  • This study was to investigate the effects of water temperature and food on the mass seed production of larval parrot fish, Oplegnathus fasciatus. Growth of the larvae reared at heated water temperature ($25.3^{\circ}C$) was significantly higher than that of the larvae reared at natural water temperature ($20.5^{\circ}C$). In addition, survival rate of the larvae at heated and natural sea water temperature were $24.0\%$ and $12.3\%$, respectively (P<0.05). Growth and survival rate of the larvae fed mixed diets of Nannochloropsis oculata, rotifer (Brachionus rotundiformis). Artemia nauplii, Tigriopus japonicus and artificial diets were significantly higher than that of the larvae fed only either rotifer or artificial diets (P<0.05). The average survival rate and total length of the larvae reared for 50 days after hatching were $22.5\%$ and 62.0$\pm$4.0 mm, respectively. Amount of consumed rotifers at one time feeding by a larva was rapidly increased with growth from 10.3 individuals per larva 5 day old to 65.5 individuals per larva 20 day old.

  • This study compared the results of observing the early life history of Gymnogobius urotaenia, which lives in Hwangbocheon Stream, an inflow stream on the east coast, with the differences between fish of the same Gobiidae fishes. In May 2022 and 2023, fertilized eggs and brood stork scattered under rocks were captured twice in Hwangbocheon Stream. The spawning amount was 827~1,540 and the orchid was a elliptical in shape with a size of 3.21×1.07 mm. The stage of ovulation observed in the laboratory was 16 cells, and hatching began after 193 hours. The breeding water temperature range was 18.8~19.3℃. Newly after hatching larvae, the yolk sac with a total length of 3.84~4.33 (average 4.10±0.17, n=30) mm, and the anus was not open. 6 days after hatching of incubation, the total length was 5.32~6.11 (average 5.67±0.25, n=30) mm, absorbing all egg yolk and transitioning to the preflexion larvae, ingesting food, and developing a keynote on the tail fin. 15 days after hatching, the end of the urostyle end was completely bent at 45° with a total length of 7.33~8.52 (average 7.81±0.46, n=30) mm and transitioned to postflexion larvae, and melanophore developed throughout the body. 38 days after hatching, the total length is 22.1~26.1 (23.8±1.36, n=30) mm and the number of fins (6 first dorsal fins, 11 second dorsal fins, and 11 anal fins, 12 ventral fins) is all the number of fin base became integer and transferred to the juvenile. As a result of the study, it was possible to distinguish the melanophore of postflexion larvae of G. urotaenia from other postflexion larvae Gobiidae fish in that they were distributed throughout the body of half the body and tail.

  • The purpose of this study was to determine the best method for minimizing the occurrence of Metarhizium anisopliae infection of Protaetia brevitarsis seluensis during mass breeding on agricultural farms. There is a high demand for the use of P. b. seluensis larvae in animal feed and as food for humans. However, mass breeding results in the entomopathogenic fungal (usually M. anisopliae) infection of P. b. seluensis. A mixture of microorganisms (Bacillus subtilis, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) delayed fungal infection by M. anisopliae, which infected fewer P. b. seluensis when the microorganism mixture was added to sawdust as feed for P. b. seluensis. When sawdust with the effective microorganisms (EM) was given to P. b. seluensis for 30 d, their mortality rate was approximately 35 % less than that of the control group, which was fed sawdust without the EM. In addition, the growth of M. anisopliae on agar media spread with each bacterium as inhibited by up to 80 % more than those spread with 4 % sodium hypochlorite, which is a harmless fungal inhibitor generally used in agricultural farms for disinfection.

  • The Hessian fly, Mayetiola destructor (Say), is known to be one of the major insect herbivores of wheat worldwide. In order to provide molecular events on interactions of the NIL with H21 and larvae of Hessian fly biotype L, the TaCR1 gene, Triticum aestivum cytokinin repressed 1, was isolated through the suppression subtractive hybridization, which was constructed using stems of the NIL with H21 at 6 days after infestation as tester and stems of the recurrent parent Coker797 without H21 at 6 days after infestation as driver. Transcript levels of TaCR1 mRNA in the NIL with H21 were highest at 6 days after infestation but in the Coker797 without H21 until 8 days were similar with those of non-infested plants. Expression of the TaCR1 gene was decreased at early time and then recovered after wounding or $H_2O$$_2$ treatment as well as 6-BAP treatment. Transcripts levels of the TaCR1 gene was changed after MeJA, SA, ethephone, or ABA treatment. In drought treatment, the TaCRl gene were increased at early stage of stress and then decreased at late stage. Expression of the TaCRl gene was continued to decrease through 24 h in the cold treatment. Although the TaCRl gene is increased through infestation in NIL with H21, further study was required to elucidate a role on resistance against larvae of Hessian fly. However, the TaCR1 gene could be used as marker gene on response of plants against abiotic stresses as well as application of plants with several hormones.

  • A breeding programme was initiated during 2001 utilizing two polyvoltine silkworm breeds viz. $BL_{69}$, an evolved breed tolerant to high temperature and MAR, comparatively resistant to Bombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV) with the objective to develop robust polyvoltine breeds and hybrids. The breed $NP_1$ was developed by exposing the fifth instar larvae to high temperature $(36{\pm}1^{\circ}C)$, high Relative Humidity ($85{\pm}5%$ R.H.) and inoculating third instar larvae with BmNPV inoculum. At $F_{12}$, the breed was tested for hybrid forming ability utilizing six bivoltine silkworm breeds viz. $CSR_2,\;CSR_4,\;CSR_{17},\;CSR_{18},\;CSR_{19}\;and\;NB_4D_2$. The hybrid $'NP_1{\times}CSR_{17}'$ exhibited its superiority by recording 97.2% survival, 1.892 g cocoon weight, 0.406 g cocoon shell weight, 21.5% cocoon shell ratio, 16.6% raw silk percentage and 890 m filament length whereas the control $(PM{\times}CSR_2)$ has recorded 90.2% survival, 1.599 g cocoon weight, 0.304 g cocoon shell weight, 18.9% cocoon shell ratio, 13.1 % raw silk percentage and 768 m filament length. Commercial exploitation of the new $polyvoltine{\times}bivoltine$ hybrid in sericulture industry has been discussed.

  • An investigation on the breeding time of the Mangrove oyster, Crassostrea rhizaphorae, in the lagoon of Cocineta which is located in the northwestern part of Venezuela was carried out from February through May in 1976. Surface water temperature was high, over $25^{\circ}C$ and specific gravity was around 1.0258. Transparency to water depth varied between 29 and $80\%$. The range of water content of the oysters increased from February through May. However, the averge monthly range of water content varied only slightly from 80.67 to $82.25\%$. From the numbers of matured planktonic larvae together with total numbers of planktonic larvae found, we may assume that the best seedling period is from late April through early May. We may also assume that the best area is around stations 4 and 3, station 3 being slightly better than station 4.

  • Occasionally, We make mistake of discrimination of sex since a pair of small spots around tile abdomen of 9th abdominal of males and posterior spots of females of the silkworms larvae are found at almost same position. As already have reported, more larvae which have the small spots were found in Chinese race than the Japanese. This research has been conducted in order to grasp the rate of appearance of the small spotted larvae hereditarily when hybridize with different race (F$_1$) 1. According to the first report, average 17,8% of the small spotted larvae are found in the Japanese race and 57.0% in the Chinese, but my re-invested data which was carried out recently shows that average 13.6% in the former case and 37.8% in the latter. Those new data are supposed to be come to a conclusion that the figures are flexible but in any case high frequency of appearance of the larvae were found in the Chinese race than the Japanese (Reference Table 1 ) 2. Miscalculated ratio of the larvae from males to females are 1.2-2.6%, and from females to males are found 0.5%-0.9% in the Japanese race, In case of the Chinese race, 7.1-9.4% in tile former and 2.9-3.4% in the latter. Those data also shows that more of the larvae found in Chinese race. 3. The larvae of small spotted and non-spotted are also seperated when hlybridize with different mating types and races. 4. More small spotted larvae are seen when hybridize with less appeared of the small spots of females and males which have the small spots than more appeared of the small spots of females with none spotted of the males (Reference Table 2. C.G.)B.F.). 5. More larvae of the small spots and found in case of hybridize in a group of having small spots than none of the spots (H>E). 6. With the exception of the case (A.B), in the same type of cross breeding (C.D, E.F, G,H), more larvae of the smal1 spots are also found in case of hybridize with males of having the spots than none of the spots.

  • In order to standardize the juvenile abalone rearing technique, we selected sample farms by region in East, West and South coasts of Korea and Jeju island. We also have reviewed previous literature and visited farms to survey on the management of abalone juvenile production, spawning, hatching and so forth. Results of investigation are as follows: The light colors of tanks for larvae breeding are good for a frequent examination of larvae behaviour changes during the breeding period. The tank for the abalone juvenile production is a rectangular form in general and its size should amount to 3.5 m in length and 1.2 m width. It also should be built with proper drainage. The best age and size of adult for juvenile production are 3-6 years old individuals, with 9-12 cm separate burial and 125-150 g average weight. To induce spawning, the use of the exposure on air and ultraviolet ray together was the most effective. The density of larvae by plate should be 150-300 individuals and the proper stocking density was est imated and amount to 10-30 individuals. It has been shown that a correlation between water surface size($X_1$) and number of plates ($Y_1$), when producing abalone juveniles, is quite high and it is described by equation $Y_1=138.88X_1-5,736.8\;(R^2=0.9028)$. In addition, it has also been shown that a correlation between production of abalone juveniles ($Y_2$) and number of plates ($X_2$) is high and it is described by equation $Y_2=4.554X_2+12,493\;(R^2=0.8818)$. In Jindo region where a mass production of juveniles abalone has been done, it was shown, that a correlation between rearing water surface size ($X_3$) and production of juveniles abalone ($Y_3$) is very high and this relationship was described by the equation $Y_3=747.03X_2+94,359(R^2=0.9809)$. It has also been shown that a correlation between water surface size ($X_4$) and production of abalone juveniles ($Y_4$) in nationwide is high and the relationship between this variables was described by equation $Y_4=635.85X_4+99,923\;(R^2=0.9020)$.

  • Pathogenicity of entomopathogenic nematde, Steinernema carpocapsae Pocheon strain (ScP) was evaluated against different larval stages(2nd, 3-4th and 5th) of Anomis commode and Anomis mesogona(Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in petri dish and pot. The $LC_{50}$ values were increased in proportion to larval stage of A. commoda and A. mesogona. $LC_{50}$ value of ScP against 2nd instar of A. commoda and A. mesogona was 9.7 and 4.5, respectively. The 2nd instar of both species was also susceptible to ScP in pot test. That is, mortality of 2nd instar of A. commode and A. mesogona was higher representing $72.5\%\;and\;87.5\%$ 5 days later after treatment, respectively, when ScP was applied at the ,ate of 90,000 infective juveniles(Ijs) per $pot(=1\times10^9\;Ijs/ha)$. However, susceptibility was decreased from 3rd instar. Mortality of 5th instar of A. commoda and A. mesogona was $5.0\%\;and\;10.0\%$, respectively, at the rate of 90,000 Ijs/pot. When ScP was applied into pot including mixed larval stages from 2nd to 5th instar(10 larvae far 2nd instar, 10 larvae for 3rd - 4th instars, and 10 larvae for 5th instar) at the rate of 90,000 Ijs/pot, mortality of A. commoda and A. mesogona was $69.2\%\;and\;50.0\%$, respectively.
