키틴생합성저해제인 diflubenzuron을 톱다리개미허리노린재(Riptortus clavatus Thunberg)에 미량국소처리하였을 때 충태 및 영기에 따른 약제의 감수성차이와, 종령약충 처리후 우화율 및 우화성충에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Diflubenzuron은 살람효과를 보였으며 산란후 12시간내의 알은 산란후 48~60시간의 알보다 감수성이 높았으나, 알의 나이에 관계없이 처리된 알의 배는 정상적으로 발육하였다. 영기별 감수성은 영기가 진행될수록 낮아져 1령약충이 2령에 비하여 1.5배, 3령약충에 비하여 18.2배, 4령약충에 비하여 39.4배, 5령약충에 비하여 42.4배 높은 감수성을 나타내었다. 종령약충에 처리하였을 때 우화율과 우화성충의 체중, 수명 및 산란율은 현저히 감소하였다.

Riptortus clavatus, one of the many insects in major crops, damages pods and seeds, which reduces seed vigor and viability in soybeans. This study was conducted to examine the effect of diversely damaged seeds by R. clavatus on seed germination and seedling emergence and to determine the association of damaged seed with quality and yield of soybean sprouts. All seeds damaged by R. clavatus significantly (P<0.05) reduced seed vigor as measured by the rates of seed germination, germination speed, and seedling emergence. Mean seed germination rate of non-damaged seeds in sprout-soybean varieties was 97.8%, whereas the rates of seeds damaged at different levels, 31-50% and 51-80%, were 23.0 and 5.4%, respectively. The rates of seedling rot and abnormal, incomplete germination significantly (P<0.05) increased as the amount of seeds damaged by R. clavatus increased to 5, 10 and 15% against the total seeds for sprout production. Yield of soybean sprouts from seeds damaged at different levels decreased up to 13% as compared to that in normal seeds. In customer preferences on soybean sprout produce, 84% of customers participated in survey preferred to purchase sprouts from seeds with 5% of damaged seeds, but sprouts produced from seeds with 15% of damaged seeds were intended to purchase only by 22% of the customers. Areas of the seed damaged by R. clavatus were readily infected by pathogens as the seed germinated, resulted in deteriorated quality and reduced yield of sprout produce.
