Abstract

The present invention relates to a composition, comprising a microorganism of species Penicillium bilaji and at least one compound (II) in a synergistically effective amount.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A fungicidal composition, comprising as active components
1) a microorganism (I) of species Penicillium bilaji;
and
2) one compound (II) selected from the group consisting of:
A) a strobilurin selected from the group consisting of
azoxystrobin, fluoxastrobin, pyraclostrobin, and trifloxystrobin;

B) a carboxamide selected from the group consisting of
a carboxanilides selected from the group consisting of bixafen, boscalid, fluxapyroxad, isopyrazam, metalaxyl, metalaxyl-M (mefenoxam), penflufen, penthiopyrad, and sedaxane;

C) an azole selected from the group consisting of
cyproconazole, difenoconazole, diniconazole, epoxiconazole, fluquinconazole, ipconazole, metconazole, prothioconazole, tebuconazole triticonazole, imazalil and prochloraz; and

D) a heterocyclic compound selected from the group consisting of
a pyrimidine selected from the group consisting of bupirimate, cyprodinil, diflumetorim, fenarimol, ferimzone, mepanipyrim, nitrapyrin, nuarimol, and pyrimethanil;
a pyrrole selected from the group consisting of fenpiclonil and fludioxonil;

wherein the microorganism (I) and the one compound (II) are in a synergistically effective amount.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of pyraclostrobin, trifloxystrobin, azoxystrobin and fluoxastrobin.

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of boscalid, isopyrazam, metalaxyl, metalaxyl-M, penflufen, penthiopyrad, sedaxane, bixafen and fluxapyroxad.

4. The composition of claim 3 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of penflufen, sedaxane, bixafen and fluxapyroxad.

5. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of cyproconazole, difenoconazole, diniconazole, epoxiconazole, fluquinconazole, metconazole, ipconazole, imazalil, tebuconazole, triticonazole,-prothioconazole, and prochloraz.

6. The composition of claim 5 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of tebuconazole, prothioconazole, triticonazole and prochloraz.

7. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of fludioxonil, cyprodinil, and pyrimethanil.

8. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the microorganism (I) and the one compound (II) are present in a weight ratio of from 100:1 to 1:100.

9. The composition of claim 1 , further comprising a solvent or solid carrier.

10. A method for controlling phytopathogenic harmful fungi, comprising treating the fungi, their habitat or the seed, the soil or the plants to be protected against fungal attack with an effective amount of the composition of claim 1 .

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of pyraclostrobin, trifloxystrobin, azoxystrobin and fluoxastrobin.

12. The method of claim 10 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of boscalid, isopyrazam, metalaxyl, metalaxyl-M, penflufen, penthiopyrad, sedaxane, bixafen and fluxapyroxad.

13. The method of claim 12 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of penflufen, sedaxane, bixafen and fluxapyroxad.

14. A method for protection of plant propagation material from plant-pathogenic fungi comprising contacting the plant propagation materials with the composition of claim 1 in an effective amount.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of pyraclostrobin, trifloxystrobin, azoxystrobin and fluoxastrobin.

16. The method of claim 14 , wherein the one compound (II) is selected from the group consisting of boscalid, isopyrazam, metalaxyl, metalaxyl-M, penflufen, dimethomoprh, fluopyram, penthiopyrad, sedaxane, bixafen and fluxapyroxad.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the microorganism (I) and the one compound (II) are applied simultaneously, that is jointly or separately, or in succession.
