Plant disease control agent comprising D-tagatose as active ingredient, and plant disease control method
View Patent ↗A plant disease control agent comprising at least one member selected from the group consisting of saccharides and substances each having a bactericidal and/or fungicidal activity. The plant disease control agents are effective for the control of cucumber, grape and cabbage downy mildew, damping-off in seedlings caused by Pythium spp, cucumber and barley powdery mildew, wheat stem rust, potato and tomato late blight, and others.
1. A method of controlling plant disease comprising applying a plant disease controlling agent comprising D-tagatose and one or more of the members selected from the group consisting of monosaccharide, azoxystrobin, tebuconazole, triflumizole, fluopicolide, zoxamide, mandipropamid, metalaxyl, amisulbrom, propamocarb-hydrochloride, cyprodinil, dimethomorph, validamycin, kasugamycin, chlorothalonil, fthalide, fosetyl-Al, quinoxyfen, cymoxanil, tricyclazole, ferimzone, and fenamidone as an active ingredient to plants or seeds or mixing the plant disease controlling agent in soil of cultivation beds, wherein said disease is downy mildew, late blight, brown rust or rice blast.
2. The method of controlling plant diseases according to claim 1 , wherein the plant disease controlling agent is applied to seeds or mixed in soil of cultivation beds.
3. The method of controlling plant diseases according to claim 1 , wherein the monosaccharaide is one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of D-fructose, D-psicose, D-sorbose and D-mannose.
4. A method of controlling plant disease comprising applying a plant disease control agent comprising D-tagatose and one or more of the members selected from the group consisting of monosaccharide, fungicide, moldicide and antibiotics as an active ingredient to plants, wherein said disease is downy mildew, late blight, brown rust or rice blast.
