Halyomorpha halys (St${\aa}$l) (Hemiptera: Pentatomidae) is a typical polyphagous stink bug causing losses in several host plants including leguminous crops and fruits. Nutritional status of fruits such as apple and orange for the development of H. halys is not yet clear. We evaluated fruits of apple and orange with or without soybean-peanuts as food sources to investigate development, mortality and fecundity of the stink bug in a controlled condition. Those only fed on water could not develop into third instars. H. halys could not develop into fourth instar on apple only food. However, on an orange only food, 14% of H. halys emerged as adults. Those fed on orange only food had the longest development period (74.2 d). Total mortality of those fed on foods consisting of soybean-peanut ranged from 38 to 44%. In an average a female laid 169~190 eggs in a lifetime and those eggs had 81~83% hatchability. Results indicated that the apple fruit as a solo food source is an incomplete food for H. halys development while orange could support development of only few of the bugs.

The fecundity of summer generation adults of arrowhead scale, Unaspis yanonensis (Kuwana) (Hemiptera: Diaspididae), was examined at constant temperatures. The total fecundity increased up to $29^{\circ}C$ and declined thereafter. Total fecundity reached a maximum of 254.5 eggs (crawlers) per female at $29^{\circ}C$. Females showed periodic oviposition activity but the pattern differed with temperature. Three or more oviposition cycles were occurred at 25 and $29^{\circ}C$. At the other temperatures, the 2nd oviposition cycle was reduced or obscure. And oviposition cycle after the 2nd cycle was not obvious at low or high temperatures. The fecundity of the 1st cycle was significantly different according to temperature, showing higher fecundity at 25 and $29^{\circ}C$. Fecundity after 1st cycle at 13, 17 and $21^{\circ}C$ were lower than at 25 and $29^{\circ}C$. The sex ratios of hatched nymphs in terms of female : male in 13, 17, 25, 29 and $33^{\circ}C$ were 1 : 0.48, 1 : 4.79, 1 : 2.48, 1 : 1.85 and 1 : 0.56, respectively.

Rice black-streaked dwarf virus(RBSDV) was purified from infected maize leaves. Antiserum against RBSDV was prepared for virus detection by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). In detection of RBSDV by ELISA, effective dilution range of antiserum extracted in RBSDV-containing host plants and insect vectors was from 320 to 2,560 times in rice plant, 320 to 5,120 in maize plant, and 160 to 2,560 times in insect vector, Laodelphax striatellus F, respectively. The percentage of viruliferous vector in overwintered nymphs of Laodelphax striatellus determined by ELISA were 3.0 in Milyang, 2.3 in Chilgok, and 3.7 in Sunsan area. Dead insect vector which could not be tested for vims infection by conventional rice seedling inoculation test could be tested by ELISA. One hundred plants of rice and maize were randomly sampled in the field and tested whether or not they were infected with RBSDV. In rice plants, 4 out of 98 plants turned out to be infected with RBSDV by ELISA. In maize plant, 3 out of 92 plants which were excepted 8 plants to be appeared symptom already were infected. As a result, ELISA could be detected even in case of symptomless plants at early stage of viral infection.

This experiment was conducted to develop control method for Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) on eggplant using sticky trap method. According to the color of the sticky traps, the attractiveness of the B. tabaci was the highest in the yellow trap, followed by the green and orange. However, white, blue, red, black and green sticky traps have reduced attractiveness of B. tabaci. In order to improve the efficiency and attractiveness of sticky trap to the B. tabaci, the different kinds of sugars such as glucose, fructose, oligosaccharide, starch syrup and pure sugar were added to sticky traps respectively. However, the effect of B. tabaci attractiveness was low in starch syrup, pure sugar, and non-treated sticky traps. The attracting effect of B. tabaci was depending on the location of sticky trap. The highest value was obtained where sticky traps were located in the top of the eggplant, followed by 30 cm above from the top level. In addition, we were installed up to 40 sticky traps to determine the optimal amount of sticky traps to control B. tabaci in eggplant. When increasing the sticky traps, the number of adult and nymphs of B. tabaci were tended to be decreased significantly. This tendency was more effective in the latter stages than in the early stages. As the number of sticky traps increased, not only the growth rate of eggplant, leaf length, and stem diameter were to be better. But also number of fruits and product marketable value were increased at the early stage of growing as well. The study had proven that the sticky traps had an effect on increasing the yield at the early stage of growth, but the efficiency of controlling decreased due to the high density of B. tabaci of the next generation.

The developmental ecology and temperature-dependent growth model were calculated to develop the Scotinophara lurida control technology, which is mainly affected by environmentally friendly rice cultivation. The survival rate of S. lurida after overwintering in 2019 showed that 167 of 224 survived and the survival rate was 72.8%. Overwintering adult of S. lurida occur in rice fields in mid-June, spawn in early July, and first-generation adults develop in mid-August. In order to determine the temperature-dependent growth model, the growth periods by temperature and development stage were investigated in a incubator at 18, 21, 24, 27, 30℃ and 14L: 10D. The period from egg to adult at the temperature of 18, 21, 24, 27, 30℃ was 119.8, 73.1, 53.5, 39.4, and 82.0 days, respectively. The best development temperature was at 27℃. The regression curve was obtained by analyzing the relationship between temperature and growth rate using the Excell program, and the base temperature threshold and effective cumulative temperature for each development stage were calculated. From eggs to 5 nymphs of S. lurida the base temperature threshold was 17.9℃ and the effective cumulative temperature was 380.2 DD.

Development and reproduction of the sycamore lace bug, Corythucha ciliata, were investigated under different temperature regimes. Duration of development from egg to pre-adult of the sycamore lace bug measured seven temperatures ranged from 54.0 days at 18$^{\circ}$C to 17.9 days at 33$^{\circ}$C. Development was not successful at 15$^{\circ}$C and 35$^{\circ}$C. Developmental zero point and total effective temperature for development of egg, nymphal, and complete development were 1 1 .O, 10.9, ll.l$^{\circ}$C and 150.3, 230.6, 376.1 degree-days, respectively. Longevities of adult females varied to temperature from 51.8 days at 18$^{\circ}$C to 17.2 days at 33$^{\circ}$C. The average fecundity per female was greater at 25$^{\circ}$C and 28$^{\circ}$C compared with at other temperatures. The intrinsic rate of natural increase (r,) and net reproduction rate (R,) were highest at 28$^{\circ}$C as 0.170 and 73.25, respectively. As a result, optimum ranges of temperature for C. ciliata growth were between 25$^{\circ}$C and 28$^{\circ}$C.

This study was carried out to investigate the biological performance of the brownplanthopper, Nilaparvata lugens Stal, reared on rice plants at different growth stages; maximum tillering, booting, heading with and without panicles, and milking. The results obtained are as follows: The rice plants at the maximum tillering stage gave the best in the longevity, oviposition period, and the total number of oviposited eggs for the macropterous females, and the worst with the booting stage. For the brachypterous females, however, the best results were obtained from the rice of which their panicles had removed after heading. There was no significant difference in the hachability of eggs and the developmental period of the nymphs in the next generation, but the nymphal mortality was the highest with the milking stage and the lowest with the maximum tillering and heading stage without panicles. The longest life span was shown in males derived on the maximum tillering stage, and the shortest for milking(macropterous type) or booting (brachypterous type) stages. Coefficientes of variances in longevity and number of eggs for the adults emerged from heading stage without panicles were lower than those with panicles intact, and such trend was more obvious in brachypterous adults, especially for the females. The biological performances of the BPH have close relationship with the translocated organic material at the feeding site which showed considerable difference with the growth stages of the rice.

In 2016, the two-spotted cricket was approved as a general food ingredient by the Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. Additionally, the two-spotted crickets have high protein content (60%) and can be reared throughout the year even during the overwintering period. In this study, storage conditions were set in case cricket breeding was not possible due to problems such as breeding space and labor costs, and selection oviposition mats to determine high fecundity rates and low cannibalism rates for the eggs were investigated. The oviposition mat was mostly composed of soil (p < 0.05). Less than 62 crickets per 10 litters were found to be best suited for 1 day of spawning, based on the cannibalism rate of the eggs during the egg laying period. The results from the hatched eggs indicated that the hatching extended 12 to 14 days, and the best hatching rate was approximately 85% when stored at low temperatures(16℃) for 10 days. An efficient production proposed method that established the best oviposition mat and egg storage method for the cricket.
