This study was conducted to determine the effects of temperature and food onthe nymphal development and adult longevity of the green virid bug, Cyrtorhinus lividipennis Router. Nymphal period was 13.2 to 13.7 days at 24$^{\circ}C$, 10.4 to 10.9 days at 28$^{\circ}C$, and 9.0 to 9.3 days at 32$^{\circ}C$. Number of eggs predated by nymph was 10.6-14.3 at 24$^{\circ}C$, 7.5-9.2 at 28$^{\circ}C$, and 5.8-7.5 at 32$^{\circ}C$. Amount of predation was highest on BPH, followed by SBPH, WBPH, and GLH. Number of nympal moulting was mostly four times (55-75%) followed by three times (25-45%), regardless of temperature and food. Percent emergence rate was 52-70%, 48-66% and 22-38% at 24$^{\circ}C$, 28$^{\circ}C$ and 32$^{\circ}C$, respectively, showing a tendency to decrease with increasing temperature, and was affected by foods. Adult longevity, when supplied with one food, was 19.8 to 22.5 days at 24$^{\circ}C$, 15.6 to 17.0 days at 28$^{\circ}C$, and 10.3 to 11.7 days at 32$^{\circ}C$. There was no significant difference among foods in terms of adult longevity, but it tended to be slightly longer when provided with four foods than with one food. Number of eggs predated by an adult, when supplied with one food, was 35.7-54.2, 31.6-44.6 and 18.1-28.2 at 24$^{\circ}C$, 28$^{\circ}C$ and 32$^{\circ}C$, respectively. It was highest on BPH, followed by SBPH, WBPH and GLH regardless of temperature. Number of egg Predated by an adult, when supplied with four foods, was 4.0-28.9, 2.9-29.0 and 17-13.6 at 24$^{\circ}C$, 28$^{\circ}C$ and 32$^{\circ}C$, respectively, and was significantly different among foods supplied. The results suggest that the significantly different predation amount by adult was due to food preference amoung the different foods.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of temperatures, 24"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and 32"C,and food sources on pupal development, adult longevity and oviposition of tobacco cutworm, Spodopteralitura Fabricius. Percent pupation of S. litura was became higher at higher temperature from 23% to 88%.And its percent pupation was highest on soybean leaf (SL), followed by perilla leaf (PL), sweet potato leaf(SPL) and artificial diet (AD). Pupal weight ranged from 0.28g on SPL to 0.40 g on PL and was tended toheavier with decreasing temperature. The mean pupal duration was 14, 10 and 7 days at 24"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and32"C, respectively. Percent emergence was in range of 21% to 89% with higher percent emergence as thetemperature increased and both 28$^{\circ}$C and 24$^{\circ}$C was highest on SL, followed by PL, SPL and AD, but at24$^{\circ}$C the order was SPL, PL, SL and then AD. Preoviposition duration was 3.2 days at 24"C, 2.8 days at28$^{\circ}$C and 2.5 days at 32$^{\circ}$C. Adult longevity became shorter as the temperature increased from 6.4 to 3.9days. Male longevity was longer than that of female. Adults lived longest when they were reared on PL,followed by SL, SPL and AD. Total number of eggs laid per female varied from 803 to 1,441 regardlessof the treatments, but those were significantly more on natural foods than on AD. Number of eggs per eggmass was 97.4 at 24$^{\circ}$C 155.8 at 28$^{\circ}$C and 104.7 at 32$^{\circ}$C. Number of egg mass was 12.0, 6.7 and 11.3 at24"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and 32"C, respectively.4"C, 28$^{\circ}$C and 32"C, respectively.

The effect of temperature ($24\~36^{\circ}C$ and salinities ($5\~30$ ppt) on hatching rate of the resting egg of the Korean rotifer, Brachionus plicatilis was investigated. The highest hatching rate of the resting egg was $85.7\%$ at $28^{\circ}C$ and 15 ppt. The hatching rates of the resting eggs with salinities were not significant at $326{\circ}C$ and $36^{\circ}C$. Hatching was faster at higher temperature. The resting eggs stored at $5^{\circ}C$ in dark hatched simultaneously within two days, however, those at $28^{\circ}C$ in dark hatched intermittently within 14 days. But, final hatching rate of the resting egg at $28^{\circ}C$ was higher at $28^{\circ}C$ than that at $5^{\circ}C$. With regard to drying temperature and time of resting egg, the resting egg dried at $30^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour showed the highest hatching rate ($46.4\%$).

This experiment was conducted to investigate pathogenicity of Spodoptera litura nucleopolyhedrovirus (SINPV) with different temperatures to mass production. In laboratory, LC$_{50}$ values of SINPV were 5.534$\times$10$^3$ PIBs/ml and 4.l0$\times$10$^2$PIBs/ml in 1st instar larvae at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 28$^{\circ}C$, respectively, but those were increased at 32$^{\circ}C$. LC$_{50}$ at 3rd and 5th instar larvae were showed the lowest value at 28$^{\circ}C$. LT$_{50}$ values of SINPV in 1.0$\times$10$^{5.7}$ PIBs/ml were determined at various temperature conditions (20-32$^{\circ}C$). The result showed that treatments at 28$^{\circ}C$ and 32$^{\circ}C$ shortened LT$_{50}$ values, but treatments at 2$0^{\circ}C$ and 24$^{\circ}C$ was relatively longer. Also LT$_{50}$ values was shortened in high concentration and young larva. LT$_{50}$ values are dependent on the temperature, viral concentration and larval instar.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of temperatures on the egg and nymphal development, adult longevity and oviposition of bean bug, Riptortus clavatus Thunberg, using Saealkong seed as food sources in fibrous nylon-tube at four different temperatures (20, 24, 28 and $32^{\circ}C$). Hatchability showed the highest value of 100% at $28^{\circ}C$ and decreased with increasing temperature. Egg duration ranged from 7 days at $32^{\circ}$ to 16.7 days at $20^{\circ}C$. Instar duration was longer with increasing instar stage. Nymphal duration was 38 days at $20^{\circ}C$, 30 days at $24^{\circ}C$, 23 days at $28^{\circ}C$, and 18 days at $32^{\circ}C$ Emergence rates to adult were 16, 41, 72 and 68% at 20, 24, 28 and $32^{\circ}C$, respectively. Female adult longelity ranged from a minimum 20 days at $20^{\circ}C$ to a maximum 63 days at $28^{\circ}C$, while the longevity of male ranged from 19 days at $20^{\circ}C$ to 60 days at $28^{\circ}C$. Preoviposition duration was shorter with increasing temperature and ranged from 11 days at $20^{\circ}C$ to 5 days at $32^{\circ}C$. Total number of eggs laid per female ranged from a minimum 21 eggs at $20^{\circ}C$ to a maximum 67 eggs at $28^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the estimated lower threshold tempeatures of each developmental stage were $10.3^{\circ}C$ for egg, and 9.3, 12.7, 10.0, 11.0 and 8.7 for the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th instar, respectively.

This study was carried out to develop new techniques useful for cryopreservation, thawing and artificial insemination, and ultrastructural changes of cryopreserved spermatozoa in rainbow trout(Oncorhynchus mykiss) . Two extenders, such as Tyrode solution and Whittingham's $T_6$ solution, were used to preserve rainbow trout sperm in refrigerator $(-20,\;-40\;and\;-70^{\circ}C)$ or liquid nitrogen $%(-196^{\circ})$. Hand-stripped semen was diluted to 1:16 with two extenders, an then the semen were frozen after mixing semen and each extender containing 1M or 1.5M DMSO solution to 1:1. After 60 days cryopreserved semen was thawed in a $13^{\circ}$ water bath, and subsequently centrifugated. After centrifugation at 1,000 rpm for 5 min thawed semen was washed with extenders, and then fertilized with fresh eggs. The results obtained in these experiments were summarized as follows: After cryopreservation, over 75% of spermatozoa were appeared motile and the survival rate was high. Following cryopreservation by the addition of cryoprotectant such as DMSO, methanol and glycerol, the fertilization rate of the thawed spermatozoa appeared over $99\%$ compared with the control having $99\%$ of fertilization rate. There was no difference between the control and experimental groups such as $(-20^{\circ}C\;-40^{\circ}C\;and\;-70^{\circ}C)$ and $-196^{\circ}$ in fertilization rate. Following cryopreservation at $-196^{\circ}$ by the addition of 1M DMSO of cryoprotectant, each fertilization rate following 24 hours and hatching rate following 24 days showed $96\%$ and $8\%$ by the addition of BSA, but showed $98\%\;and\;10%$ by no addition of BSA. Following 2 months of cryopreservation by the addition of 1M DMSO of cryoprotectant, there were $10%$ of hatching rate at $-196^{\circ}\;and\;10\%\;and\;35\%,\;respectively,\;at\;-40^{\circ}C\;and\;-70^{\circ}C$. Following 2 months of cryopreservation by the addition of 1M methanol of cryoprotectant, there were $22\%$ of fertilization rate at $-20^{\circ}C,\;and\;28\%,\;at\;-70^{\circ}C$ Following 2 months of cryopreservation by the addition of 1M glycerol of cryoprotectant, there were $22\%$ of fertilization rate at $-20^{\circ}C$, and $33\%,\;at\;-70^{\circ}C$. pollowing 2 months of cryopreservation by the addition of 1.5M DMSO of cryoprotectant, there were $27\%$ of fertilization rate at $-20^{\circ}C,\;an\;36\%\;and \;35\%,\;respectively,\;at\;-40^{\circ}C\;and\;-70^{\circ}C$. Following 2 months of cryopreservation by the addition of 1.5M glycerol of cryoprotectant, there were $34\% \;of\;fertilization\;rate\;at\;-20^{\circ}C, \;and\;31\%\;and\;31\%,\;respectively,\;at \;-40^{\circ}C\;and\;-70^{\circ}$. Following 2 months of cryopreservation by the addition of 1.5M methanol of cryoprotectant, there were $28\%$ of fertilization rate at $-20^{\circ}C,\;and\;29\%\;and\;28\%,\;respectively,\;at\;-40^{\circ}C\;and\;-70^{\circ}C.$ From 10 days and 15 days following fertilization at $13^{\circ}C\;and\;10^{\circ}C$, respectively, the mortality rate of fertilized ova was markedly increased. The middle piece of spermatozoa had two set of central doublets, nine set of outer coarse fibres, and mitochondrial sheath. Spermatozoa went through morphological changes during storage, e.g. winding of flagella, detachment of the nuclear envelope and the plasma membrane from the nucleus of the sperm head. There were $1\%$ abnormal spermatozoa in fresh sperm and about $15\%$ during storage.

We investigated to know the growth patterns of Aedes albopictus larva at the four different temperature conditions. Each of 120 individuals was placed into a $20m{\ell}$ vial and 12 sets (a set of 10 vials) were separated into 12 water tanks ($17{\times}24{\times}18cm^3$). Each water tank was composed of 3 the $1^{st}$ instar, 3 the $2^{nd}$ instar, 2 the $3^{rd}$ instar, and 2 the $4^{th}$ instar. Three sets of water tanks were placed under the four different incubator temperatures ($17^{\circ}C$, $21^{\circ}C$, $24^{\circ}C$, $28^{\circ}C$). We found that the eclosion rates were $20.00{\pm}5.77%$ at $21^{\circ}C$ and $3.33{\pm}3.33%$ at other temperatures. For the mosquito larva mortality rate, $1^{st}$ instar was $19.24{\pm}3.65%$, $2^{nd}$ instar was $16.48{\pm}3.25%$, $3^{rd}$ instar was $23.54{\pm}5.06%$, and $4^{th}$ instar was $40.74{\pm}7.08%$. The lowest mortality rate in growth stages according to temperature was $13.33{\pm}6.67%$ at $17^{\circ}C$ in $1^{st}$ instar larva, $7.41{\pm}7.41%$ at $21^{\circ}C$ at $2^{nd}$ instar larva, $10.74{\pm}6.43%$ at $24^{\circ}C$ in $3^{rd}$ instar larva, and $20.37{\pm}5.46%$ at $28^{\circ}C$ in $4^{th}$ instar larva. The survival period of mosquitoes in underwater were $26.33{\pm}0.67days$ at $17^{\circ}C$, $23.33{\pm}1.33days$ at $21^{\circ}C$, $20.00{\pm}2.52days$ at $24^{\circ}C$, and $11.67{\pm}1.20days$ at $28^{\circ}C$. From our results the most effective temperature to the normal growth of mosquito larva was $21^{\circ}C$, and the highest mortality rate was shown at the $4^{th}$ instar stage of larva growth. Our results would provide the basic data for the mosquito larva's growth pattern.

Naphthalene is a volatile, hydrophobic, and possibly carcinogenic compound that is known to have a severe detrimental effect to aquatic ecosystem. Our research examined the effects of various operating conditions (temperature, pH, initial concentration, and frequency and type of ultrasound) on the sonochemical degradation of naphthalene and OH radical production. The MDL (Method detection limit) determined by LC/FLD (1200 series, Agilient) using C-18 reversed column is measured up to 0.01 ppm. Naphthalene vapor produced from ultrasound irradiation was detected under 0.05 ppm. Comparison of naphthalene sonodegradion efficiency tested under open and closed reactor cover fell within less than 1% of difference. Increasing the reaction temperature from $15^{\circ}C$ to $40^{\circ}C$ resulted in reduction of naphthalene degradation efficiency ($15^{\circ}C$: 95% ${\rightarrow}$ $40^{\circ}C$: 85%), and altering pH from 12 to 3 increased the effect (pH 12: 84% ${\rightarrow}$pH 3: 95.6%). Pseudo first-order constants ($k_1$) of sonodegradation of naphthalene decreased as initial concentration of naphthalene increased (2.5 ppm: $27.3{\times}10^{-3}\;min^{-3}\;{\rightarrow}$ 10 ppm : $19.3{\times}10^{-3}\;min^{-3}$). Degradation efficiency of 2.5 ppm of naphthalene subjected to 28 kHz of ultrasonic irradiation was found to be 1.46 times as much as when exposed under 132 kHz (132 kHz: 56%, 28 kHz: 82.7%). Additionally, its $k_1$ constant was increased by 2.3 times (132 kHz: $2.4{\times}10^{-3}\;min^{-1}$, 28 kHz: $5.0{\times}10^{-3}\;min^{-1}$). $H_2O_2$ concentration measured 10 minutes after the exposure to 132 kHz of ultrasound, when compared with the measurement under frequency of 28 kHz, was 7.2 times as much. The concentration measured after 90 minutes, however, showed the difference of only 10%. (concentration of $H_2O_2$ under 28 kHz being 1.1 times greater than that under 132 kHz.) The $H_2O_2$ concentration resulting from 2.5 ppm naphthalene after 90 minutes of sonication at 24 kHz and 132 kHz were lower by 0.05 and 0.1 ppm, respectively, than the concentration measured from the irradiated M.Q. water (no naphthalene added.) Degradation efficiency of horn type (24 kHz) and bath type (28 kHz) ultrasound was found to be 87% and 82.7%, respectively, and $k_1$ was calculated into $22.8{\times}10^{-3}\;min^{-1}$ and $18.7{\times}10^{-3}\;min^{-1}$ respectively. Using the multi- frequency and mixed type of ultrasound system (28 kHz bath type + 24 kHz horn type) simultaneously resulted in combined efficiency of 88.1%, while $H_2O_2$ concentration increased 3.5 times (28 kHz + 24 kHz: 2.37 ppm, 24 kHz: 0.7 ppm.) Therefore, the multi-frequency and mixed type of ultrasound system procedure might be most effectively used for removing the substances that are easily oxidized by the OH radical.
