낭충봉아부패병에 저항성인 신품종 토종벌을 농업과학원에서 시험재료로 제공받아 일반 농가에서 사육중인 일반벌과 비교하였다. 꿀벌 수밀력을 조사한 결과 일벌 개체당 수밀력은 비저항성 계통보다 저항성계통이 15% 높았으며, 화분채집량은 저항성계통에서는 358mg, 비저항성 계통은 330.3mg으로 저항성계통이 비저항성계통보다 8.4%의 높은 화분채집력을 보였다. 질병저항성을 알아보기 위해 봉개유충 청소행동 평가에서 8시간 후 저항성계통에 서는 51.3%, 비저항성계통에서는 50.7%이었으며, 24시간 후에는 두계통 모두 98.7~100%의 사충 제거율을 보였다. 봉군발육조사에서는 저항성 계통의 경우, 일벌, 유충, 번데기의 수가 비저항성계통에 비하여 41%, 7%, 73% 로 발육이 우수하였다.
Hermetia illucens is one of many of solider flies and the species was decomposing ability to food waste, livestock feces and so on. Specially, the study was conducted to investigated of artificial feeding using the livestock feces, because of easy to get and see in a rural areas. But, comparing food waste with livestock feces, the growth character of H. illucens was generally small size and the growth period is longer than feeding food waste. In order this problem, the experiment was performed by mixing sugar 1%, 5%, 10%, 20% , which can accelerate the degradation of the pig and cattle feces during the 0, 3, 5, 7 days. As a result, when the width and length of H. illucens were compared by sugar mixing and fermentation period, they was no significant difference. Decomposing ability of a larvae were 0.44g with cattle feces+sugar 5% than 20% and were 0.64g with pig feces+sugar 20% than 5%.
