The occurrence characteristics of major insect pests infesting organically cultivated maizes, millets, sorghums, and soybeans were surveyed from 2015 to 2017 in paddy-upland rotation and continuing upland fields. In grain fields, the main damage of maizes and sorghums was caused by Ostrinia furnaclais and Helicoverpa spp. The occurrence pattern of O. furnacalis was 3 times and that of Helicoverpa spp. was 3-4 times. In soybean fields, Riptortus clavatus was the most important, but the pest was not observed at geumhwajaerae and bongeui varieties. Interestingly, the more high the invasive rate of lepidopteran larvae was, the more low the yield of maizes and sorghums was. The surveyed results indicate that the focused management on lepidopteran larvae or hemipteran pests in maizes and sorghums or soybeans cultivated in paddy-upland rotation and continuing upland fields is an important strategy.

답전윤환 옥수수 8품종 및 수수 7품종 재배포장에서 조명나방 발생 및 수확 특성을 조사하였다. 매주 이뤄진 성충 트랩 조사에서 조명나방 밀도는 정식 2주 후부터 급격히 증가하여 6월 중순에 최성기에 도달 후 감소하다 9월 초 소폭 증가 후 감소하였다. 조명나방 유충에 의한 피해주 수와 침입공수를 매주 옥수수 미백2호와 대학찰 그리고 수수 남풍찰과 동안메를 대상으로 조사하였다. 그 결과, 대학찰과 미백2호에서 피해주가 각 20주당 19주와 18주였고, 주당 침입공수도 6월말부터 꾸준히 증가하여 수확기인 7월말에 대학찰은 주당 평균 1.8개, 미백2호는 1.4개로 나타 났다. 수확기에 옥수수 8품종에 대한 피해율과 침입공수를 조사한 결과, 대학찰 94%, 미백2호 92%, 일미찰 71%, 얼룩찰1호 64%, 찰옥4호 54%, 미흑찰 52%, 흑점2호 45%이었다. 주당 침입공수는 일미찰이 1.21개였고 나머지 품종들에서는 1개 미만이었다. 또한 옥수수 각 품종별로 이삭 10개씩 3반복으로 조명나방 유충에 의한 이삭 피해율을 조사한 결과, 일미찰 50%, 흑진주찰 40%, 대학찰 37%, 미흑찰과 흑점2호 13%, 얼룩찰 7% 그리고 미백2호 3% 등이었다. 수수 주요 재배품종들인 남풍찰 및 동안메는 정식 후 2개월까지 20주 평균 4주 미만으로 피해를 입다가 8월 초 에 피해가 급증하여 평균 피해주는 남풍찰이 13주, 동안메는 9.2주였고 주 당 침입공수도 8월 초부터 나타나기 시작해 남풍찰은 주당 평균 1.06 개, 동안메는 주당 평균 0.46개였다. 수확기 수수 품종별 조명나방에 의한 피해율을 조사한 결과, DS-202 95%, 목탁수수 76%, 소담찰 75%, 남 풍찰 67%, 앉은뱅이수수 57%, 동안메 46% 그리고 황금찰 34%로 7품종 모두 조명나방에 의해 높은 피해를 입었다. 침입공수 또한 피해율에 비 례해서 DS-202(1.7개), 목탁수수(1.4개), 소담찰(1.3개), 남풍찰(1.1개), 앉은뱅이수수(1개), 동안메(0.5개) 그리고 황금찰(0.4개)로 관찰되었다. 한편, 답전윤환 옥수수 및 수수 포장에서 조명나방 피해와 수확 특성은 인과관계를 보이지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이상의 결과는 답전윤환 옥수수 및 수수 재배포장에서 조명나방의 관리대책을 구축하는데 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Occurrence characterization of oriental corn borer, Ostrinia furnacalis, in a paddy-upland rotation field for 8 maize and 7 sorghum varieties was surveyed. In a monitoring study using a pheromone trap carried out from 15 May to 10 September, the density of O. furncalis adults increased rapidly from about 2 weeks after corn planting and reached the highest density at mid June. After that, their density was decreased and increased a little at earlier September. In a survey carried out at harvest period using 8 corn varieties, the damage ratio was Daehakchal (94%), Mibaek 2 (92%), Ilmichal (71%), Eolrukchal 1 (64%), Chalok 4 (54%), Miheukchal (52%), Heugjeom 2 (45%). The number of invasive pore per Ilmichal stem by O. furnacalis larvae was 1.4 and those of the others was less than 1.0. In another survey carried out at harvest period using 7 sorghum varieties, their damage ratios were DS-202 (95%), Moktaksusu (76%), Sodamchal (75%), Nampungchal (67%), Anzunbaengisusu (57%), Donganme (46%), and Hwanggeumchal (34%). The damage of sorghum varieties was much higher and severer than that of corn by O. furnacalis larvae. These results may be useful for the establishment of a management strategy to control oriental corn borer in paddy-upland rotation fields for maize and sorghum.

This study was performed to evaluate antimicrobial resistance of food-borne pathogens isolated from retail meat in Korea. A total of 157 samples of beef, pork, and chicken were collected and analyzed for E. coli, Salmonella, Campylobacter. Resistances to tetracycline were declined in accord with reduced usage of tetracycline in live stock production. E. coli stains from chicken meat had higher multi-drug resistance ratio than strains from other meat. One extended spectrum beta lactamase (ESBL) producing E. coli and two ESBL producing Salmonella were identified in this study. ESBL producing Salmonella strains were confirmed to carry CTX-M-1 type genes.
