【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、芝地、牧草地、農地、果樹園、庭園などにおいて植物害虫となっているコガネムシ科昆虫に対して、その防除には化学合成された農薬を用いることが一般的であった。しかし、環境問題が重要視される時代背景下、自然環境や人体への悪影響が懸念される化学農薬に代わって、環境保全に貢献することのできる安全性の高い生物的防除法が切望されている。
【0003】
上記のような観点から、昆虫に対して殺虫性を有する微生物を用いた微生物農薬が開発されており、例えば、鱗翅目や蚊の幼虫に対して病原性を有するバチルス・チューリンゲンシス(Bacillus thuringiensis)の生菌又はその殺虫成分を農薬とするいわゆるBT剤は代表的なものとして知られている。
【0004】
コガネムシ科昆虫についても、乳化病に冒されたマメコガネ(Popillia japonica)幼虫から単離されたバチルス・ポピリエに属する微生物が、マメコガネ幼虫に対して乳化病を誘発することが知られており、既に、米国においては該微生物を用いた微生物製剤が市販されている。しかしながら、該微生物は日本で重要害虫となっているドウガネブイブイ(Anomala cuprea)に対しては効果がない(農業有用微生物−その利用と展望− 梅谷献二、加藤肇 236頁 1990年)ため、我が国においてコガネムシ科幼虫防除剤として使用するには満足できるものではなかった。
【0005】
ドウガネブイブイに対して殺虫性を有するバチルス属細菌としては、バチルス・チューリンゲンシスに属する微生物(バチルス・チューリンゲンシス・バー・ジャポネンシスN141株、特開平8−228783号公報)が知られているが、バチルス・ポピリエに属する微生物では知られていない。
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】

[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.
[0011]
<1> Microorganism of the Present Invention The microorganism of the present invention is a microorganism belonging to Bacillus popilie, characterized by its insecticidal activity against cedar and pupae. Specific examples of the microorganism include a Bacillus popilie cemadara strain. The Bacillus popilie cemadara strain is a strain isolated from the larvae of the scallop larvae affected by the emulsification disease in Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture, as shown in the Examples below. From May 21, 1998, Bacillus popilie cemadara strain has been entrusted to the Institute of Biotechnology, Institute of Industrial Science and Technology, Ministry of International Trade and Industry (Postal Code 305 1-3, Higashi 1-chome, Tsukuba City, Ibaraki, Japan). It is deposited with a deposit number of -16818. Later, the deposit was transferred to an international deposit based on the Budapest Treaty. The accession number of BP-8068 was given.
[0012]
Table 1 shows the bacteriological properties of the Bacillus popilie sedara strain of the present invention. From this bacteriological property, in particular, the ability to grow under temperature conditions up to 40 ° C., and the pathogenicity of inducing emulsifying disease against the scallop, it was confirmed that this strain belongs to Bacillus popilie. Further, when the pathogenic spectrum of this strain was examined, it was found that it has an insecticidal effect against moth larvae, and it was found to be a novel microorganism different from any conventionally known Bacillus popilie. Therefore, this strain was named the Bacillus popilie cemadara strain.
[0013]
<2> Method of controlling Scarabaeidae insects and microbial preparations of the present invention By causing the microorganism of the present invention to act on Scarabaeidae insects, Scarabaeidae insects can be controlled. The action of the microorganism of the present invention on a scarab beetle insect is carried out by incorporating the cells or spores, preferably spores, of the microorganism of the present invention into the body of a scarab beetle insect, preferably a larva.
[0014]
Although the method of the present invention can be widely applied to insects belonging to the family Scarabaeidae, it can be suitably applied particularly to the stag beetle and the stag beetle.
The microorganisms of the present invention may be incorporated into the insects of the scarab beetle, and the spores formed by the microorganisms of the present invention may be used, but spores are preferred. For example, the spore can be prepared as follows. The microorganism of the present invention is incorporated into a larvae of the family Scarabaeidae, preferably a larvae of the stag beetle or pupae. Specifically, the microorganisms of the present invention are sprayed on a rearing medium or the like where the larvae are present and ingested orally or injected into a body fluid. The larvae are preferably raised for 3 to 4 weeks, and the microorganisms of the present invention are propagated in the larvae. The spore increased in the larvae can be obtained, for example, by collecting the body fluid by incising or making a hole in the larvae and centrifuging or filtering the obtained body fluid.
[0015]
In the method of the present invention, the spore may be used as it is, or if necessary, water or a neutral buffer such as PBS buffer (NaCl 8 g, KCl 0.2 g, Na 2 HPO 4 1.44 g, KH 2 PO 4 0.24 g / 1 L, pH 7.4), phosphate buffer, or Tris-HCl buffer, preferably PBS buffer. Furthermore, the spore may be dried to a powder, or may be a suspension of water or the above buffer solution. In addition, the spore can be used as a microbial preparation by mixing the spore with components such as a carrier and a nutrient that are usually used in a microbial preparation such as a microbial pesticide. Furthermore, by mixing a Bacillus thuringiensis microbial cell or an insecticidal component thereof with this composition, it may be used in combination with the microorganism of the present invention, and these synergistic effects are expected against the scarab beetle larvae.
[0016]
The microorganism, spore or microbial preparation of the present invention has a spore count of 1 × 10 6 to 1 × 10 14 per 1 m 2 of soil, such as turf, orchard, farmland, etc. to control Scarabaeidae larvae, preferably 1 Sprinkling is performed so that × 10 9 to 1 × 10 13 . Thereafter, if necessary, 1 to 2 L of water per 1 m 2 may be sprinkled and / or the soil may be mixed and mixed. When a suspension is used, it is 1 × 10 6 cells / L to 1 × 10 14 cells / L, preferably 1 × 10 9 cells / L to 1 × 10 13 cells / L with water or the neutral buffer. It is preferable to use a suspended material.
[0017]
【Example】
Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to examples.
[0018]
[Example 1]
Isolation and identification of Bacillus popilie sedara strains In the summer of 1997, a large larvae of the scallop larvae emerged at the Chiba Prefectural Agricultural Experiment Station in Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture. Among the larvae populations that became dense, many were found to have milky white color, and most of them died within 2 weeks. A pathogenic strain was isolated from the larvae of the scallop larvae affected by this emulsification disease by the following method. That is, a hole was made in the larvae that became milky white and died with an injection needle, and milky white body fluid was collected from the blood body cavity.
[0019]
The precipitate fraction was collected from the body fluid by centrifugation. By microscopic observation, it was estimated that this fraction contained bacterial spores. After heat-treating this fraction at 60 ° C. for 15 minutes, MYPGP plate (Mueller-Hinton broth 10 g, yeast extract 10 g, K 2 HPO 4 3 g, C 3 H 3 O 3 Na 1 g, glucose 0.5 g And agar 20 g / 1 L) and cultured at 30 ° C. in an anaerobic state for 7 days. A pure strain was isolated by repeating the operation of isolating colonies formed on the medium and culturing again in the same manner as described above.
The results of examining the bacteriological properties of the strains isolated as described above are shown in Table 1.
[0020]
[Table 1]
Figure 0003898343
[0021]
From the bacteriological properties shown in Table 1, it was confirmed that this strain belongs to Bacillus popilie. According to the bacteriological properties of Bacillus popilie described in the Bargeys Manual of Determinative Bacteriology, the morphological properties are length: 1.3-5. It is the same as Table 1 except that it is a koji mold having a width of 2 μm and a width of 0.5 to 0.8 μm and the growth temperature is 20 to 35 ° C. Incidentally, the Barjays Manual of Detergent Bacteriology does not describe the growth in the presence of 3% NaCl.
On the other hand, as shown in Example 3 and Example 4, the strain had a pathogenicity of inducing emulsifying diseases against Scarabaeidae larvae such as the stag beetle and Douganebububu. This strain is a novel microorganism different from any conventionally known Bacillus popilie in that it also has an insecticidal effect against the moth larvae, and was named Bacillus popilie cemadara strain.
[0022]
[Example 2]
Manufacture of the spore fraction of Bacillus popilie cemadara strain 20g of breeding soil mixed with humus and sand in a ratio of 3: 1 was put into a 6cm diameter plastic cup, and spores collected from larvae infected with emulsifying disease were collected. About 1 × 10 3 were sprayed. The third instar larvae were placed in a cup and raised at 25 ° C. When the larva body became milky white, the body surface was sterilized with 1% sodium hypochlorite solution, a hole was made with an injection needle, and the body fluid was collected. Spores were collected from the body fluid by centrifugation at 10,000 rpm for 5 minutes. Spores were washed twice with PBS buffer and adjusted to 1 × 10 9 cells / ml to obtain a spore fraction.
[0023]
When preparing spores from the deposited strain, about 100 vegetative cells are injected by injection into the larva body fluid, and raised at 30 ° C. for 2 to 4 weeks. A bodily fluid may be collected by making a hole.
[0024]
[Example 3]
20 g each of 20-cm plastic cups having a diameter of 3: 1 mixed with an insecticidal active humus and sand mixed with microbial larvae of the microorganism of the present invention in a ratio of 3: 1 so that the number of spores becomes 1 × 10 7. The spore fraction obtained in Example 2 was sprayed. Similarly, 20 cups having 1 × 10 7 spores were prepared. Each cup was filled with one third instar larvae and one small piece of sweet potato, and the number of dead individuals was examined while rearing at 25 ° C. for 40 days. In addition, the body fluid was examined under a microscope to determine whether spores were formed in the dead larvae.
[0025]
The results are shown in Table 2. In the group where 1 × 10 7 spores / cup were sprayed, 40% of larval deaths were confirmed after the 30th day. In the area where 1 × 10 8 pieces / cup was sprayed, individuals that became milky white were observed from the 14th day after spraying, 100% of the larvae died 30 days after spraying, and 60% formed spores in the body. It was.

Insecticidal activity against the moth larvae of the microorganism of the present invention The second larvae of the moth moth were used in the same manner as in Example 3. However, a mixture of humus and volcanic ash soil at a ratio of 1: 1 was used as rearing culture soil.
[0028]
The results are shown in Table 3. In the group sprayed with 1 × 10 7 spores / cup, 15% of the larvae were confirmed after the 30th day. In the area sprayed with 1 × 10 8 / cup, milky white individuals were observed from the 18th day after spraying, 95% of the larvae died 40 days after spraying, and 55% formed spores in the body. It was.

Mitigation of turf damage by controlling larvae larvae: Pots with an area of approximately 500 cm 2 were prepared, and 10 larvae of 2 larvae were buried in the soil. The spores obtained in Example 2 were sprayed on the pot so as to be 1.25 × 10 10 cells / m 2 or 1.25 × 10 11 cells / m 2 . In addition, a section where no spores were sprayed was also provided as a control. The degree of turf damage in each ward was observed over 30 days. The test was carried out in quadruplicate in each ward, and the degree of damage is shown in Table 4 as an average value.
