摘要:
Novel active compound combinations comprising a carboxamide of the general formula (I) (group 1) in which A, R1 and R2 are as defined in the description, and the active compound groups (2) to (24) listed in the description have very good fungicidal properties.
摘要:
The Smart Reamer® Tool, Apparatus or Method is used to underream an oil or natural gas well while interlinked calipers and calibration sensors simultaneously record data relating to the geometry of the drilling operation (well diameter, diameter of the underreamed zone) and drilling fluid properties (density). Further sensors provide data on the relative position of the cutting and stabilizing blocks. Other sensors measure vibration data. All the sensors are interlinked by means of microprocessors which compare and correlate said data to automatically verify and deliver a desired wellbore diameter without the need to unnecessarily stop drilling or trip out of the hole.

摘要:
A synergistic herbicidal composition containing (a) a compound of formula (I): or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof and (b) VLCFA and fatty acid/lipid synthesis inhibiting herbicides, including but not limited to, acetochlor, alachlor, anilofos, benfuresate, cafenstrole, dimethenamid-P, fentrazamide, indanofan, flufenacet, mefenacet, s-metolachlor, molinate, pethoxamid, pretilachlor, prosulfocarb, pyroxasulfone, thenylchlor and thiobencarb, or a salt or ester thereof, provide synergistic weed control of undesirable vegetation in direct-seeded, water-seeded and transplanted rice, cereals, wheat, barley, oats, rye, sorghum, corn or maize, sugarcane, sunflower, oilseed rape, canola, sugar beet, soybean, cotton, pineapple, pastures, grasslands, rangelands, fallowland, turf, tree and vine orchards, aquatics, plantation crops, vegetables, industrial vegetation management (IVM) or rights-of-way (ROW).
摘要:
Methods for improving the ability of a population of biological agents to compete and survive in a field setting are provided. The improved, modified population of agents is able to grow, compete with other microbial strains and fungi, and provide protection for plants from pathogens. Modified biological agents and modified populations of such agents that are herbicide tolerant or resistant are selected or engineered. In this manner, the protection from disease-causing agents is enhanced. Such modified populations can be added to soils to prevent fungal pathogens and the associated diseases thereby promoting plant growth. The present invention is useful for enhancing the competitiveness of modified biological agents particularly over other microbial agents which are not herbicide resistant. Disclosed compositions include selected or engineered herbicide resistant biological agents and modified populations of biocontrol agents. These modified biological agents can be used as an inoculant or seed coating for plants and seeds.
摘要:
There is a need for a selective, low-risk herbicide that can be used to control weeds in cereal cultures and turf. The present invention discloses that a bacterial secondary metabolite, thaxtomin and optionally another herbicide is an effective herbicide on broadleaved, sedge and grass weeds. Thaxtomin A and structurally similar compounds can be used as natural herbicides to control the germination and growth of weeds in cereal, turf grass, Timothy grass and pasture grass cultures with no phytotoxicity to these crops. As a natural, non-toxic compound, thaxtomin can be used as a safe alternative for weed control in both conventional and organic farming and gardening systems.
摘要:

摘要:
Ether-amide compounds having the formula RaRbC(OR1)—CHRc—CONR2R3 are described. Also described, are processes for the preparation and use thereof, especially as solvents, for example in phytosanitary formulations.
摘要:
Disclosed are a paddy rice seed treated by a herbicidal composition and a method for controlling weed which comprises sowing the above-mentioned paddy rice seed on a surface of a soil of a paddy field.
摘要:
Disclosed are hypersensitive-response eliciting peptides that exhibit improved solubility, stability, resistance to chemical degradation, or a combination of these properties. Use of these peptides or fusion polypeptides, or DNA constructs encoding the same, for modulating plant biochemical signaling, imparting disease resistance to plants, enhancing plant growth, imparting tolerance to biotic stress, imparting tolerance and resistance to abiotic stress, imparting desiccation resistance to cuttings removed from ornamental plants, imparting post-harvest disease or post-harvest desiccation resistance to a fruit or vegetable, or enhancing the longevity of fruit or vegetable ripeness are also disclosed.
