Abstract

The present invention provides a composition in which a fungicidal effect against a cultivated crop infected by a plant pathogen is stable and highly active. An excellent agricultural or horticultural fungicide composition for controlling a plant pathogen is provided by using (a) at least one imidazole compound represented by formula (I): wherein R represents a C1-6 alkyl group or a C1-6 alkoxy group; and n represents an integer of 1 to 5 and (b) folpet as active ingredients; by combination as compared to a single use of each compound, and a plant pathogen is thereby controlled.

Description

DESCRIPTION
AGRICULTURAL OR HORTICULTURAL FUNGICIDE COMPOSITION AND ITS USE FOR CONTROLLING PLANT PATHOGENS
Technical Field
The present invention relates to an agricultural or horticultural fungicide composition wherein a control effect against a plant pathogen, especially a preventive and/or therapeutic effect against a plant pathogen, is markedly improved; and a method for controlling a plant pathogen using thereof.
Background Art
Patent Literature 1 discloses that an imidazole compound, one of the active ingredients in the agricultural or horticultural fungicide composition of the present
invention is useful for a harmful bio-organism controlling agent. In addition, it also
discloses that if necessary, the composition can be mixed with or used in combination with other fungicides, and as one example of them, N-
(trichloromethylsulphenyl)phthalimide is described. However, Patent Literature 1
does not disclose any specific data using the imidazole compound mixed with the above compound.
Furthermore, Patent Literature 2 discloses folpet as an agricultural or
horticultural fungicide.

Technical Problem
Since an imidazole compound represented by the following formua (I) is slightly insufficient in a control effect against some of specific plant pathogens or is
relatively short in residual efficacy, it does not practically exhibit a sufficient control
effect against a plant pathogen in some conditions for application.
Solution to Problem As a result of investigations to solve the above-described problem, the present inventors have found that use of an imidazole compound represented by the following formula (I) in combination with folpet exhibits unpredictable and excellent control effect against a plant pathogen as compared to a single use of each compound, and have completed the present invention.
The present invention relates to an agricultural or horticultural fungicide composition comprising
(a) at least one imidazole compound represented by formula (I):
Figure imgf000003_0001
SO2N(CH3)2 (I) wherein R represents a C 1-6 alkyl group or a C 1-6 alkoxy group; and n represents an integer of 1 to 5,
and (b) folpet as active ingredients. And the present invention relates to a method for controlling a plant pathogen, comprising applying the above mentioned composition to a plant or soil. In addition, the present invention relates to a method for controlling a plant pathogen, comprising applying an effective amount of (a) at least one imidazole compound represented by formula (I) and an effective amount of (b) folpet to a plant or soil.
In formula (I), the C 1-6 alkyl group or the alkyl moiety of the C 1-6 alkoxy group as represented by R includes an alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl or hexyl, which may have either a straight chain or a branched chain. When n is 2 or greater, the plural Rs may be the same or different.
