In recent years, an increasing amount of research has been conducted on the yield loss of soybean crop caused by Riptortus clavatus, a serious pest of legumes. The objective of this study were to examine crop damage caused by various population densities of R. clavatus and determine the association of unique growth and seed characteristics with crop damage rate in conventional soybean fields. Major growth responses to R. clavatus were examined. The cultivars that were not as seriously damaged by R. clavatus were Pungsannamulkong, Sobaegknamulkong, Duyoukong, and Sinpaldal 2, but Myeongjunamulkong, Mallikong, and Hwangkeumkong were significantly (P<0.05) damaged. The rate of seed damage caused by R. clavatus was 8.2% in a group of brown colored pubescence, while the rate was 13.0% in a group of the gray colored. Crop damage by R. clavatus clearly more reduced in cultivars with dark hilum colors including dark brown, brown, and grayish brown than those with yellow hilum colors. Concerning pod colors, crop damage was less significant in cultivars with dark brown pod color than with the light brown. Cultivars with short pod length (4.0-4.5 cm) at full seed (R6) stage showed lower seed damage rates by R. clavatus than those with long pod length (>5.6 cm). Therefore, characteristics of hilum, pod, pubescence colors, and pod length were significantly related and linked to the cultivar resistance to R. clavatus.

Methyl (E,E,Z)-2,4,6-decatrienoate is the aggregation pheromone of brown-winged stink bug Plautia stali (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae). Attractiveness of the pheromone synthesized in Korea was compared with that of synthesized in Japan in the field. A lure filled with hexane was used as a control treatment. Catches in trap baited with Korean pheromone was significantly higher than that baited with Japanese one only in one orchard out of three sweet persimmon orchards in 2008. However there was no difference in trap catches between Korean and Japanese pheromones at three sites in 2009. Gas chromatography analysis showed that the components of both pheromones were not different each other. Monitoring of P. stali seasonal fluctuation using Korean pheromone showed that the bugs were most captured in August, 2008 and in September, 2009.

Life cycle of Tropidothorax cruciger(Motschulsky) was studied on Cynanchum wilfordii Hemsley in the field as well as its development, overwintering patterns, and host preferences. Overwintered adults appeared in early and mid May, and the first generation adults emerged from late June extending to mid August. Second generation adults which usually overwinter, appeared from mid September to early October and were usually found beneath the soil surface or fallen leaves in winter. Adults were not attracted to various light sources. T. cruciger showed host preferences specifically toward Metapiexis japonica and Cynanchum wilfordii, both in the family of Asclepiadaceae.

Species of pathogens and insects associated with grain discoloration in the Philippines were indentified. Leptocorisa oratorios was the most dominant insect species causing discoloration. Pathogenicity tests of fungal organisms isolated from discolored grains showed that Drechslera oryzae, Curvularia lunata, Trichoconiella padwickii, Sarocladium oryzae, Alternaria tenuis, and Fusarium solani were the common pathogens responsible for 'dirty panicle' disease of rice. Discoloration incidence was higher on treatment when both pests were present than when they occurred singly. The discoloration severity was attributed to the pathogens whereas rice bug caused a high decrease in grain weight and unfilled grains. Rice bug feeding on grains enhances the infection caused by the pathogen. Due to this, the quantity and quality of grains produced were affected, resulting in yield reduction.

We investigated optimal condition for synthesis of (E)-2-hexenyl (E)-2-hexenoate (1) and (E)-2-hexenyl (Z)-3-hexenoate (2), the pheromone components of Riptortus pedestris, by Steglich esterification. The reaction with 1.1-1.5 equivalent of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), 1.5-2.0 equivalent of (E)-2-hexenol, and 0.1 equivalent 4-dimethylaminopyrinde (DMAP) to (E)-2-hexenoic acid in toluene or (Z)-3-hexenoic acid in dichloromethane led 1 and 2 in 76-78% and 87-91% yield, respectively.
