Abstract

A barley virus disease has been severe in central Korea since 1963. To investigate the causal virus, examination of host ranges, transmission by insect vectors and · electron microscopy were conducted. In electron microscopy, particles identical with northern cereal mosaic virus were observed. The size of baciliform particles ranged from 300nm to 370nm in length and 57-60nm in diameter. The virus was transmitted by the small brown planthopper Laodelphax striatellus (Fallen). The latent period in the vector was seven to nineteen days, with 10 days the most prevalent. Barley, corn, wheat, rye, and oats were susceptible to the virus when inoculated by the insect vectors. It was concluded that the disease agent of the barley disease in Korea is northern cereal mosaic virus. This is the first known report of this disease in Korea.

1963년부터 중부지방에 큰 피해를 주고 있는 맥류의 바이러스병을 동정하기 위하여 전자현미경에 의한 바이러스입자 관찰과 매개충을 이용한 전염시험 및 기주범위조사를 한 결과 정상입자의 평균 크기는 길이가 300-370nm였고 폭이 57-60nm였다. 매개충은 애멸구 Laodelphax striatellus(Fallen)로서 충체내 잠복기간은 7-19일이였고 대부분 10일간이었다. Host range는 보리, 옥수수, 밀, Rye맥, 구리 등으로 옥수수외의 기주식물들은 포장에서도 발병이 되고 있다. 그러므로 중부지방에서 발생되고 있는 맥류 바이러스병은 대부분이 북지모자익바이러스병으로 매년 $10\%$내외의 감염율을 보여주고 있으며 춘파맥에서는$100\%$ 감염 될 때도 있다.
