흰빛잎마름병의 병원균(Xanthomonas oryzae)을 이용하여 항생제의 일종인 Agrepto에 대한 약제저항성형성을 조사하기 위하여 세대 경과에 따른 약제처리효과를 Optical Density로 간접 측정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 1. Agrepto는 액체배양기에 첨가되었을 때 처리 제1세대 30ppm까지의 낮은 농도 처리에서도 세균증식에 현저한 저지 효과를 나타내었다. 2. 동일농도의 4세대간 처리에서 세대의 경과에 따라 세균 증식량이 현저히 증가하였고 증식율은 10ppm 처리구에서 보다 30ppm 처리구에서 더욱 뚜렷하였다. 3. 전세대 20ppm 처리구의 선발집단의 경우 세대가 경과할수록 더욱 내성의 증가 현상을 나타내었다. 4. 고농도 처리구에서 선발된 세균이 저농도처리구에서 선발된 세균의 경우보다 저항성 형성이 현저히 증가되는 경향을 보였다.

The experiments were conducted to examine the formation of chemical resistance of Xanthomonas oryze, the causal organism of rice bacterial leaf blight, to Agrepto in the succeeding geerations. The measurements of the bacterial growth were determined with the optical density as indirect method, and the results obtained were summarized as follows. 1. The Agrepto was effective in hindering the bacterial growth in the treatment of first generation, which was added in the broth even as low concentration as 30ppm. 2. when the successive four generations were treated with same concentrations, the bacterial growth increased conspicuously with succeeding generations and this phenomenon showed remarkable in the plots treated with 30ppm than in that of 10ppm. 3. When selections were repeated at treatment of 20 ppm, increasing the concentrations of the treatment in successive generations, the resistance increased with succeeding generations. 4. There was a tendency to acquire the higher rate of resistance in the progenies which selected from the treated plot of higher concentrations in previous generation than that of low concentrations.
