Binary insecticidal or pesticidal mixture
The present invention relates to novel mixtures, to processes for preparing these mixtures, to compositions comprising these mixtures, and to the use thereof as biologically active compounds, especially for control of harmful microorganisms or pests in crop protection and in the protection of materials and as plant growth regulators.
1. A composition, comprising
(1) compound of formula (I-5)
and (2) at least one biological control agent comprising
botanical extract of Chenopodium ambrosioides
Metarhizium anisopliae,
Paecilomyces fumosoroseus,
Beauveria bassiana,
Bacillus thuringiensis , or
Paecilomyces lilacinus,
wherein the compound (I-5) and the biological control agent are present in amounts to provide synergistic results.
2. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the biological control agent comprises Metarhizium anisopliae.
3. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the biological control agent comprises botanical extract of Chenopodium ambrosioides.
4. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the biological control agent comprises Paecilomyces fumosoroseus.
5. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the biological control agent comprises Beauveria bassiana.
6. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the biological control agent comprises Bacillus thuringiensis.
7. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the biological control agent comprises Paecilomyces lilacinus.
8. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of compound (I-5) to the botanical extract of Chenopodium ambrosioides is 1:1 to 1:2000.
9. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of compound (I-5) to the botanical extract of Chenopodium ambrosioides is 1:1 to 1:1500.
10. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the weight ratio of compound (I-5) to the botanical extract of Chenopodium ambrosioides is 1:30 to 1:1500.
11. A composition according to claim 1 , wherein the compound (I-5) and the biological control agent are the only actives present in the composition and are present in amounts to provide synergistic results.
12. The composition according to claim 1 , wherein the ratio of the at least one biological control agent to compound (I-5) is 10 7 to 10 14 viable spores or conidia per gram of compound (I-5).
