The Laodelphax striatellus(SBPH: Small Brown Plant Hopper) is known to be not overwintering in South Korea and migrate from China to Korea every year by now, but these days many evidence support the possibility of SBPH overwintering. These insects do considerable damage to the rice production in Korea. If they will come from China, identification of origin of migration is very important to make countermeasure against SBHP outbreak. So we want to know exact the route of long-distance migration of them. In this study, we have developed some microsatellite markers for basic population genetic analysis of SBPH. We will show the genetic characteristics of them
