1. 잠업은 식물적 동물적 가공적부문이 결합 혼합된 산업이므로 유통단계 및 유통기능이 다변족이며 타산업과 현격하게 다름. 2. 일반적 농산물의 경우도 그러하지만 잠견은 6월의 춘잠과 8월의 하추잠시기의 집중적으로 출회되므로서 상품의 수급탄력성은 거의 없고 따라서 정부의 수집조작이 요망됨 3. 잠견의 거래제도는 일정시의 특약공동판매제와 대동소이한 것으로 유통기능의 경직비를 그대로 존속하고 있음. 즉 잠견공급전량이 농협의 잠사공판매에서 공판되고 도지사가 제사공장별구견지역을 정하는 바에 따라 제사공장이 인수함. 4 유통마진은 타 상품과 같이 시장경제적거래가 성립되어 있지 않기 때문에 전혀 나타나지 않는 것 같지만 사실에 있어서는 검사제도소송심의 과정에서 상당한 마진이 존재함. 5 일시에 잠견이 공결됨으로 해서 검사제도합리화 〈기계검사〉, 건견장설치 등 사회간점자본시설 이 크게 요청됨.

The aim of this study is to develop indoor-rearing methods of the diving beetles. In nature, both the adult diving beetle and its larvae are voracious aquatic predators. The larvae beetles hunt relatively bigger size of tadpoles and small fish for food source. However, due to difficulties of the food supplement for rearing diving beetles at indoor-condition further motivated us to develop new artificial food. Three separate experiments were performed. In the first experiment, adult beetles were provided with one of the several food choice treatments to self-compose their preferred foods that are affordable on the market at lower price. The second experiment was also to develop artificial diet that is possible for rearing larvae beetle under indoor condition. The larvae beetles were restricted to raw squid, artificial food source and mosquito larvae as a control at the first stadium and small fish and raw squid during second to third stadium duration. According to our result, adult beetles selected a food that made of boiled squid and dead small fish while, the young larvae consumed small fish, mosquito larvae and raw squid. Although, the larval food restriction on law squid caused noticeable decrease in survival, the result still supported the possible survival rate of keeping larvae at indoor condition. Moreover, pupation rate experiments, in which groups of larvae were placed at different mats, natural soil and fermented sawdust, showed that 80% of diving beetles pupated on the sawdust. This result indicates that female beetle preferentially selected to oviposit along soft and moist area.

Insect resources have been widely recognized that seven millions of insects exhibit it own biological activity by whole body or its metabolic intermediates. In order to investigate antioxidant activity and compare the cyclooxygenase-2 promoter activity from insect extract, we tested in vitro antioxidant assays and cyclooxygenase-2 promoter assay in Coccinella septempunctata Linne and Harmonia axyridis extracts have the anti-oxidant and cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition activities, we examined the anti-oxidant assays including DPPH, FRAP and linoleic acid, ana inhibition of cyclooxygenase-2 expression using a cyclooxygenase-2 promoter-inserted stable cell line. We found that Harmonia axyridis Pallas extract had potentials to anti-oxidant activity and inhibited about 25% of cyclooxygenase-2 transcription activity. These findings indicate that Coccinella septempunctata Linne and Harmonia axyridis Pallas extracts could be an useful insect resource for agrobiotechnological purposes.

Insect industry has been focused as production of food, animal feed, pollinator and for environmental remediation. Hermetia illicens, called as black soldier fly (BSF) is famous as nutritive feed. In this study, to evaluate the antithrombotic activities of BSF, the larvae (instar 2~6), pupae, residue after adult emergence [RAAE] and adult of Hermetia illicens [black soldier fly, BSF] were collected and their ethanol extracts were prepared. Growth of BSF larvae was very rapid and the weight of larvae was increased to 25-folds during 10 days cultivation. The ethanol extraction ratios showed from 1.0% (pupae) to 18.5%(adults). The highest total polyphenol, total flavonoid, and total sugar contents were observed in RAEE (17.2 mg/g), pupae (3.4 mg/g), and instar 6 (37.6 mg/g), suggesting that metabolic changes occur during the life cycle of the BSF. Anti-coagulation assay showed that extracts of RAEE, instar 6 and pupa of BSF significantly inhibited thrombin, prothrombin, and blood coagulation factors. Furthermore, the extracts of RAEE, instar 3 and adult of BSF showed a strong platelet aggregation inhibitory activity. Our results suggest that pupae and RAEE of BSF have potential as antithrombotic agents. This is the first study to provide evidence of the antithrombotic activity of the BSF and bioactivity alterations during its life cycle.

To establish the systematic biological control system for various insect pests in strawberry under plastic houses, we were investigated the biological traits of lesser strawberry aphid, Chaetosiphon minus (Forbes), as a target pest. The lesser strawberry aphid is adapted to low temperatures while examining the availability of and selecting useful natural enemies. The development, survivorship and reproduction of lesser strawberry aphid were evaluated at four constant temperatures (10, 15, 20, and 25℃). The developmental periods of the nymphal stages ranged from 41.7 d at 10℃ to 9.8 d at 25℃. The developmental threshold temperature and degree day of nymphal stages are 5.5℃ and 185 DD. The reproduction rate (R₀) was higher at 20℃ (30.16) than at 25℃ (22.38). The 50 % survival rate and maximum longevity of adult females were 31 d and 59 d at 20℃, and 25 d and 36 d at 25℃, respectively. The average progeny per female was 35 at 20℃, and 26 at 25℃. We confirmed that compared to other strawberry aphids under plastic houses, the lesser strawberry aphid is more adapted to lower temperatures. It is, therefore, necessary to commercialize natural enemies such as syrphid flies with high activity at low temperatures.

This study investigated the developmental and ovipositional characteristics of Protaetia brevitarsis individuals that were fed with fermented mulberry sawdust. The developmental periods of larvae were 164.0, 73.3, and 64.8 days at 25, 28, and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. The maximum larval weight was 2.94 g at $25^{\circ}C$, and the weight of larvae decreased as temperature increased. The average weight of female adults were 0.94, 0.51, and 0.54 g at 25, 28, and $30^{\circ}C$, respectively. The weight of male adults was higher than that of females. The addition of 10% or 30% wheat bran to the fermented mulberry sawdust increased larval weight. It was possible to sell larvae from 75 days after mass rearing, when the cumulative rate of larvae that were heavier than 2.5 g was approximately 75%. The average number of eggs per female was 83.2 at $25^{\circ}C$, and this was the highest in the 5th week. Most of the eggs (73%) were oviposited between 3 and 8 weeks after adults emergence.

This study was evaluated to increase the production efficiency of Gryllus bimaculatus De Geer, which are recently increasing attention as industrial insects in Korea. In this study, the hatching rate and larval period were investigated along with temperature and humidity, as well as the survival rate and ovipositional temperatures along with rearing density. The optimum relative humidity for hatching was highest at 90%, which shows the hatching rate of 90%. The highest hatching rate was 98.3% at $20^{\circ}C$. The hatching period was shortest at $35^{\circ}C$ incubation, which shows 7.1 days in average. The survival rate at 3,000-20,000 individuals in the breeding container was 34-18% after rearing for 35 days. In the effect test of feeding vegetables, the survival rate was 1.8 times and the biomass weight 2.5 times higher than that of normal individuals respectively. The number of laying eggs by temperature was highest at $25^{\circ}C$, which shows 1,710 eggs after reading for 30 days.

본 논문은 근래에 식용곤충 식품에 대한 수요 및 국민적 관심이 증가하여 관련 산업이 급격히 성장하고 있는 가운데, 건강기능성 효과가 널리 알려진 흰점박이꽃무지 유충의 안정적인 생산량 확보를 위한 스마트 사육사를 제작하고 그 성능을 평가한 결과이다. 사육사는 L6m×W3m×H2.8m 크기로 제작하였으며, 안정적인 사육환경을 위하여 사육실과 공조실을 분리하여 설계하였다. 공시재료는 생후 15일이 경과된 흰점박이꽃 무지 유충 1령이며, 스마트 사육사 내 사육환경은 온도 25±2℃, 습도 65±5%로 제어하였다. 사육조사는 매주 1회, 유충의 체중, 길이, 두께를 측정하였으며, 스마트 사육사의 성능평가를 위해 일반 사육농가(전북 소재)와 비교·분석하였다. 사육 4주 후 조사 결과, 스마트 사육사에서 사육한 유충의 체중과 길이는 각각 평균 1.97g/마리와 3.75cm로, 일반농가의 1.58g/마리와 3.55cm에 비해 비교적 높은 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, 두께의 경우 2주 차까지 일반농가에서 대체로 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 이후 3~4주 차에서는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았다. 따라서 본 연구를 통해 개발한 흰점박이꽃무지 유충 스마트 사육사는 일반농가와 비교해 사육이 비교적 빠르고 생산량을 더 많이 확보할 수 있는 시스템으로 농가소득 증대에 유용할 것으로 판단되며, 장소 및 시간에 상관없이 생육환경 제어가 가능하여 개발된 시제품의 보급 확대가 필요하다.
