This studies were carried out to selected high pathogenic nuclear polyhedrosis viruses(NPVs) against Pseudaletia(=Leucania) separata for the introduction of microbiol control of the insect NPV in Korea. Among 21 NPVs, Sesamia inferens and 4 P. separata NPV strains were highly pathogenic against P. separata when fed orchard grass leaves smeared virus suspension on the 2nd instar larvae. Three NPV strains (LsNPV-F, LsNPV-G, LsNPV-Y) were more susceptible to the younger instar than the older instar P. separata larvae when fed artificial diet mixed with the virus to the insect.
