Abstract

The black cutworm, Agrotis ipsilon (Hufnagel), damages various cultivated crops and it can also be a serious pest of turfgrass, especially on golf courses. Essential oils have potential as alternative control agents for insect pests. Sixteen essential oils (anise, camphor, cinnamon, citronella, clove, fennel, geranium, lavender, lemongrass, linseed, neem, peppermint, pine, thyme, turpentine and tea saponin) and paraffin oil were assessed in the laboratory, the green house and field trials for their efficacy against black cutworms in turf. Treatment of potted cores of perennial ryegrass turf with anise, cinnamon, neem, paraffin or turpentine reduced black cutworm damage in a greenhouse trial, and in a similar trial, applying neem oil at 4000, 2000 and 1000 ppm resulted in 100, 100 and 64% mortality, respectively, of black cutworms. Weight of survivors at the 1000 ppm rate was 5- fold less than weight of comparably-aged controls. Neem oil (2000 ppm) reduced growth of black cutworms feeding on treated clippings. A high rate of neem oil followed by irrigation (0.1 L of 20000 ppm neem oil with 0.9 L watering/$m^2$) was more effective than a lower concentration (1 L of 2000 ppm neem oil/$m^2$) against $2^{nd}$ and $3^{rd}$ instars in potted turf cores and field plots, respectively. However, not even the aforementioned higher rate effectively controlled $4^{th}$ instars in the field.

검거세미나방(Agrotis ipsilon)은 다양한 작물에 피해를 주며 특히 골프장 잔디에 심각한 피해를 주는 해충이다. 식물정유는 해충방제를 위한 대체방제제의 하나이다. 본 연구는 16종의 식물정유(anise, camphor, cinnamon, citronella, clove, fennel, geranium, lavender, lemongrass, linseed, neem, peppermint, pine, thyme, turpentine and tea saponin)와 파라핀오일의 검거세미나방에 대한 방제효과를 실내와 온실, 야외에서 검정하였다. 온실의 퍼레니얼라이그라스 pot에 각각의 정유를 처리한 결과 anis, cinnamon, neem, paraffin, turpentine 처리에서 잔디피해가 적었으며 neem oil (4,000, 2,000, 1,000 ppm) 처리시 검거세미나방 치사율은 각각 100, 100, 64%였다. 2,000 ppm neem oil처리 퍼레니얼라이그라스 잎을 섭식한 검거세미나방 유충의 체중은 무처리에 비해 5배정도 낮았다. 2~3령충 검거세미나방에 대하여 pot와 야외에서 고농도 neem oil 처리 후 관수가(20,000 ppm 0.1 L 처리 후 물 0.9 L $m^2$ 살포) 저농도의 다량살포 (2,000 ppm 1 L $m^2$)에 비하여 효과가 높았으나 4령충에 대해서는 효과가 없었다.
