갈색여치에 대한 백강균의 병원력 검증

Laboratory trial on the control effect of Beauveria bassiana against Paratlanticus ussuriensis was carried out with fungi collected from South Korea, China and Peru. All B. bassiana species from collected at each site had a strong fungicidal activity against P. ussuriensis. The Abbott's formula was the highest showing 100% mortality and the others also showed over 60% mortality. It took 3 to 6 days until katydid attained to death after inoculation with all B. bassiana treatments. From this trial, B. bassiana fungus was found to have some effects as pathogenicity of entomopathogenic activity against P. ussuriensis. So B. bassiana could be considered as one of the environment-friendly and effective pesticides for the control of P. ussuriensis. 본 연구에서는 갈색여치의 친환경적 방제를 위해 곤충병원성 진균인 백강균(B. bassiana)의 병원력에 대한 실험을 수행하였다. 실험에 이용된 모든 균주에서 60% 이상의 병원력을 나타냈으며, 살충시간 또한 10일 이내로 짧았다. 따라서 백강균은 갈색여치의 생물학적 방제원으로 이용 가능성이 높다고 판단할 수 있다.
