Tetranychus urticae (Koch).

It has been documented that the resistance to planthoppers is attributed to the feeding preference of the insects. This might be related to difference in the amount of feeding plant sap between resistant and susceptible hosts. In this aspect, this study was conducted to verify it and to develop an effective screening method for resistance to planthoppers by tracer technique. An effective P-32 labelling of rice seedlings at $2\~3$ leaf stage was dipping the roots in concentration of $0.1{\mu}Ci/ml$ solution for 48 hours. Radioactivity was significantly higher in planthopers fed on susceptible variety for 48 hours as compared to those fed on resistant variety. Radioactivity of adults was higher than that of nymphs and also higher in female than male. The results were highly correlated to that indicated by the feeding preference of the insects and therefore, considered to be valid for a screening technique.

To analyze the inheritance of emergence rate of brown plant hopper (Nilaparvata lugens) biotypes, six crosses among biotype 1, biotype 2 induced by rearing on Mudgo and biotype 3 these on ASD 7, were made. Each generation $(P_1,\;P_2,\;F_l\; F_2,\;BC_1,\;BC_2)$ of each cross was fed on the rice seedlings of Mudgo and ASD 7 varieties. The emergence rate of biotpe 2 on Mudgo was controlled by the one incomplete dominant gene in $biotype\;l{\times}biotype$ 2 coross, however, that of biotype 3 on ASD 7 was controlled by one incomplete recessive gene in $biotype\;l{\times}biotype$ 3 cross. The genes involved in biotype 2 and biotype 3 were not identical, however, their allelic relations are not clear.

These studies were conducted to investigate the biological effects of buprofezin 25% WP on the adult of the brown planthopper (BPH) and its control effects on the BPH population, when buprofezin was treated on different days after the introduction of the BPH adult to the potted rice. Also age structures of the BPH population at the time of buprofezin treatment were observed. The results were as follows: Buprofezin (7.0 g a.i./l0 a) could reduce the longevity and fecundity of the newly emerged female but did not affect the biology of older female, and it did not affect the biology of the male. The larval densities at the time of buprofezin treatment was reduced to nearly zero after treatment. The higher the residual effect and the proportion of larvae at the time of buprofezin treatment were, the higher its con¬trol effect on the BPH population was. In case of buprofezin 7.0 g a.i./l0a treatment, the time interval of treatment that could show the highest control effect was about 10 days (from 18 days after the adult introduction to the adult emergence days of next generation).

The present work was designed to study the yield loss on rice at different appearance days of hopperburn caused by the brown planthopper(BPH), Nilaparvata lugens Stal, when rice plants were infested with BPH on booting and heading stages. Dead plants were colleted from 23 days after heading stage with intervals of 5 days. Yield losses by the initation of BPH infestation was greater at tooting than at heading stage. Compared to the uninfested plot, there was a reduction in 1,000 grain weight and filled grain percentage at both stages. Positive relationship was observed between rice yield(Y) and the number of days from heading to the appearance of the hopper-burn. Regression equations calculated were; for BPH feeding from booting $\hat{Y}(g)=10.145X-16.374(r=0.9726^{**})$, and for BPH feeding from heading $\hat{Y}(g)=9.792X+26.936(r=0.8850^{**})$.

Biotypes of the brown planthopper(BPH), Nilaparvata lugens St l, population migrated from maninand China in to southern coastal regions of Korea were investigated in 1985-1987 by honeydew excretion test using Korean cultvars,, 'Milyang 23'(no resistant gene), 'Cheongcheo-ngboy'(bph 1 gene), 'Milyang 63'(bph 2 gene) and 'Gayabyeo'(bph 1 and bph 2 gene). There was a correlation between the amount of honeydew excreted and the ability of each biotype to infest resistant cultivars: 'Milyang 23' with no resistant gene was highiy susceptible to bioty-pe-1, 2 and 3 ; 'cheongcheongbyeo' with resistant bph 1 was susceptible to biotype-2: and 'Milyang 63' with resistant bph 2 gene was highiy resistant to biotype-1, 2 and 3. Percent biotype dis-tribution of the female BPH collected in the southern coastal regions of Korea showed that in 1985, 1986 and 1987, the BPH biotype-1 was predominant accounting for 64.7%, 61.2% and 57.9%, respectivley, whereas bitype-2 was 22.0%, 21.9% and 29.7%, and biotype-3 was 13.3%, 17.0% and 12.6%, repestively.
