  • The traditional oviposition ground for indoor breeding of Luciola lateralis is moss. This study was conducted to find the most suitable alternative oviposition ground that can maintain or increase the oviposition rate of L. lateralis while addressing the problems of larva collection time and larva loss that occur when moss is used. As alternative candidate oviposition ground comprising six colors of non-woven fabric and felt were used to measure the fecundity variation rate of L. lateralis with respect to the color and material of the oviposition ground. In addition, measure the fecundity variation rate of L. lateralis in moss, a traditional oviposition ground, was also measured and investigated for comparison. The investigation showed that the average number of eggs in the non-woven fabric group was higher than that in the felt group. The yellow non-woven fabric had an average number of eggs that was more than 100 times higher than of moss used as a traditional oviposition ground. In the space where the six color non-woven fabric were together, L. lateralis concentrated its oviposition on yellow. These results showed that yellow non-woven fabric can be sufficiently used for efficient indoor mass breeding of L. lateralis while addressing problems caused by moss, a traditional oviposition ground.

  • The effect of photoperiodic regimes on the oviposition and colony development of Bombus ignitus queens was examined with 0L, 8L, and 16L under $27^{\circ}C$ and 65% R. H. Among these photoperiod regimes, the oviposition rate at 8L and 16L was 80.2% and 83.1%, respectively, which was 12-15% higher than that at the dark condition (0L). Duration up to first oviposition at 8L and 16L was 17.5 days and 16.5 days, respectively, which was 2-3 days shorter than that at 0L. The colony foundation rate at 8L and 16L was 9.2% and 10.4%, respectively, which corresponded to 1.7-2.0-fold higher than the value at 0L. In addition, the rate of progeny-queen production at 8L and 16L was also two fold higher than that at 0L. Taken these together, the light conditions (8L and 16L) rather than dark condition (0L) were more suitable for oviposition and colony development for B. ignitus in the indoor rearing condition.

  • It was investigated whether developmental characteristics of foundation queens of Bombus ignitus collected in the 4 localities in Korea would be affected by the first oviposition days of them. The first ovipostion day was classified as 1-4 days (immediate early), 5-6days (early), 7-10 days (delayed early), 11-20 days{medium), 21- 40 days (late), and above 41 days (very late). The queen that had the early first oviposition day, i.e., laid eggs so early after starting to be raised indoors, showed much higher rate of colony foundation and progeny-queen production and much shorter period of colony foundation and worker emergence. Besides, the numbers of worker and progeny-queen emerged from the queen that had the early first oviposition day were higher than those of the queen that had the late first oviposition. In results, the queen that had the early first oviposition day could make colony stronger and could make colony formation period shorter, therefore, the first oviposition day of foundation queen was proved to be a criterion for the selection of super colonies when B. ignitus is raised indoors.

  • It was investigated whether or not flight has any effects on oviposition and colony development of the artificially hibernated Bombus terrestris queen and ,$CO_2$-treated queen. Flight periods were defined as 0 days (control), 1 day, 3 days and 6 days. The weights of queens after flight were 1.5-8.9% lower than those before flight depending on the flight periods. The oviposition and colony development of artificially hibernated and $CO_2$-treated B. terrestris queen were affected by the flight. Among flight periods tested, in particular, the queens start to flight for 3 days showed better flight effect than those other flight periods in the colony development, rate of colony foundation, rate of progeny-queen production, the number of worker and queen produced. But, the longer the flight periods is, the worse the oviposition and colony development of the queens hibernated artificially and $CO_2$-treated are (i.e., the 6 days-flight queen).

  • The present study was investigated the oviposition characteristics of Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis with a focus on winter larvae to improve the utilization of insect resources. The average oviposition tendency and average cumulative number of eggs laid during a 7-week period were measured in adults emerging from larvae that had hibernated for 4 months in five farmhouses. The study covered five zones: Gimje, Jangsu, Wanju, Iksan and Yeoju. The average oviposition tendency over a 7-week period showed increased egg laying between 2 to 3 weeks and 5 to 6 weeks. Overall, it was found that the average cumulative number of eggs laid during the 7-week period was initially low and increased proportionally with time. Our results suggest that using adults that have emerged from hibernated larvae is effective in increasing the oviposition rate and utilization of the insect.

  • 호박벌(Bombus ignitus)에 대한 탄산가스의 휴면타파 효과를 검토하였다. 65%, 99% 농도의 탄산가스처리 결과, 산란율은 무처리구의 50%에 비하여 65%와 99%의 탄산가스에 접촉시킨 시험구에서 각각 75%와 77%로 증가하였고, 첫산란소요일수 또한 무처리구에서 30일이 걸린데 비하여 65%와 99%의 시험구에서는 각각 18일과 17일로 단축되어 뚜렷한 탄산가스 처리효과가 나타났다. 그러나 65%와 99%의 시험구 간에는 차이가 보이지 않아 65-99%범위에서는 어느 농도의 탄산가스를 사용해도 좋을 것으로 생각되었다. 또한 탄산가스 최적 처리시기를 구명하기 위하여, 교미 후 1일부터 4일째까지 탄산가스를 처리한 결과, 산란성과 봉세발달이 교미 후 2일째가 가장 우수하여 최적 시기로 판명되었다. 그러나 호박벌에 대한 탄산가스 처리는 산란성과 봉세발달에는 긍정적인 효과를 보였지만, 차세대 출현수가 월동 여왕벌보다 적어 탄산가스 처리만으로는 상품성 있는 호박벌 봉군을 연중 생산하는 방법으로 부적당한 것으로 판단되었다.

  • 본 연구는 백색레그흔 산란계에 있어서 초산후 일령의 1일중 방란시간의 경과가 란중, 란각질, 란형계수에 미치는 영향을 구명하기 위하여 1986년 9월 1일부터 1987년 1월 6일까지 약 4개월간에 걸쳐 산란계 150수를 가지고 시험을 실시한 결과, 초산후 일령이 경과함에 따라 방란비율이 오전중에는 감소했고 오후에는 증가했다. 란중은 270일령까지는 증가속도가 빨랐으나 그 이후에는 둔화되었다. 란각두께는 일령이 경과함에 따라 얇아졌고 란각강도도 일령이 경과됨에 따라 저하되었으며 란형계수는 커졌다. 1일중 방란시간이 늦어짐에 따라 란중은 점차 가벼워졌으며 발란시간에 대한 란중의 회귀계수는 -0.6788--0.4170로 방란시간이 1시간 늦어짐에 따라 란중은 0.4170-0.6788g이 가벼워졌다. 란각두께는 방란시간이 1시간 늦어짐에 따라 0.00377-0.00643mm씩 두꺼워졌으며 란각강도는 방란시간이 1시간 늦어짐에 따라 0.0287-0.0349kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$씩 향상되었다. 그러나 란형계수는 방란시간과 서로 상호관계가 없는 것으로 사료된다.

  • Bumblebees are widely used to pollinate crops in greenhouses and fields. Here, we investigated whether different wake-up treatments during a short period of 1~3 days just before indoor rearing has any effects on oviposition and colony development of $CO_2$-treated Bombus ignitus queens and artificially hibernated B. terrestris queens The wake-up regimes were defined as 16L for 1 day (16L-1), 16 L per day for 3 days (16L-3), 24L for 1 day (24L-1), or 24D for 1 day (24D-1). Among these wake-up treatments, the oviposition rate and preoviposition period of B. ignitus queens reared at 24L-1 were 16.7~25.1% higher and 1.0~3.5 days shorter than other wake-up treatments. B. terrestris queens reared at 24L-1 also showed the best results for egg-laying characteristics, which were 8.9~18.8% higher for oviposition and 0.6~3.5 days shorter for preovipostion period than other wake-up treatments. Furthermore, B. terrestris queens reared at 24L-1 were 17.5% and 13.8% higher in rate of colony foundation and queen production, respectively, than other wake-up treatments. These results show that the most favorable wake-up treatment just before rearing for egg-laying and colony developmental characteristics of B. ignitus and B. terrestris queens was 24L-1. Overall, our findings indicate that a wake-up treatment just before rearing was effective for colony initiation and colony development of bumblebee queens.
