Fly ash consists of various metal oxides which can remove SO2 gas by the catalyst effect. When fly ash is added in the preparation process of pitch-based activated carbon, the pitch particles aggregate and fly ash is embedded in the activated carbon. To increase SO2 gas removal performance, activated carbon was prepared by surface-treated fly ash and petroleum-based pitch. Carboxyl groups were introduced into the fly ash by malic acid treatment. The introduced carboxyl groups acted as an activation agent to create micropore around the fly ash, and created micropores were exposed to the fly ash outside of the activated carbon. The exposed fly ash increased removal amount of SO2 gas by a catalytic effect of the metal oxides. The SO2 gas removal performance improved by 34% because of the catalyst effect of the exposed fly ash and improvement in the micropore structure in the activated carbon.

The genus Aphidius is the most commercially available species in greenhouse control, especially for aphids. Although twelve species were recorded in Korea, we collected 7 species including 2 unrecorded and 1 unidentified species. We aligned 16 sequences, except for duplicates, from 31 individuals of 14 species including GenBank sequences, and made phylogenetic tree based on Neighbor-Joining method. Surprisingly, 3 species were clustered into a clade and some species was not monophyletic. In this study, we reconstructed phylogenetic tree of Korean Aphidius species using COI marker, and compared them with GenBank sequences. In addition, we try to experiment a new marker and check its ability of discrimination.

One species of the genus Ephedrus Haliday, 1833 (Hymenoptera: Braconidae: Aphidinae) is recognized in this study. The Ephedrus genus is known to 72 species worldwide. Of these, 16 species were reported in Korea. This genus is parasitic to groups of aphids and their relatives. Additionally, this genus is very similar to genus Toxares Haliday, 1840 in the morphology, but there is no difficulty in sympathy because there are certain morphological differences. In this study, Ephedrus blattnyi Starý, 1973 is recognized for the first time in South Korea. Information on this species has not been widely known yet. Descriptions, diagnosis distribution and illustration are provided.

최근 기온이 높아지면서 강원도 대관령 감자 재배지로 날아오는 진딧물 발생이 늘어나고 있다. 그 중 복숭아혹진딧물(Myzus persicae)은 전 세계적으로 분포하고 경제적으로 중요한 해충으로, 감자, 고추 등 노지작물에 흡즙을 통한 바이러스 매개하고 생육저하를 일으키는 피해를 주고 있다. 본 연구는 복숭아혹진딧물의 지리적 차이에 따른 집단의 유전적 관계 규명을 통해 기주식물, 메타집단 등의 군집구조 및 발생패턴을 분석하고, 이러한 요인으로 인한 진딧물 집단의 분산 및 이주 관계를 추정하였다. 최종적으로 개체들 간의 집단유전학적 관계규명을 통해 이들의 확산과 비래 양상을 규명하고자 한다.
