  • Iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoclusters exhibit significant potential in the biomedical and pharmaceutical fields due to their strong magnetic properties, stability in solutions, and compatibility with living systems. They excel in magnetic separation processes, displaying high responsiveness to external magnetic fields. In contrast to conventional Fe2O3 nanoparticles that can aggregate in aqueous solutions due to their ferrimagnetic properties, these nanoclusters, composed of multiple nanoparticles, maintain their magnetic traits even when scaled to hundreds of nanometers. In this study, we develop a simple method using solvothermal synthesis to precisely control the size of nanoclusters. By adjusting precursor materials and reducing agents, we successfully control the particle sizes within the range of 90 to 420 nm. Our study not only enhances the understanding of nanocluster creation but also offers ways to improve their properties for applications such as magnetic separation. This is supported by our experimental results highlighting their size-dependent magnetic response in water. This study has the potential to advance both the knowledge and practical utilization of Fe2O3 nanoclusters in various applications.

  • 본 연구에서 부산, 창원, 제주도 일대에서 채취한 토양으로부터 분리한 균주를 이용하여 식물 병원성 곰팡이에 대해서 길항작용을 나타내는 것을 확인하였으며, 또한 분리 균주의 경우 세균성 균주에 대해서도 길항작용을 나타내는 것을 확인하였다. 이러한 길항작용은 Bacillus 속이 생산하는 2차 대사산물인 siderophore, 항생물질, 세포 외 효소 활성 등에 의해서 식물 병원성 곰팡이에 대한 길항작용을 나타내는 것으로 보이며, 특히 분리 균주로부터 생산되는 세포 외 효소는 식물 병원성 곰팡이의 세포벽에 용균작용 일으킴에 따라 세포벽을 분해하여 식물 병원성 곰팡이의 생장을 저해할 것으로 생각된다. 또한 질소 고정능 및 IAA 생성능을 통해 식물 생장 촉진 및 식물 병원성 곰팡이 성장을 억제시킬 수 있는 생물학적 제제로서 식물재배에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다. 최종 선별된 Bacillus subtilis ANGa5, Bacillus aerius ANGa25, Bacillus methylotrophicus ANGa27를 이용하여 식물 병원성 곰팡이 방제 및 식물 생장촉진활성을 가지는 새로운 생물학적 제제로서 이용 가능성을 제시한다.

  • Aphids are one of the most destructive pests in crop production such as pepper, cucumber, and eggplants. The importance of entomopathogenic fungi as alternative pest control agents is increasing. Conidia of entomopathogenic fungi are influenced by environmental conditions, such as temperature and relative humidity, and cause slow and fluctuating mortality. These factors have prevented wider application and use of biocontrol agents. For investigation of means of mitigation of such problems, we conducted bioassays with 47 fungal culture filtrates in order to evaluate the potential of secondary metabolites produced by entomopathogenic fungi for use in aphid control. Among 47 culture filtrates cultured potato dextrose broth, filtrate of Beauveria bassiana Bb08 showed the highest mortality (78%) against green peach aphid three days after treatments. Filtrate of Bb08 cultured in Adamek's medium showed higher toxicity as 100% to third instar nymphs of the aphid compared with seven other filtrates cultured in different broths amended with colloidal chitin or oil. The culture filtrates and fungal cultures from media amended with colloidal chitin or oil had lower control efficacies than filtrates without these additives in three different media. These results indicate that the fungal culture fluid or culture filtrate of B. bassiana Bb08 cultured in Adamek's medium has potential for development as a mycopesticide for aphid control.

  • 들잔디 재배지역에 갈색퍼짐병을 방제하기 위하여 Tebuconazole 약제 및 Streptomyces sp.와 Burkholderia sp. 미생물을 처리하였다. 무처리구에 비해 Tebuconazole 약제 처리구, Streptomyces sp., Burkholderia sp.와 Streptomyces S8 미생물 처리구는 잔디의 생육, 엽록소와 카로티노이드, 프롤린 함량은 유의하게 증가하였며, MDA 함량은 감소하였다. 토양미생물인 Streptomyces sp., Burkholderia sp.와 Streptomyces sp. S8 처리에 따라 갈색퍼짐병 병원균밀도 감소로 갈색퍼짐병의 증상이 완화되어 정상적인 잔디로 생육이 된 것으로 판단되었다. 이러한 결과는 사용된 미생물이 잔디의 생물적 방제와 잔디의 생육 촉진 미생물로 이용될 수 있음을 시사한다.

  • 부영양호수의 남조 Microcystis aeruginosa 제어를 위해 호수 바닥층에서 분리한 살조세균과 섬모충을 현장여과수를 이용하여 조류배양조건과 동일한 조건에서 단일 또는 혼합적용하여 그 결과를 서로 비교하였다. 두 생물제재는 저자들의 선행연구와 같이 단일 적용시 매우효과적인 반면, 혼합적용시 오히려 조류의 성장을 촉진하였다. 결국 남조 Microcystis제어를 위한 섬모충이나 박테리아의 적용은 다른 한 생물군의 낮은 밀도를 요구하였으며, 이처럼 동일 조류에 대한 제어능을 갖는 두 생물제재의 배타적인 관계는 앞으로 부영양호수의 남조대발생 제어에 귀중한 자료로서 제공될 것이다.

  • A bacterial strain isolated from soil for its potential to control the anthracnose disease caused by Colletotrichum gloeosporioides was identified as a Bacillus subtilis. Bacillus subtilis CMB32 produced antifungal agents on M9 broth at $30^{\circ}C$. Biosurfactant lipopeptides produced by Bacillus subtilis CMB32 were precipitated by adjusting to pH 2 and extracting using chloroform/methanol, and then were purified using column chromatography and reverse-phase HPLC. The molecular masses of the lipopeptides were estimated by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry as (a) 1,080, (b) 1,486, and (c) 1,044 Da, respectively. They had cyclic structures and amino acid compositions of (a) Pro, Asx, Ser, Tyr, Glx, (b) Glx, Tyr, Thr, Ala, Pro, lie, and (c) Glx, Leu, Val, Asx, respectively. Further analysis revealed that Bacillus subtilis CMB32 produced three antifungal lipopeptides: (a) iturin A, (b) fengycin, and (c) surfactin A.

  • Fungicidal, insecticidal, and mosquito larvicidal activities of piperidine alkaloids, pipernonaline and piperoctadecalidine, and isobutylamide alkaloids, pellitorine, guineensine, pipercide, and retrofractaminde A, derived from Piperaceae fruits were studied. Pipernonaline and piperoctadecalidine showed potent fungicidal activities against Puccinia recondita with 91 and 80% control values at 500 ppm. Against Phytophthora infestans, pipernonaline showed strong fungicidal activity with 91 and 80% control values at 1,000 and 500 ppm. $LD_{50}$ values of pipernonaline and piperoctadecalidine against Plutella xylostella were 125 and 95.5 ppm, respectively, and that of piperoctadecalidine against Tetranychus urticae was 246 ppm. Against larvae of Aedes aegypti and Culex pipiens pallens, $LD_{50}$ values of pipernonaline were 0.35 and 0.21 ppm, respectively. Highest larvicidal activities of pipercide and retrofractamide A were found against A. aegypti, A. togoi, and C. pipiens pallens. $LD_{50}$ values of pipercide and retrofractamide A were 0.10 and 0.039 ppm against A. aegypti, 0.26 and 0.01 ppm against A. togoi, and 0.004 and 0.028 ppm against C. pipiens pallens, respectively. Based upon these results and earlier findings, bioactive components derived from Piperaceae fruits may be valuable for development of useful lead product of possibly safer fungicidal, insecticidal, and mosquito larvicidal agents.

  • 고추를 가해하는 담배나방(Helicoverpa assulta ($Guen\acute{e}e$))의 최적 방제 적기는 과실 내부로 침투하기 이전 시기인 알과 어린 유충으로 인식되고 있다. 본 연구는 담배나방의 이러한 감수성 발육시기를 대상으로 하는 효과적 생물적 방제 기술을 개발하는 데 목표를 두었다. 쌀좀알벌(Trichogramma evanescens Westwood)은 알기생봉으로 담배나방 알도 기생시키는 것이 본 연구를 통해 관찰되었다. 그람양성균인 토양 곤충병원세균(Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. kurstaki)과 그람음성균인 곤충병원세균(Xenorhabdus nematophila ANU101)은 어린 담배나방 유충을 대상으로 상호 협력적 병원력을 발휘하였다. 고추 포장의 담배나방 성충 발생은 페로몬트랩을 통해 모니터링하였다. 혼합 미생물제제는 접촉과 섭식 독성 분석 모두에서 쌀좀알벌의 유충 발육과 성충 생존에 영향을 주지 않는 것으로 판명되었다. 담배나방 성충 발생이 성페로몬 트랩으로 확인된 시기에 고추포장에 쌀좀알벌과 미생물제제의 혼합 처리가 실시되었다. 혼합 생물방제 처리는 화학농약과 비슷한 수준으로 과실의 피해를 현저히 감소시킨 반면, 단독 생물방제 처리는 효과가 현저히 낮았다. 아울러 본 연구는 쌀좀알벌의 형태적 및 유전적 특징을 분석했다.
