Disclosed herein is a bacterial secondary metabolite, thaxtomin and another herbicide as an effective herbicide combination on broadleaved, sedge and grass weeds.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A synergistic herbicidal composition for controlling sprangletop weeds comprising 0.1 to 0.4 mg/ml thaxtomin A and about 0.97 to about 1.45 mg/ml cyhalofop, wherein the synergistic herbicidal composition has an increased herbicidal activity against sprangletop weeds. 2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises an adjuvant, a non-ionic surfactant and/or an organic solvent. 3. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein said composition further comprises a non-ionic surfactant and/or an aliphatic alcohol. 4. A method for modulating the emergence, growth or both emergence and growth of sprangletop weed comprising the steps of: applying the synergistic herbicidal composition of claim 1 to at least a portion of a plant, effective to modulate the emergence, growth or both emergence and growth of said weed. 5. The method according to claim 4 , wherein the weed comprises Leptochloa uninervia. 6. The method according to claim 4 , wherein said weeds are modulated in a cereal growth system. 7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the cereal growth system is a rice growth system.
