¹⁰ BACKGROUND ART

Benzoylpyridine derivatives which are analogous to the compounds of the present invention may be compounds as disclosed in e.g. WO99/41237, WO99/38845, WO96/17829, JP-A-7-309837 and JP-A-2-275858. However, they are different from the compounds of the present invention. Further, the purposes of use of these compounds are different from those of the compounds of the present invention.

Many fungicides which have been conventionally provided have their own characteristics in their controlling effects over pests which cause plant diseases. Some have a slightly poorer curative effect as compared with a preventive effect, and some have a residual effect which lasts only for a relatively short period of time, so that their controlling effects against pests tend to be practically insufficient in some cases. Accordingly, it has been desired to develop a novel compound which has a strong controlling effect against pests which cause plant diseases.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION

The present inventors have conducted extensive 5 studies to overcome the above problems and as a result, have found that use of the compound represented by the formula (I) as an active ingredient presents excellent preventive effect and curative effect against various plant diseases, particularly powdery mildew of barley, vegetables, fruits and flowering plants, and the present invention has been accomplished.
