Action properties and insecticidal effects of thiamethoxam to the melon aphid, Aphis gossypii, and diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella

목화진딧물과 배추좀나방에 대한 thiamethoxam의 살충효과 및 작용특성

For the purpose of effective control strategy of the melon aphid, Aphis gossypii and the diamondback moth, Plutella xylostella, thiamethoxam and 3 other insecticides in different classes were used with bioassay test methods in laboratory and greenhouse. They were examined to evaluated and compared with contact toxicity, stomach toxicity, rapid action, systemic action, and residual effect of imidacloprid, thiamethoxam (nicotinoids), acephate (organophosphorates), and carbosulfan (carbamates). As results of contact toxicity responses of A. gassypii against 4 insecticides using a spray application method, $LC_{50}$ values of acephate, carbosulfan, imidacloprid and thiamethoxam were 41.9, 5.2, 1.1, and 0.7 ppm. respectively. In the evaluation of stomach toxicity response of P. xylostella using a leaf-dipping method, with the 2nd instar larva $LC_{50}$ values of imidacloprid, thiamethoxam and acetamiprid were 64.9, 24.6 and 15.2 ppm, with the 3rd instar larva were 125.2, 42.7 and 27.8 ppm. and with the 4th instar larva were 241.1, 44.5 and 23.9 ppm, respectively. In the case of rapid action to A. gossypii using a spray application method after inoculation, $LT_{50}$ values of imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, carbosulfan, and acephate were 26.6, 28.0, 30.3, and 41.7 min. respectively. Otherwise, in the inoculation after applying compounds, $LT_{50}$ values of thiamethoxam, imidacloprid, and carbosulfan were 95.5, 118.0, and 122.9 min. respectively. Evaluating to systemic action from the abaxial surface to the adaxial surface of red pepper leaf with spray method, $LT_{50}$ values of thiamethoxam, imidacloprid, and carbosulfan were 162.2, 168.9, and 564.1 min. respectively. For the systemic action from the lower leaves to the upper leaves on red pepper, $LT_{50}$ values of carbosulfan, thiamethoxam, imidacloprid, and acephate were 2.3, 2.9, 3.0, and 8.8 days, respectively. In red pepper plant, $LT_{50}$ values of carbosulfan, imidacloprid, thiamethoxam, and acephate on the systemic action from the roots to the upper leaf were 0.6, 1.0, 1.0, and 13.8 days, respectively. As these results, it might be that thiamethoxam was excellent on systemic effect in red pepper. For the evaluation of residual effect on red pepper with A. gossypii, thiamethoxam and imidacloprid maintained high control effects as over 80% upto 10 days after treating compounds.

신규화합물인 thiamethoxam의 목화진딧물과 배추좀나방에 대한 살충효과를 분석하기 위하여 일반적인 생물검정 방법을 이용하여 접촉 및 섭식독성반응과 속효성, 침투이행성, 잔효성 등을 다른 약제들과 비교 검토하였다. Spray법을 이용하여 접촉독성을 조사한 결과 목화진딧물에 대한 반수치사농도($LC_{50}$)는 유기인계인 acephate 41.9 ppm, 카바메이트인 carbosulfan 5.2 ppm, 니코틴계인 imidacloprid와 thiamethoxam은 각각 1.1, 0.7 ppm을 나타냈다. 배추좀나방을 대상으로 엽침적법으로 처리했을 경우 섭식독성은 2령 유충의 경우 $LC_{50}$값이 imidacloprid 64.9 ppm, thiamethoxam 24.6 ppm, acetamiprid 15.2 ppm, 3령 유충에서는 각각 125.1, 42.7, 27.8 ppm이었고, 4령 유충에서는 각각 241.1, 44.5, 23.9 ppm으로 령기별로 약간의 차이를 보였다. 한편, 목화진딧물을 대상으로 한 약제의 속효성을 측정하는 반수치사시간 ($LT_{50}$)은 접종 후 약제살포시에 imidaclopid 26.6분, thiamethoxam 28.0분, carbosulfa 30.3분, acephate 41.7분의 순이었고, 약제살포 후 접종하였을 때에는 thiamethoxam 95.5분, imidaclopid 118.0분, carbosulfan 122.9분으로 진딧물에 직접 살포한 것이 살충시간을 단축시켰다. 또한, 잎표면으로부터 이면으로의 약효성분의 이행성을 비교한 결과 $LT_{50}$값은 thiamethoxam 162.2분, imidacloprid 168.9분, carbosulfan 564.1분이었고, 하위 잎으로부터 최상위 잎으로의 이행성에서는 carbosulfan 2.3일, thiamethoxam 2.9일, imidacloprid 3.0일, acephate 8.8일이었다. 뿌리로부터 잎으로의 이행성은 carbosulfan 0.6일, imidacloprid 1.0일, thiamethoxam 1.0일, acephate 13.8일로서 thiamethoxam의 침투이행성이 가장 빠른 것으로 나타났다. Spray법을 이용한 잔효성 시험결과 thiamethoxam과 imidaclopid는 약제처리 후 10일째에도 80%이상의 높은 살충효과를 나타내어 잔효성이 우수하였다.
