벼 해충인 이화명나방(Chilo suppressalis)(포충나방과) 유충을 사육하기 위해 맥아, 콩, 옥수수, 효모, 설탕, 카세인, 콜레스테롤, 베타시토 스테롤, 거대억새 건조 가루를 주 영양성분으로 구성한 인공사료를 개발하였다. 25°C와 광주기 15:9 시간 명:암 조건에서 갓부화 1령 유충을 개체별로 성충 우화 때까지 사육하였을 때, 용화율이 82.2%, 우화율이 98.6%였다. 유충 발육기간은 암컷이 평균 34.6일, 수컷이 31.0일이었고, 번데기 기간은 암컷이 8.9일, 수컷이 9.7일로 성별 간에 유의한 차이가 있었다. 번데기 무게는 암컷이 평균 75.0 mg, 수컷이 57.0 mg으로 암컷이 통계적으로 유의하게 무거웠다.

An artificial diet containing wheat germ, soybean, corn, yeast, sucrose, casein, cholesterol, β-sitosterol, and dry Miscanthus sacchariflorus stem powder was developed for rearing Chilo suppressalis (Crambidae) larvae. Neonate larvae were individually raised on the diet till adult emergence at 25°C and 15:9 h light:dark photoperiod. In the results, the pupation and the emergence rates were 82.2% and 98.6%, respectively. The mean developmental periods of female and male larvae were 34.6 days and 31.0 days, respectively, whereas the pupal periods of female and male were 8.9 days and 9.7 days, respectively. Those periods were significantly different between genders. The mean pupal weights of female and male were 75.0 mg and 57.0 mg, respectively, with significant difference.
