Feeding behaviors of the sweet potato whitefly, Bemisia tabaci, and changing of their feeding behaviors were recorded and analyzed with an Electrical Penetration Graph (EPG) analysis against cyantraniliprole. The characteristic patterns of feeding behaviors investigated were as follows; NP (non probing), pathway phase waveform, waveform of feeding xylem. In results, B. tabaci did not almost feeding the phloem. And It was not appeared potential drop during recording time. It was predominantly indicated pathway activity waveform and waveform of xylem feeding. After treatment of cyantraniliprole with recommended concentrations to tomato plants, EPG waveforms were recorded during 3 hours. Cyantraniliprole treatment showed longer time to first feeding xylem than untreated (P=0.043). It was showed shorter duration of first feeding xylem than untreated (P=0.017). And it was showed longer NP (non-probing) time than untreated. Consequently, It was supposed that cyantraniliprole was effect of anti-feeding or avoidance to B. tabaci.

BACKGROUND: Cyantraniliprole is a systemic diamide insecticide that has been used to control lepidopteran pests in agriculture. Cyantraniliprole has become an issue due to its potentiality of unexpectable contamination in rotational crop cultivation. Thus, studies on the evaluation of cyantraniliprole translocated from soil into rotational crops are required. METHODS AND RESULTS: Cyantraniliprole was treated at a yearly maximum application level onto bare soil under greenhouse conditions in two geographically different regions. Lettuce was transplanted and spinach and radish were sown onto the soil 30 and 60 days-plant back intervals (PBIs) after cyantraniliprole treatment. The QuEChERS method was modified and coupled with LC/MS/MS analysis to determine the residues of cyantraniliprole in soil and plant samples. The methods for sample preparation and instrumental conditions were validated to meet the criteria of Codex guidelines and were successful to determine cyantraniliprole quantitatively and qualitatively in the samples. Cyantraniliprole residues in lettuce samples were 0.01 mg/kg for PBI 60 and 0.02 mg/kg for PBI 30, respectively. The residues in spinach samples were 0.01 mg/kg for PBI 60 and 0.01~0.02 mg/kg for PBI 30, respectively. Less than limit of the quantitation (LOQ) level (0.01 mg/kg) of cyantraniliprole was observed in radish samples. The residues in the plant samples were found as the levels less than maximum residue limit (MRL) for leafy and root vegetables. CONCLUSION(S): This study suggests PBI 30~60 days for rotational cultivation of lettuce, spinach and radish in greenhouse soil treated with cyantraniliprole at a yearly maximum application level.

The susceptibility of Aphis gossypii populations collected from three fields (WJ, CC, and GS) was evaluated to three insecticides (afidopyropen, chlorfenapyr and cyantraniliprole) and three binary mixtures. Three field populations showed resistance ratios of over 100 to all insecticides. The Combination Index (CI), %M_(synergism), Co-Toxicity Coefficient (CTC), Wadley Ratio (WR), Synergism Ratio (SR) and Abbott Ratio (AR) were used to evaluate combined effect of the insecticides. Afidopyropen + chlorfenapyr (CI ≤ 0.16; %M_(synergism) ≥ 94; CTC ≥ 764.5; WR ≥ 6.4; SR ≥ 6.9 and AR ≥ 1.1) showed a synergism in all filed populations. WJ and CC populations showed a synergism in all binary mixtures of insecticides, but GS population showed an antagonism for chlorfenapyr + cyantraniliprole (CI, 1.63; %M_(synergism), 30; CTC, 64.0; WR, 0.6 and AR, 0.54) and afidopyropen + cyantraniliprole (CI, 6.7; %M_(synergism), 1; CTC, 19.8; WR, 0.2 and AR ≤ 0.55). All mixtures (afidopyropen + chlorfenapyr, chlorfenapyr + cyantraniliprole and afidopyropen + cyantraniliprole) showed a control value of over 99% after 21 days of treatment in the field. This study highlights that binary mixtures of three insecticides serve as an effective control strategy for A. gossypii.

Cyantraniliprole, which is an ananthranilic diamide insecticide that was developed by the DuPont Corporation, was registered in the Republic of Korea in 2012. It offers exceptional insecticidal activity on a broad range of Lepidopera, Coleoptera, Diptera, and Isoptera. The maximum residue limits are set to pepper, peach, apple, sweet pepper, welsh onion, and so on (0.2~2.0 mg/kg). Therefore, an analytical method for determining cyantraniliprole residue in agricultural products was developed to ensure food safety. In previous studies, welsh onions were among vegetables included in the allium species, which is a representative plant with sulfur organic compounds. In this study, the analytical method was developed and evaluated for the elimination of sulfur compounds from the test solution of allium species during pesticide residue analysis. In order to inactivate the enzyme allinase and produce sulfur compounds, sample extraction was made in the base state pH 10 by reducing the activity of the enzyme. The recoveries of the developed method ranged from 81.9% to 83.2%, and the relative standard deviations were less than 10%. Therefore, based on the results, the method developed in this study is accurate and appropriate for use in cyantraniliprole determination. It will be used as the official method for managing the safety of cyantraniliprole residues in agricultural products.

To control Bemisia tabaci on tomato, we applied five different combinations of chemical treatments as below: 1) treatment of combinations of cyantraniliprole on the root area and leaf with the existing registered chemicals three times; 2) treatment of combinations of cyantraniliprole on the root area and dinotefuran + emamectin benzoate on the leaf with the existing registered chemicals three times; 3) treatment of combinations of dinotefuran on the root area and cyantraniliprole on the leaf with the existing registered chemicals three times; 4) treatment of combinations of dinotefuran on the root area and dinotefuran + emamectin benzoate on the leaf with the existing registered chemicals three times; 5) untreated control plot (Table 1). Twenty days after treatment ($17^{th}$ Aug.), the number of population of B. tabaci was zero on the 1, 2, 3, 4 treatments of combinations, and only 2 individuals were found on the 5 treatment of combination per each 20 plant. On $17^{th}$ Sep., in the last observation, the average number of population of B. tabaci was 10.3, 10.3, 10.6 on the 1, 2, 3 treatments of combinations on the 20 plants per each combination, however, the average number of 23.3 and 37.6 were examined on the 4 and 5 treatments of combinations, respectively. TYLCV was not occurring on the 1 and 2 treatments of combinations, and presented only 3% and 17% on the 3 and 4 treatments of combinations, respectively, which indicates that the treatments (1-4) should be effective on TYLCV control as considering that 33% of TYLCV occurred on the untreated control plot. However, after the third flowering period, there is no difference among the five combinations. The amount of products was 9,148g and 9,698g on the 1 and 2 treatments of combinations, respectively, which was the most among the 5 combinations. The number of fallen fruits and the average weight of fruits showed the similar tendency.

Various chemical pesticides are used to control diamondback moths, Plutella xylostella, which are agricultural pests that occur in cruciferous crops worldwide and cause economic losses. However, due to pesticide misuse, resistance to P. xylostella is consistently reported domestically and internationally. Therefore, we aimed to monitor and map regional resistance to devise efficient and economical control methods for P. xylostella in Korea. This study selected eight highly used insecticides among those registered against P. xylostella. P. xylostella were collected from three cities in the Gyeonggi and Yeongnam Provinces to evaluate insecticide resistance. As a result of experiments with populations collected from Yeoju, Gyeonggi Province, resistance ratios were 114.88, 54.75, 119.00, and 64.00 times higher than the susceptible population with methoxyfenozide, indoxacarb, cyantraniliprole, and fluxametamide, respectively. The resistance ratios of the Yongin population in Gyeonggi Province were 166.33 times with cyantraniliprole and 195.25 times with fluxametamide higher than the susceptible population. The Pocheon population in Gyeonggi Province showed a resistance ratio 283.23 times higher than methoxyfenozide. As a result of experiments with populations collected from Gimhae and Sangju, Yeongnam Province, the resistance ratios of the Gimhae population were 80.97, 138.00, and 89.50 times higher than the susceptible population with methoxyfenozide, cyantraniliprole, and fluxametamide, respectively. Meanwhile, the resistance ratios of the Sangju population were 85.83, 224.67, and 303.25 times higher than the susceptible population with methoxyfenozide, cyantraniliprole, and fluxametamide, respectively. The Yeongnam Province Tongyeong population showed a resistance ratio 367.28 times higher to methoxyfenozide.

A series of studies were conducted to monitor the seasonal occurrences of onion thrips (Thrips tabaci) and allium leafminers (Acrolepiopsis sapporensis) in northern-type garlic fields, and to evaluate their susceptibility to insecticides. The results showed that the T. tabaci population density increased from mid- March to mid-June, that of A. sapporensis began to increase in mid-March and peaked twice by early July. Also, using recommended concentrations, the insecticidal activities of nine insecticides against these two pests were evaluated. Under laboratory conditions, clothianidin SC, chlorfenapyr EC, dimethoate EC, imidacloprid WP, and cyantraniliprole + thiamethoxam WG insecticidal activities against T. tabaci were all 100%, as well as. those of cyantraniliprole EC, pyridalyl EW, spinetoram SG and abamectin + chlorantraniliprole SC against A. sapporensis. Insecticides, with high insecticidal activities, were evaluated on the two pests under laboratory conditions, and the results showed that all the insecticides exhibited strong insecticidal activities, and the mortality of two pests was >90%.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the density of thrips, and insecticidal resistance for effective control of Western flower thrips in greenhouse. The presence and density of the thrips was investigated using yellow colored-sticky trap in a cucumber field from May to August in Cheon-an. The results of the investigation revealed the existence of the following thrips species; Frankliniella occidentalis, F. intonsa, Thrips palmi, T. tabaci, Scirtothrips dorsalis, Microcephalothrips abdominalis, and T. nigropilosus. The predominant pest was found to be the western flower thrips. To survey the western flower thrips insecticidal resistance, we established the discriminating concentration (DC), recommended concentration (RC) and $2{\times}$recommended concentration ($2{\times}RC$) of nine insecticides; Emamectin benzoate EC, spinetoram SC, Chlorfenapyr EC, Spinosad SC, Cyantraniliprole EC, Acetamiprid WP, Dinotefuran WG, thiacloprid SC and thiamethoxam SC. The bioassay of about five local populations was conducted using the leaf-dipping method. In all local populations, insecticidal resistance in western flower thrips had not developed in emamectin benzoate EC (RC, $10.8{\mu}L\;L^{-1}$), chlorfenapyr EC (RC, $50.0{\mu}L\;L^{-1}$), spinetoram SC (RC, $25.0mg\;L^{-1}$), and spinosad SC (RC, $50.0mg\;L^{-1}$). However, insecticidal resistance in RC was found to have developed in cyantraniliprole EC (RC, $50.0{\mu}L\;L^{-1}$) and four insecticides of neonicotinoid type. Insecticidal activity of 95% or more was observed in each population when cyantraniliprole EC tested in $2{\times}RC$. However, the neonicotinoid types showed different insecticidal activity in $2{\times}RC$.

In this study we aimed to find out pesticide types with probability for underestimation of dietary exposure to pesticide residues in Korea by comparing the residue definitions between Korea and Codex standards. In addition, we sought to establish priorities regarding the necessity of review concerning pesticide types and their impacts based on the risk assessment and dietary exposure underestimation. As a result, we found that according to the residue definition information, 44 pesticides have probability for underestimation in terms of dietary exposure assessments. Among them, 24 pesticides have priority for review of dietary exposure underestimation and its impacts on risk assessment, based on the ADI values of pesticides, Korean MRL information and toxicological information of metabolite. The 24 pesticides were as follows: acibensolar-S-methyl, chlorfenapyr, chlorothalonil, cyantraniliprole, cyclaniliprole, cyflumetofen, dithiocarbamates, fenamidone, fenpyroximate, fluazifop-P-butyl, fluopicolide, flupyradifuron, fluxapyroxad, glyphosate, hexythiazox, isoprothiolane, isopyrazam, myclobutanil, penthiopyrad, propiconazole, spinetoram, spiromesifen, spirotetramat, trifloxystrobin. Furthermore, chlorfenapyr, chlorothalonil, dithiocarbamates and fenamidone may have considered a top priority for review due to greater toxicity of metabolite. This study could be of great use for improvement on risk assessment approaches in South Korea regarding pesticide residues in food commodities.
