진공포장 한 건조발효햄에 감마선을 조사 (0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10 kGy)하여 저장 3개월 동안 이화학적 품질 (육색, 지방산패도, 염기태 질소화합물, pH) 및 미생물 (총균, 유산균) 생육특성을 평가하였다. 감 마선 조사는 선량이 높을수록 시료의 표면 육색인 적색도 (a*)와 관능적 육색 및 기호도를 저하시켰다. 반면에 pH, 지방산패도, 염기태 질소화합물, 수분활성도에 큰 영향을 미치지 않은 것으로 나타났다. 미 생물적 측면에서는 감마선 조사 수준이 높을수록 미생물학적 품질이 개선되었다. 관능적 측면인 풍미에 서는 저장기간 및 처리구간에 유의적 차이는 나타나지 않았지만 육색 측면에서는 5 kGy 이상에서는 낮 은 평점을 나타내었다. 따라서 건조발효햄의 저장기간을 고려할 때 미생물학적 및 이화학적 품질은 5 kGy 수준의 감마선 조사에 의해 개선되는 것으로 나타났다.

A study was conducted to find out plant flora, the occurrence of insect pests and natural enemies in the fallow paddy fields of Jeonnam and Jeonbuk provinces from 2004 to 2005. They were identified as 124 plant species in 32 families, 58 insect pest species in 30 families and 11 natural enemy species in 9 families. Plant species belonging to Poaceae and Asteraceae were founded as 28 and 18 species, respectively, and dominated significantly among plants growing in the fallow paddy fields. In insect pests, Conocephalus chinensis, Nysius plebejus, Cletus punctiger, Eysarcoris aeneus, Nephotettix cincticeps, Laodelphax striatellus and Tipula sp. occurred significantly in the fallow paddy fields. Among them, occurrences of N. cincticeps and L. striatellus were low from May to June, and that of L. striatellus was high in August and September. In insect natural enemies, Coenagrion sp., Harmonia axyridis, Propylea japonica and Eristalis tenax occurred significantly in the fallow paddy fields.

The kairomonal activity of the aggregation pheromones of Riptortus clavatus for the egg parasitoid, Gryon japonicum , were investigated in soybean field. The parasitism rate of G. japonicum gradually decreased when the distances between pheromone traps and egg sites were increased from 0 to 15 m. The active distance of pheromone source for parasitoid attraction was estimated to be ca. 15 m. Under field conditions, the parasitoid wasp population peaked during the late August and early September, and the parasitism rate increased when the number of pheromone traps was increased from one to three per 165 ㎡. However, insecticide-treated plots, the level of parasitism recorded is relatively low. Sex ratios in field populations of G. japonicum were female-biased.

Economic injury levels and economic thresholds were estimated for the american serpentine leafminer (Liriomyza trifolii) on greenhouse eggplant. Liriomyza trifolii density was increased until the late June and decreased after the July in innoculation on may 17. Growth of an aerial plants and fruits were not different in treatment respectively. But total number of fruits and yields were decreased on higher inoculation density. Whereas the rate of yield loss was increased. The rates of damaged leaf by L. trifolii were increased on higher inoculation density and the peak was 65%. The number of commodity fruits and the rates of commodity fruit were become lower than non-treatment (72.2%). The rates of damaged leaf area were 5.3, 11.7, 19.7, 25.7% on inoculation densities and the rates of yield loss were 0.6, 4.8, 9.8, 14.7%, respectively. There existed close correlation between rate of yield loss and inoculation density (Y = 0.76779X + 0.298354, R² = 0.9599). Considerated of the results, the economic injury levels of L. trifolii on eggplant greenhouse was 6.1 adults per 4 plant and the economic thresholds was 4.9 adults per 4 plant

아메리카잎굴파리의 내부기생봉인 Neochrysocharis formosa의 산란과 기주체액섭취 선호성을 조사하였다. N. formosa는 기주유충의 몸 뒤쪽에 대부분 산란하였다. 온도 조건에 따른 일산란수와 일기주체액섭취수를 조사한 결과 온도가 높을수록 증가하는 경향이었으며 15, 20, 25, 3에서의 산란수와 체액섭취수의 비율은 각각 0.5, 0.9, 1.0, 1.0이었다. 항온조건하에서 N. formosa의 총산란수와 기주체액섭취수는 각각 176개 188.7개이었으며 산란수와 기주체액섭취수 비율은 0.9이었고 암컷 수명은 11.8일이었다. 산란과 기주체액섭취는 주로 아메리카잎굴파리 3령유층을 선호하였다.
