Method for protecting useful plants or plant propagation material
View Patent ↗A method of controlling phytopathogenic diseases on useful plants or plant propagation material thereof, which comprises applying to said plant or plant propagation material a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I) wherein all the substituent save indicated as in claim 1.
1. A method for controlling infestation of plants or plant propagation material and/or harvested food crops susceptible to microbial attack by treating plants or plant propagation material and/or harvested food crops with an effective amount of an oxaborole of formula (Ic):
wherein R 7 is chlorine, X is CH 2 and R is H, C 1-4 alkyl optionally substituted by —NR 3 R 4 wherein R 3 and R 4 are each independently, hydrogen, optionally substituted C 1-4 -alkyl.
2. A method of controlling phytopathogenic diseases on plants or plant propagation material thereof according to claim 1 , which comprises applying to said plant propagation material a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (Ic).
3. A method according to claim 1 , wherein plant propagation material of useful plants are seeds of useful plants.
4. A method of controlling phytopathogenic diseases on plants or plant propagation material thereof, which comprises applying to said plant propagation material a fungicidally effective amount of a plant propagation material protecting composition comprising a compound of formula (Ic) as defined in claim 1 , together with a suitable carrier.
5. A plant propagation material comprising a compound of formula (Ic) as defined in claim 1 .
6. A plant propagation material according to claim 5 , which comprises additionally a colouring agent.
7. A method of protecting plant propagation material and organs that grow at a later point in time against damage of phytopathogenic diseases, which method comprises applying to said propagation material a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (Ic) as defined in claim 1 .
8. A coated plant propagation material wherein the coating comprises a compound of formula (Ic) as defined in claim 1 .
9. A coated plant propagation material according to claim 8 , wherein the said plant propagation material is a seed.
10. A product comprising a plant propagation material and a composition comprising a compound of formula (Ic) as defined in claim 1 .
11. The product according to claim 10 , wherein the said plant propagation material is a seed.
12. The product according to claim 10 , further comprising a plant growth and/or seed germination medium.
