Use of anthranilic acid diamide derivatives for pest control in transgenic crops
View Patent ↗The present invention relates to the use of anthranilic acid diamide derivatives with heteroaromatic and heterocyclic substituents of formula (I) wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , R 4 , R 5 , R 6 , n, A, Q have the meanings as given in the description—for controlling animal pests, such as insects and/or unwanted acarids and/or nematodes in transgenic crops and to methods particularly useful for controlling insects, and/or acarids and/or nematodes and/or increasing crop yield in those crops.
1. A method for controlling insects, and/or acarids and/or nematodes comprising applying a mixture of compounds
wherein the compounds may also be present as an N-oxide and/or salt thereof, on one or more transgenic crops.
2. A method for controlling insects and/or acarids and/or nematodes according to claim 1 , comprising applying a composition comprising
A) the mixture of compounds and
B) one or more additional agrochemically active compounds.
3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compounds are at a rate of 5 g to 5 kg per ha.
4. The method for controlling insects, and/or acarids and/or nematodes according to claim 1 , comprising applying the compounds on seeds of one or more transgenic crops.
5. The method of for controlling insects, and/or acarids and/or nematodes according to claim 1 , comprising applying the compounds to one or more of transgenic corn, soybean, cotton, rice, oilseed rape, sugar cane, sugar beet, potatoes, vegetables, tomatoes, curcurbits, tobacco, coffee, and fruits.
6. The method according to claim 1 , which increases yield.
7. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the crop is transgenic corn.
8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the crop is transgenic soybean.
9. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the crop is transgenic rice.
