2010년부터 2011년까지 2년 동안 경상남도농업기술원 단감연구소 포장에서 단감 흰가루병(P. kakicola)을 방제하기 위하여 난황유를 3회 지상부에 살포한 다음 5일 후 병해 방제효과를 검정하였다. 난황유 처리구에서 병반 면적율을 조사한 결과 13.4%였으며, 단감 흰가루병에 대한 방제효율은 80.5%이었다. 무처리구에서 68.6% 발생하였다. 난황유를 처리한 후 주사전자현미경으로 관찰한 흰가루병의 균사는 형태적으로 세포가 원형질막이 파괴되어 세포내용물이 소실되어 쭈그러졌다. 이것은 난황유가 흰가루병의 세포벽이나 세포막을 파괴하여 생긴 것으로 사료된다.
Cooking oil and yolk mixture (COY) was applied to control the powdery mildew of sweet persimmon at the research field of Gyeongsangnam-do Agricultural Research and Extension Services from 2010 to 2011. COY was sprayed three times with 10 days interval on foliar parts of sweet persimmon and the disease development was monitored after 5 days of final spray. Diseased leaf area rate was 13.4% and the control efficacy of COY against powdery mildew was 80.5%. Disease rate was 68.6% on negative control. Using scanning electron microscope (SEM), the morphological changes of the powdery mildew fungus on the leaf surface were observed. On COY-treated leaves, fungal mycellia were morphologically characterized by a loss in cell volume, shriveling, plasma membrane rupture, and subsequent loss of intracellular contents. It may due to the destruction of fungal cell wall or membrane structure.
