Microbial Control of the Tobacco Cutworm, Spodoptera litura (Fab.), Using S. litura Nuclear Polyhedrosis Virus. III. Field Evaluation of the Viral Insecticides

곤충 핵다각체병바이러스를 이용한 담배거세미나방의 생물적 방제. III. 담배거세미나방 핵다각체병바이러스 살충제 살포효과

Viral insecticides were formulated with Spodoptera litura nuclear polyhedrosis virus and different U.V. protectants based on white carbon, molasses, and white carbon and molasses mixture to use as microbial control agents. Effect of rainfall on the attachment of formulated viruses to leaves was no different between the treated and the non-treated experiment. Persistence of the formulations was lated 5 days on the surface-sprayed leaves and 12 days on the under-sprayed leaves which was showing 60% mortality. Total mortality of the viral insecticides was more than 97% with no differences among them. Field evaluation of three viral insecticides in soybean field was very successful then carried out in Chinju, a southern part of Korea. Mortality by the formulation in the field during 14 days was more than 93%, but the formulations contained molasses showed phytotoxicity on soybean leaves. Spray effect of the viral insecticides was begun to appear from 7 days later than that of chemical insecticide.

담배거세미나방 핵다각체병바이러스를 white carbon 제제, molasses 제제 및 White carbon-molasses 혼합제등 3종의 바이러스살충제로 만들어 제제의 살포방법, 살포효과 및 잔류효과를 폿트 및 콩포장에서 살충효과를 비교하였다. 바이러스 살충채 살포는 콩잎 표면 살포시 약 5일, 이변 살포시 약 12일까지 60% 이상의 살충효과가 지속되었다. 폿트식재 콩잎을 이용한 바이러스살충제의 살포효과는 molasses 제제와 with carbon 제제에서 모두 97% 이상의 살충효과가 있었으나 molasses성분을 포함한 제제는 햇빛에 의해 일부 콩잎에 약해를 보였다. 바이러스살충제 살포 1 시간 후 빗물 처리에 의한 영향은 빗물 무처리와 큰 차이가 없이 90% 이상의 살충효과가 있었다. 야외 콩 포장에서 바이러스살충제의 살포효과는 3종의 제제 모두 90%이상의 살충율이었 며, 유기합성농약보다 7일 늦게 효과가 나타난 반면 2주 이상 효과가 지속되었다.
