Abstract

The present invention relates to active compound combinations for reducing the damage of plants and plant parts as well as losses in harvested fruits or vegetables caused by insects, nematodes or phytopathogens and which have fungicidal or nematicidal or insecticidal activity including any combination of the three activities, in particular within a composition, which comprises (A) Fluopyram, (B) a spore-forming bacterium of the genera Bacillus, selected from Bacillus firmus, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus pumilis, Bacillus amyloliquefaciens, Bacillus subtilis strain GB03, Bacillus subtilis strain QST713, and (C) at least one biological control agent, in particular bacteria, fungi or yeasts, protozoa, viruses, entomopathogenic nematodes, inoculants, botanicals and products produced by microorganisms including proteins or secondary metabolites. Moreover, the invention relates to a method for curatively or preventively controlling insects, nematodes or phytopathogens on the plant, plant parts, harvested fruits or vegetables, to the use of a combination according to the invention for the treatment of seed, to a method for protecting a seed and not at least to the treated seed.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An active compound combination comprising:
(A) Fluopyram,
(B) a spore-forming bacterium of the genera Bacillus, selected from the group consisting of Bacillus firmus , and
(C) at least one biological control agent selected from the group consisting of (C2.14) Paecilomyces lilacinus ,
wherein the only active components in the combination are actives (A), (B), and (C).

2. The active compound combination according to claim 1 , wherein the combination has fungicidal and nematicidal and optionally insecticidal activity.

3. A composition comprising the active compound combination according to claim 1 and further comprising at least one of an auxiliary, solvent, carrier, surfactant and/or extender.

4. The active compound combination according to claim 1 , wherein (B) is (B1) Bacillus firmus strain CNCM I-1582.

5. The active compound combination according to claim 1 , wherein (C) is spores of P. lilacinus strain 251(AGAL 89/030550).

6. The active compound combination according to claim 5 , wherein (B) is (B1) Bacillus firmus strain CNCM I-1582.

7. Seed treated with the active compound combination according to claim 1 .

8. A method for controlling insects, nematodes or phytopathogens comprising applying an active compound combination according to claim 1 to seed, a plant, to fruit of a plant and/or to soil on which a plant grows and/or is supposed to grow.

9. The method according to claim 8 , wherein the plant, the fruit of the plant and/or the soil on which the plant grows and/or is intended to grow is treated.

10. The method according to claim 8 , wherein, in treatment of leaves of the plant, from 0.01 to 10 000 g/ha is employed and in the treatment of seed, from 2 to 200 g per 100 kg of seed is employed.

11. A method for treating seed, seed of a transgenic plant, and/or a transgenic plant comprising applying the active compound combination according to claim 1 to the seed, the seed of the transgenic plant and/or the transgenic plant.

12. A method of treating a plant comprising applying the active compound combination according to claim 1 to a plant or part of a plant for improvement of plant properties comprising one or more of better growth or increased harvest yields or a better developed root system or a larger leaf area or greener leaves or stronger shoots.
