SYNERGISTIC FUNGICIDAL COMPOSITIONS
Field of the Invention
[0001] การเปิดเผยนี้ concerns a synergistic fungicidal composition containing a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of
Formula I and at least one triazole.
Background and Summary
(I)
[0002] Fungicides are compounds, of natural or synthetic origin, which act to
protect plants against damage caused by fungi. Current methods of agriculture rely heavily on the use of fungicides. In fact, some crops cannot be grown usefully without the use of fungicides. The use of fungicides allows a grower to increase the yield and the quality of the crop and consequently, increase the value of the crop. In most situations, the increase in value of the crop is worth at least three times the cost of the use of the fungicide.
[0003] However, no one fungicide is useful in all situations and repeated usage of a single fungicide frequently leads to the development of resistance to that and related fungicides. Consequently, research is being conducted to produce fungicides and

combinations of fungicides that are safer, that have better performance, that require lower dosages, that are easier to use, and that cost less. Combinations are also being studied that produce synergism, i.e., the activity of two, or more, compounds exceeds the activities of the compounds when used alone.
[0004] It is an object of การเปิดเผยนี้ to provide ++องค์ประกอบแบบเสริมฤทธิ์กัน++เสเส
comprising fungicidal compounds. It is a further object of การเปิดเผยนี้ to provide
processes that use these เสเส. The เสเส are
capable of preventing or curing, or both, diseases caused by fungi within the classes
Ascomycetes and Basidiomycetes. In addition, the เสเส have improved efficacy against the Ascomycotes and Basidiomycotes pathogens, including wheat leaf
blotch (caused by Mycosphaerella graminicola; anamorph: Septoria tritici; Bayer code SEPTTR); and wheat brown rust, caused by Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici, synonym
Puccinia triticina; Bayer code PUCCRT). In accordance with การเปิดเผยนี้, เสเส are provided along with methods for their use.
