Abstract

Use of a tetramic acid compound according to formula (I) or (I′) with a second nematicide as a treatment for crop plants to combat and control nematodes in the soil of said crop plants.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A method for reducing nematode damage to a plant comprising:
i) applying a first composition with nematicidal properties to a seed prior to planting and/or to the soil surrounding a planted seed or plant;
ii) and applying a second composition comprising a systemic nematicidal compound to an aerial plant part of said previously treated plant or plant produced from said previously treated seed;

wherein the systemic nematicidal compound is selected from a compound according to the following formula:

wherein
G is hydrogen or a latentiating group; and
A is hydrogen, C 1-6 alkyl, C 1-6 haloalkyl, or C 1-6 alkoxy;

or an agrochemically acceptable salt or an N-oxide thereof.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein a first composition with nematicidal properties is applied to a seed and to the soil surrounding a planted seed or plant, wherein the first composition applied to the seed is the same as or different from the first composition applied to the soil surrounding a planted seed or plant.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first composition comprises a chemical nematicide.

4. The method of claim 3 , wherein the chemical nematicide is selected from the group consisting of 1,2-dibromo-3-chloropropane, 1,2-dichloropropane, 1,2-dichloropropane with 1,3-dichloropropene, 1,3-dichloropropene, 3,4-dichlorotetrahydrothiophene 1,1-dioxide, 3-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-methylrhodanine, 5-methyl-6-thioxo-1,3,5-thiadiazinan-3-ylacetic acid, 6-isopentenylaminopurine, abamectin, acetoprole, alanycarb, aldicarb, aldoxycarb, benclothiaz, benomyl, butylpyridaben, cadusafos, carbofuran, carbon disulfide, carbosulfan, chloropicrin, chlorpyrifos, cloethocarb, cytokinins, dazomet, DBCP, DCIP, diamidafos, dichlofenthion, dicliphos, dimethoate, doramectin, emamectin, emamectin benzoate, eprinomectin, ethoprophos, ethylene dibromide, fenamiphos, fenpyrad, fensulfothion, fluensulfone, fosthiazate, fosthietan, furfural, GY-81, heterophos, imicyafos, imicyafos, iodomethane, isamidofos, isazofos, ivermectin, kinetin, mecarphon, metam, metam-potassium, metam-sodium, methyl bromide, methyl isothiocyanate, milbemycin oxime, moxidectin, Myrothecium verrucaria composition, oxamyl, oxamyl carbamate, phorate, phosphamidon, phosphocarb, sebufos, selamectin, spinosad, terbam, terbufos, tetrachlorothiophene, thiafenox, thionazin, triazophos, triazuron, xylenols, YI-5302 and zeatin.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the chemical nematicide is selected from abamectin, fosthiazate or oxamyl carbamate.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the chemical nematicide is selected from abamectin which is applied to the seed and/or to the soil surrounding the planted seed or plant.

7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first composition comprises a biological nematicide.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the biological nematicide is selected from the group consisting of Myrothecium verrucaria, Burholderia cepacia, Bacillus chitonosporus, Paecilomyces lilacinus, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus firmus, Bacillus subtillis, Bacillus pumulis , and Pasteuria spp., preferably Pasteuria nishizawae strain Pn1 and Pasteuria usgae.

9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the first composition, or the second composition, or both the first composition and the second composition, further comprises at least one insecticide or fungicide.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the latentiating group is selected from —C(═O)—R a or —C(═O)—O—R b ; wherein R a is selected from hydrogen, C 1 -C 12 alkyl, C 2 -C 12 alkenyl, C 2 -C 12 alkynyl, C 1 -C 10 haloalkyl and R b is selected from C 1 -C 12 alkyl, C 2 -C 12 alkenyl, C 2 -C 12 alkynyl and C 1 -C 10 haloalkyl.

11. The method according to claim 10 , wherein A is hydrogen.

12. The method according to claim 11 , wherein G is

or H.

13. The method according to claim 10 , wherein A is methyl.

14. The method according to claim 13 , wherein G is

or H.

15. The method according to claim 10 , wherein G is

or H.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein A is hydrogen or methyl.
