Abstract:
The present invention refers to a method for controlling undesired vegetation at a plant cultivation site, the method comprising the steps of providing, at said site, a plant that comprises at least one nucleic acid comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding a wild-type or a mutated protoporphyrinogen oxidase (PPO) which is resistant or tolerant to a benzoxazinone-derivative herbicide by applying to said site an effective amount of said herbicide. The invention further refers to plants comprising wild-type or mutated PPO enzymes, and methods of obtaining such plants.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a herbicidal composition comprising pethoxamid. The invention also relates to methods and uses for controlling undesirable vegetation, in particular in crops.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a herbicidal composition comprising at least one chloroacetamide selected from acetochlor and pretilachlor. The invention also relates to methods and uses for controlling undesirable vegetation, in particular in crops.
Abstract:
In a method and apparatus (710) for treating soil at a work site, a high pressure application tool (712) is connected to a base unit (714) and moved relative thereto along a first area of the work site adjacent a structure (94) and operated to inject soil treatment down into the soil along the first area of the work site. A low pressure application tool (711) is interchanged with the high pressure application tool (712) and moved relative to the base unit along a second area of the work site adjacent the structure (94) and different from the first area of the work site. The low pressure application tool (711) is operated to apply soil treatment to the soil along the second area of the work site.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a herbicidal combination which comprises: a) a herbicide A which is 2-chloro-5-[3,6-dihydro-3-methyl-2,6-dioxo-4-(trifluoromethyl)-1-(2H)-pyrimidinyl]-4-fluoro-N-[[methyl-(1-methylethyl)-amino]sulfonyl]benzamide, b) a single herbicide B selected from sulfentrazone, flumioxazin, dicamba and their salts and esters, and c) at least one herbicide C different from herbicides A and B which is selected from C.1) herbicides of the group of acetolactate synthase inhibitors, C.2) herbicides of the group of protoporphyrinogen oxidase inhibitors, C.3) herbicides of the group of synthetic auxins, C.4) herbicides of the group of microtubule inhibitors, C.5) herbicides of the group of acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibitors, C.6) herbicides of the group of photosystem II inhibitors, C.7) herbicides of the group of pigment synthesis inhibitors, and C.8) herbicides of the group of VLCFA inhibitors selected from chloroacetamide herbicides, oxyacetamide herbicides, acetamide herbicides and tetrazolinone herbicides; provided that the herbicidal combination does not include pyroxasulfone; provided that in case the components b) or c) comprise dicamba or one of its salts or esters the herbicidal combination does not include imazapyr or one of its salts; and provided that if component b) is flumioxazin and component c) is 2,4-D, 2,4-D is present as its 2-ethylhexyl ester.
Abstract:
A wireless controller area network (CAN) bus bridge includes a CAN subsystem, a wireless communication module, and a controller coupled to the CAN subsystem and the wireless communication module. The CAN subsystem is configured to be communicatively coupled to a CAN bus to receive a CAN message from the CAN bus. The wireless communication module is operable to wirelessly communicate according to two different versions of a wireless communication protocol. The CAN subsystem is configured to provide the received CAN message to the controller. The controller is programmed to generate a binary message including the received CAN message and to provide the generated binary message to the wireless communication module for transmission from the wireless CAN bus bridge using at least one of the two different versions of the wireless communication protocol.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of oxirane compounds of formula II from keto compounds III using dimethyl sulfide (CH3)2S and dimethylsulfate (CH3)2SO4, forming the reagent IV, trimethylsulfonium methylsulfate [(CH3)3S+CH3SO4−], in aqueous solution in the presence of potassium hydroxide (KOH).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to compositions comprising a triazole compound as component I and as a component II a compound selected from (II-1) to (II-8) and to the agrochemical compositions and the uses thereof.
