whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) have a wide host range including cucumber, tomato, and pepper, resulting in loss of crop yield. In this study, we tested larvicidal efficacy of several on-the-market environment–friendly agricultural materials (EFAM) to select the effective products after the target pests were stabilized in indoor rearing condition. The developmental periods of two whiteflies are as follows: in the case of T. vaporariorum, egg duration is 9.6 days, and nymph is 18.9 days, and in the case of B.tabaci, egg durationis 7.4 days, and nymph is 15.2 days under 25℃ with relative humidity (RH) of 60±5% and a photoperiod of 16L : 8D. The total period of T. vaporariorum as 5 days longer than B. tabaci. Among 22 EFAMs six products showed more than 60% of insecticide efficacy for against T. vaporariorum BTVB, BTVD, BTVG, BTVL, BTVM, and BTVS. On the other hand, seven EFAM products including showed over 60% of insecticide efficacy against B. tabaci BTVD, BTVG, BTVK, BTVL, BTVM, BTVN, and BTVU. In the case of Spodptera litura previously, xxEFAMs were tesed against 2nd instar S.litura, and EFAMs were found to have more than 90% efficacy. Test of these six EFAMs against entire larval stages were performed in this study. Although some of these products showed still more than 90% of insecticidal efficacy against up to 3rd instar larvae, the efficacy of these EFAMs sharply decreased as ages increase, result is less than 60% of efficacy of the products at most. This result indicates the difficulty to control S. litura with the on-the-market EFAMs alone under economic injury level. Collectively, it is required to find more EFAMs and find alternative method to control those insect pests tested in this study.

The turnip aphid is a worldwide pest, damaging mainly to crucifers. In order to understand the life parameters of Lipaphis erysimi for the eventual goal of control, the developmental periods, survival rates, lifespan, and fecundity of the species were investigated under five temperature regimes (15℃ - 35℃). Furthermore, the efficacy of several environment-friendly agricultural materials (EFAMs) that are on the market was subjected to test in order to obtain further accurate information. The developmental period of the turnip aphid nymph was longest at 15ºC as 16.9 days, shortened as temperature goes up to 25ºC (5.4 days), and then somewhat increased at 30ºC (5.9 days), suggesting that the most efficient temperature for nymphal development could be around 25ºC. Mortality of the nymphal turnip aphid was obvious at 35ºC, whereas it was minimal at other temperature schemes. The longevity of adults shortened as temperature goes up to 30ºC. In particular, the maximum lifespan for adults continued for 55 days at 15ºC, but shortened to 21 days at 30ºC. The total fecundity per day was 35.7 at 15ºC, 81 at 20ºC, 64.2 at 25ºC, and 6.6 individuals at 30ºC, showing the highest fecundity at 20ºC. After the turnip aphids were successfully stabilized in indoor environment the insecticidal activity was tested and mortality was determined 12, 24, 36, and 48 hrs after EFAMs are treated. Several on-the-market EFAMs showed more than 90% of insecticidal activity within 24 hrs or 48 hrs, but a few showed less than 90% activity, signifying importance of selection of proper EFAMs.
