Though quarantine use of methyl bromide(MB) is currently permitted in Korea, there has been phasing out and considering ban in many countries due to their ozone depletion properties. VapormateTM, a new gas formulation of ethyl formate(EF) with carbon dioxide, and VivakilTM, a new gas formulation of phosphine(PH3) with carbon dioxide, are MB alternative fumigants to methyl bromide(MB). For applying on import commodities, the efficacy of EF and PH3 was evaluated for 2hr fumigation on egg, nymph and adult stage of citrus mealybug(CMB), Planococcus citri, at two different temperatures(8, 13℃). The CT(Concentration X Time) product of EF to be expect 99% mortality to egg, nymph and adult stage of CMB were 108.3, 22.4 32.4 gh/m3 at 8℃ and 83.2, 25.1, 29.8 gh/m3 at 13℃, respectively. The CT product of PH3 gas to be expect 99% mortality to nymph and adult stage of CMB were 6.50, 2.55 gh/m3 at 8℃ and 3.72, 3.64 gh/m3 at 13℃, respectively. However, PH3 gas applied at high CT(4.2 gh/m3) for 2hr fumigation was not enough to obtain CT to egg stage of CMB at both temperature conditions. These efficacy data based on CT will be useful to predict the CT model in scale-up fumigation at diverse practical conditions.

본 연구는 레몬과즙의 헤스페리딘 함량이 가장 많은 수확시기 지표를 결정하기 위해 수관내부 및 외부에 착과된 과실에 대해 시기별 헤스페리딘 함량을 착색시기 및 과중과 연관시켜 평가했다. 그 함량은 과실생장에 따라 달랐으며 수관내부 및 외부에 있어 착색이 막 시작되는 개화 후 162일과 176일째에 가장 많았다. 그리고 수관외부가 내부보다 많았다. 이상의 결과는 레몬과실의 헤스페리딘 함량이 가장 많은 적정 수확 시기는 착색이 막 시작이 되고 과실의 생장이 멈추기 직전이라는 것을 나타냈다.

본 연구는 차나무(Camellia sinensis L.)와 동백나무(C.japonica L.), 제주지역의 주요 과수작물인 귤나무(Citrus unshiu M.) 잎을 대상으로 엽록소형광과 CO2 흡수능을 비교 분석하여 탄소흡수원으로서의 가치를 평가하고자하였다. 차나무의 CO2 고정율은 같은 과의 동백나무보다 높고 과수작물인 귤나무와 유사하였다. 기공전도도 (gs)는 3종 모두 새벽에는 높고 이후 저녁 시간까지 계속하여 감소하였다. 엽육 내 CO2 농도 (Ci)는 3종 모두 새벽(06:00)에 높고 낮에 감소하였다가 저녁에 다시 증가하는 경향을 보였으며, 잎의 증산율 (E)은 낮 시간에 높아졌다가 저녁에 감소하였다. 차나무에서 광계II의 광화학적 효율(Fv/Fm)은 낮시간에 다소 낮아졌다가 저녁에 다시 증가하는 양상을 보였다. 이러한 낮시간의 Fv/Fm 감소는 광억제의 결과로 보이며 그 감소폭이 동백나무보다 적어 빛이나 고온 등에 내성을 가지고 있음을 알 수 있다. 엽면적당 활성상태의 반응중심의 상대적 밀도를 의미하는 RC/CS는 3종 모두 낮시간에 감소하였다. ABS/RC, TRo/RC, ETo/RC와 DIo/RC는 차나무와 동백나무에서 낮시간에 증가하였으며, 귤나무에서도 낮시간에 증가하였으나 유의성이 없는 것으로 나타났다. 일동화율은 차나무가 320.1 mmol m-2 d-1로 가장 높았으며, 귤나무와 동백나무는 각각 292.5 mmol m-2 d-1와 244.8 mmol m-2 d-1로 나타났다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 차나무는 광합성율이 높고 낮 시간의 광억제도 낮을 뿐만 아니라, 귤나무보다 수분요구량이 낮고 수분이용효율은 높아 탄소흡수원으로서 유용한 작물수종인 것으로 보인다.

 ,  , The dispersion indices, spatial pattern and sampling plan for pink citrus rust mite (PCRM), Aculops pelekassi, monitoring was investigated. Dispersion indices of PCRM indicated the aggregated spatial pattern. Taylor’s power law provided better description of variance-mean relationship than Iwao’s patchiness regression. Fixed-precision levels (D) of a sequential sampling plan were developed using by Taylor’s power law parameters generated from PCRM on fruit sample (cumulated number of PCRM in cm<, SUP>, 2<, /SUP>, of fruit). Based on Kono-Sugino’s empirical binomial the mean density per cm<, SUP>, 2<, /SUP>, could be estimated from fruit ratio with more than 12 rust mites per cm<, SUP>, 2<, /SUP>, : ln(m)=4.61+1.23ln[-ln(1<, SUB>, -p12<, /SUB>, )]. To determine the optimal tally threshold, the variance (var(lnm)) for mean (lnm) in Kono-Sugino equation was estimated. The lower and narrow ranged change of variance for esimated mean showed at a tally threshold of 12. To estimate PCRM mean density per cm<, SUP>, 2<, /SUP>, at fixed precision level 0.25, the required sample number was 13 trees, 5 fruits per tree and 2 points per fruit (total 130 samples).

This study was conducted to see the initial increasing time of population of citrus leafminer(CLM) in spring and early summer seasons in 2007-2011. CLM adults were monitored using sex pheromone trap which is mainly composed of Z,Z-7, 11-hexadecadienal in the 4, 8 and 5 orchards of the east, south and north part in jeju island, respectively during 2007-2011 seasons. The traps and lures were changed at 10 days and 1 month interval, respectively. Though CLMs were captured on traps from March or April, it was 17, 28 and 28 May in 2007, 16, 26 May and 5 June in 2008, 8, 26 and 26 May in 2009, 27 May, 7 and 7 June in 2010 and 25 May, 2, 2 June in the south, east and north part of Jeju Island, respectively that the CLM population rapidly began to increase toward peaking. The accumulated temperature except less than developmental zero, 12.1 Ujiye T 1990). from January was 248.0, 270.5 and 289.7 in 2007, 193.2, 203.8 and 261.4 in 2008, 202.0, 245.5 and 259.9 in 2009, 261.4, 192.2 and 268.3 in 2010 and 243.4, 246.3 and 252.4 in 2011 at that time. After May overwintered CLM adults are little possible to be counted to the number of captured CLM because adult longevity is about 100 in degree days (Lim 2006). CLM populations in the south part of Jeju Island in first CLM adults increasing periods during 2007-2011 is higher than other parts.

 ,  , Silver-grey or dark brown scaring, or dark brown discolored damages caused by the yellow tea thrip, Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood (Thysanoptera: Thripidae) have occurred on citrus fruits cultivated in the open field in east-south area orchards of Jeju Island since 2007. The weekly population of yellow tea thrips adults caught with a yellow sticky trap increased gradually from early May and peaked in late August, 2009. In 2010 and 2011, the most population was in early October. The yellow tea thrips of some species usually dominated from July in open citrus fields, and seven generations, at least, had occurred from May to late October 2009 by a yellow sticky trap survey. In 2009, S. dorsalis larva were observed from July and with peaks from late August to mid September and early October on citrus fruits. The damage symptoms appeared in the mid September. In 2011, the population peaks were in early July and late September, and the symptoms increased continually from mid July to late October. The symptoms were silver-scars or initial dark discolorations and then gradually changed to dark-brown discolorations or dark-brown scars. The percent of damaged fruits were 0.9%, 0.4%, 0.8% and 2.7% in 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011, respectively, by survey in 64 typical orchards in Jeju Island. We are the first to report symptoms of the yellow tea thrip (Scirtothrips dotsalis) on citrus fruits.

This study was performed to investigate the antioxidant effects of 4 citrus fruits including Hallabong,Cheonhyehyang, Cheonggyeon, and Jinjihyang. In this study the citrus fruits were separated in three parts of peel, pulp segment membrane (PSM), and pulp and extracted with methanol, then concentrated using a rotary vacuum evaporator. Total polyphenol contents ranged 23.497~42.341 mg/g in peel, 13.285~21.872 mg/g in PSM and 6.333~11.627 mg/g in pulp of the citrus fruits. The total polyphenol contents were highest in the peel and PSM of Jinjihyang and in the pulp of Cheonhyehyang. 1,1-diphenyl-2picryl hydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities were highest in the peel and PSM of Jinjihyang and in the pulp of Cheonhyehyang. 2,2’-Azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging capacities were also highest in the peel and PSM of Jinjihyang and in the pulp of Cheonhyehyang. Reducing powers were highest in the peel of Cheonggyeon, in the PSM of Jinjihyang,and in the pulp of Cheonhyehyang. There were significant correlations in between total polyphenol contents and the radical scavenging activities, and reducing power each other. These results indicate that the 4 citrus fruits (Hallabong, Cheonhyehyang, Cheonggyeon, and Jinjihyang) evidently have antioxidant capacities and their peel parts have the highest antioxidant activities.

본 연구에서는 M16 A계통 '부지화'를 강세대목인 대목 '스윙글 시트루멜로' 또는 보통대목인 '탱자'에 접목하여 무가온 하우스에서 재배한 잎과 과실 사양의 수분상태 변화 및 과실 성숙기의 과실 가용성 고형물과 산 함량변화를 조사했다. 강세대목인 '스윙글 시트 루멜로'와 보통대목인 '탱자'에 접목한 M16 A계통 '부지화'의 대목에 따라 과실의 품질은 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났는데, '스윙글 시트루멜로' 대목은 '탱자' 대목보다 과실 가용성 고형물과 산함량이 낮았다. 동트기 직전에 측정된 과실사양의 수분포텐셜 및 팽압은 '스윙글 시트루멜로' 대목이 '탱자' 대목보다 조금 높은 경향을 보였으나, 삼투 포텐셜의 값은 '탱자' 대목이 '스윙글 시트루멜로' 대목보다 낮았다. 과실사양과 같은 시간대에 측정된 엽수분포텐셜 값의 변화도 과실 사양의 삼투포텐셜 변화와 유사한 경향을 보여주었다. 이상의 결과로 보아, M16 A계통 '부지화'에 있어 두개의 대목에 따라 잎의 수분 상태와 과실사양의 삼투포텐셜 차이가 있었으며, 이러한 차이로 인하여 과실 가용성 고형물과 산 함량에 차이가 나타나는 것으로 판단되며, 대목에 따른 수분 상태와 과실 품질의 차이는 대목의 뿌리분포가 영향을 미쳤기 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

This study was conducted to evaluate Geometridae (Lepidoptera) species as pests and the damage they cause in citrus orchards in Jej u, Korea. Seven geometridae species occurred in citrus orchards: Ascotis selenaria, Ectropis excellens, Menophra senilis, Biston panterinaria, Ourapteryx nivea, Odontopera arida and Hypomecis punctinalis. Among them, A. selenaria was most abundant, followed by E. excellens and M senilis. Most Geometridae larvae fed on citrus leaves, but A. selenaria larvae ate fruits and leaves. Fruit damage of Citrus unshiu appeared as gnawed scars caused by young larvae feeding on fruit surface. Fruit damage on Shiranui fruits appeared as a wide hole or deep scars caused by feeding by mature larvae (6th instar). Citrus leaves damage due to Geometridae larvae was high during May to June. Fruit damage started in late June as the spring-shoots of citrus hardened and increased sharply in late July. In the field experiment, fruit damage in the late season reached 4.2% in both 2008 and 2009 and reached 5.2% in 2010. In citrus orchards, A. selenaria larvae started to appear in mid-May and their populations peaked in mid June, late July, and early to mid-September. Adult males of A. selenaria had a maximum peak in mid-May, and two other peaks in early to late July and late August to early September. A. selenaria male adults were collected in a pheromone traps constantly throughout Jeju Island.

Arrowhead scale, Unaspis yanonensis, is a serious scale insect pest of citrus in Jeju. The sticky taping of 1.0 cm diameter twig was a good survey method for arrowhead scale crawler. There are three times crawler occurrence season - late May to early July, late July to middle September and late September to late October. But the third occurred crawlers are all died during overwintering in open-field groves. This study was conducted to provide information on efficient sampling plan for arrowhead scale within the tree. Twig and fruit was fit for secondary sample unit by two-stage variance analysis. Both sample number per tree (primary sample unit) was eight twigs or fruits. Taylor’s power law was better described the distribution characteristic of arrowhead scale than Iwao’s patchiness regression. The slope of both linear regressions was greater than “1” which means aggregative distribution pattern. Minimum sample size to estimate the density was calculated using by two parameters of Taylor’s power law. To estimate the mean density on twig and fruit by binomial sampling plan, the optimum tally threshold was 5 and 7, respectively.

Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood is a newly advent pest on citrus in Jeju. Both larvae and adult attack the new shoots and young and matured fruits of citrus. S. dorsalis is highly polyphagous with over 100 recorded species, but not known in Jeju. As a result from investigating the host plants in and/or around citrus orchards in Jeju during 2009 to 2010, they were 25 families 39 species. The total thrips examined on those plants were 13 species, and the richness thrips among them was S. dorsalis, Frankliniella occidentalis, Thrips tabaci and Thrips hawaiiensis. The widespread host plants of S. dorsalis were Mallotus japonicus, Paederia scandens, Hedera rhombea, Cayratia japonica and Clematis apiifolia and they can be also used for monitoring plants. On early May, the larvae of S. dorsalis were first investigated on the shoots of Mallotus japonicus, Lonicera japonica, Paederia scandens, Viburnum awabukira, Fraxinus rhynchophylla and Celtis sinensis. The other thrips species except S. dorsalis and T. tabaci, especially F. intonsa, T. hawaiiensis, T. flavus and T. coloratus were just found on flower stalks during the blooming season.

본 연구에서는 감귤 과피 가공부산물로부터 기능성 polyphenol 및 flavonoid가 새로운 추출방법인 아임계 추출법을 통해 추출되었고, 열수(80oC), 에탄올, 설탕용액을 이용한 기존 추출법과의 추출효율이 비교 분석되었다. 건조된 감귤 과피로부터 총 polyphenol(27.25±1.33 mg QE/g DCP) 및 flavonoid(7.31±0.41 mg QE/g DCP)에 대한 최대 수율이 아임계 추출법(190°C, 1300 psi, 10 min)을 통해 획득되었으며, 이것은 기존 추출법 가운데 가장 높은 수율을 보인 에탄올 추출법을 통한 총 polyphenol(3.79±0.73 mg QE/g DCP) 및 flavonoid(0.86±0.27 mg QE/g DCP) 수율 대비 7.2배와 8.5배 이상 더 높은 것이었다. 추출방법에 따른 감귤 과피 추출물의 항산화 활성은 큰 차이를 나타내지 않았으나, 이러한 결과는 건조 감귤 과피 1 g 당 아임계 추출법(190oC, 1300 psi, 10 min)에 의한 항산화 성분의 상대 수율(relative yield, %)이 다른 추출방법을 통해 획득된 것보다 대략 9.5배 이상 더 높다는 것을 설명하는 결과로, 아임계 추출법이 기존의 전통적 추출법에 비하여 감귤 과피의 기능성 polyphenol 및 flavonoid를 추출하는데 매우 적합한 방법임을 제시하고 있다.

The males of cryptic mealybug, Pseudococcus cryptus, were attracted on trap baited with or without a synthetic sex pheromone. The attractiveness of sex pheromone trap was higher than yellow-color sticky trap, but both phenologies were similar. There was a positive relationship between mean density of 2nd nymph to adult cryptic mealybug and the density of the male caught on trap. The density of cryptic mealybug per tree was higher correlated with yellow-color sticky trap than sex pheromone trap. The pattern of cryptic mealybug male occurrence had two to three cohorts in a generation resulted from overwintering stage. The maximum occurring time of 1st to 2nd nymph stage could be estimated from the peak time of trap catch by effective temperature accumulation. The higher and lower threshold temperature was estimated as 10.9 and 32.6℃, respectively and its thermal constant was 360 degree-day. The cryptic mealybug parasitoid, Anagyrus sp., which was first recovered in Jeju in 2009, was well attracted on yellow-color sticky trap. There was a high correlation between the density of Anagyrus sp. and of cryptic mealybug males caught on trap.

The cottony cushion scale, Icerya purchasi Maskell (Hemiptera: Margarodidae), is a destructive pest on citrus. This study was conducted to obtain the stage-specific phenology of I.purchasi for use in field application. The crawlers (hatched nymphs) from the egg sac of overwintered female began to move from late May and peaked in early to mid-June with most crawlers completed the movement till late June. The 1st nymph population peaked in mid June in 1stgeneration and early October in 2ndgeneration. The 2nd nymphs showed peak activity in late July and late October during the 1st and 2nd generation, respectively. The 3rd nymphs peaked in early September in 1st generation, while it kept a plateau without forming a peak after mid October in 2nd generation. The 1st generation adults peaked in mid September, and the tail was overlapped with 2nd generation adult population. Consequently, two life cycles were competed in Jeju area. An average of 20.7% of citrus orchards was infested with I. purchasi with a 3.9% of mean infested trees in Jeju. The present results should be useful in establishing management strategies for I. purchasi in citrus orchards.

This study was conducted to identify plant-parasitic nematodes and determine the distribution pattern of the nematode species in citrus fruit orchards in Korea from April to August, 2008. Plant-parasitic nematodes were found in 139 among 178 soil samples. Tylenchulus semipenetrans was collected from 85 out of 94 Citrus unshiu orchards examined (90.4%). C. junos orchards infested with T. semipenetrans were 60 out of 84 (71.4%). However, proportion of dominant species between the two was different. At domestic Citrus orchards, it proved that T. semipenetrans was the most important plant-parasitic nematode from this study. The overall frequency of the plant-parasitic nematodes was positively correlated with the cultivation years. More alkaline soils tended to harbor more T. semipenetrans. However the correlation coefficient between the two was very low.

The damage of citrus fruit by yellow tea thrips, Scirtothrips dorsalis Hood, was first confirmed in 2008, and has since been one of the serious pests of citrus in Jeju. This was reported on damage symptom on tangor cultivar, Setoka (Tangor Norin No. 8) fruits cultivated in a greenhouse and the characteristic of spatial disttribution of S. dorsalis caught on yellow sticky traps was conducted in three commercial citrus orchards. The feeding habits by S. dorsalis cause rind blemishes on the navel part of fruit. The damage is characterized by being scarped and figure like covered cloud on satsum mandarine fruit, but on by a brown ring of rough russeting that occurs on navel part of Setoka fruit. The season of damage occurrence was from middle of June to late of July. There was a highly significant relationship between the average number of thrips per trap and the maximum number caught on a trap. The overall differences between the linear regression models obtained from mean-variance relationship for each surveyed fields were tested by type Ⅲ error and contrast method. The characteristic of spatial distribution of S. dorsalis was better described by Taylor's power law than Iwao's patchiness regression, and the dispersion index which is the slope (=1.72) of linear regression model showed the aggregated distribution pattern. The sequential sampling stop lines at fixed precision level of 0.20, 0.25 and 0.30 were calculated.

According to the IPCC report (IPCC, 2001), the global-mean surface temperature has risen by 0.6 oC during the 20th century due to the increase of atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases, and the mean temperature of the Korean Peninsula is also risen by 1.5 oC during the same period due to global warming as well as rapid urbanization. During the 21st century, the global-mean temperature is projected to rise 1.5-5.8oC associated with the various scenarios from IPCC Special Report on Emission Scenario (SRES) (2000). Climate change is expected to have important impacts on the relationship between crops and insect pests as well as on human societies. Frazier et al. (2006) demonstrated that warm-adapted insect species have much higher maximum population growth rate (intrinsic rate of increase) than do cold-adapted species; which indicates biochemical and physiological adaptations of insects do not overcome the constrain of thermodynamics. Consequently, global warming could lead to an increase in the number of insects worldwide. This presentation will discuss the changes in the population abundance of several citrus pests according to global warming. The differences of population growth rates between normal year's or past temperatures and elevated temperatures were compared, and also analytical models such as matrix model and predator-prey model were applied to project the performance of population dynamics of some pests and natural enemy.

Some responses of cryptic mealybug, Pseudococcus cryptus, for a sex pheromone, [(1R,3R)-3-isopropenyl-2,2-dimethylcyclobutyl]methyl 3-methyl-3-butenoate, were studied to develop the applying strategy of sex pheromone trap for efficient monitoring and control-time decision in citrus orchards grown in greenhouse for 2 years (2007-2008). The optimal concentration of a sex pheromone was 1.0㎎ per hexane 100㎕ in a using pheromone lure. There was no significant effect of the attraction of male adults among different colours (white, blue and yellow) of plate-type trap baited with sex pheromone. The more male adults were attracted, as the distance of a pheromone trap form a citrus tree infested with cryptic mealybug was closer. The male adults were caught to sex pheromone trap from middle April to late November, and its peak period was the middle of July. The thermal constant for the next attraction was about 640 degree-days (lower threshold temperature=12℃) after confirmed the first attraction of male adults. The optimum control time for cryptic mealybug after the first attraction of male adults were confirmed was estimated as 450 to 500 degree-days.
