In this context, plants are understood as meaning all plants and plant populations, such as desired and undesired wild plants or crop plants (including naturally occurring crop plants). Crop plants can be plants which can be obtained by conventional breeding and optimization methods or by biotechnological and genetic engineering methods or combinations of these methods, including the transgenic plants and including the plant varieties which can or can not be protected by plant breeders' rights. Plant parts are to be understood as meaning all aboveground and underground parts and organs of the plants, such as shoot, leaf, flower and root, examples being leaves, needles, stems, stems, flowers,

Fruits, fruits and seeds and roots, tubers and rhizomes are listed. The plant parts also include crops and vegetative and generative propagation material, such as cuttings, tubers, rhizomes, offshoots and seeds.

The treatment according to the invention of the plants and plant parts with the active substance combinations takes place directly or by acting on their environment, habitat or storage space according to the usual treatment methods, e.g. by dipping, spraying, evaporating, atomizing, spreading, brushing, injecting and in propagation material, in particular in seeds, further by single or multi-layer wrapping.

As already mentioned above, according to the invention all plants and their parts can be treated. In a preferred embodiment, wild-type or plant species obtained by conventional biological breeding methods, such as crossing or protoplast fusion, and plant cultivars and their parts are treated. In a further preferred embodiment, transgenic plants and plant cultivars obtained by genetic engineering, if appropriate in combination with conventional methods (Genetically Modified Organisms), and parts thereof are treated. The term "parts" or "parts of plants" or "plant parts" is explained above.

It is particularly preferred according to the invention to treat plants of the respective commercially available or in use plant cultivars. Plant varieties are understood as meaning plants having new traits which have been bred by conventional breeding, by mutagenesis or by recombinant DNA techniques. These can be varieties, biotypes and genotypes.

Depending on plant species or plant varieties, their location and growth conditions

(Soils, climate, vegetation period, nutrition) can by the inventive

Treatment also over-additive ("synergistic") effects occur. Thus, for example, reduced application rates and / or extensions of the activity spectrum and / or a _ _

Enhancement of the effect of the substances and agents which can be used according to the invention, better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to dryness or to water or soil salinity, increased flowering efficiency, easier emptying, acceleration of ripeness, higher crop yields, higher quality and / or higher nutritional value of the harvested products, higher shelf life and / or workability of the harvested products possible, which go beyond the actual expected effects.

The preferred plants or plant varieties to be treated according to the invention to be treated include all plants which, as a result of the genetic engineering modification, obtained genetic material which gives these plants particularly advantageous valuable properties ("traits"). Examples of such properties are better plant growth, increased tolerance to high or low temperatures, increased tolerance to dryness or to bottoms salt, increased flowering, easier harvesting, acceleration of ripeness, higher crop yields, higher quality and / or higher nutritional value of the harvested products , higher

Shelf life and / or workability of the harvested products. Further and particularly emphasized examples of such properties are an increased defense of the plants against animal and microbial pests, as against insects, mites, phytopathogenic fungi, bacteria and / or viruses as well as an increased tolerance of the plants against certain herbicidal active substances. Examples of transgenic plants include the important crops such as cereals (wheat, rice), corn, soybean, potato, cotton, tobacco, oilseed rape and fruit plants (with the fruits apples, pears, citrus fruits and grapes), with corn, soybean, potato , Cotton, tobacco and oilseed rape. Traits that are particularly emphasized are the increased defense of the plants against insects, arachnids, nematodes and snails by toxins produced in the plants, in particular those which are produced by the genetic material from Bacillus thuringiensis (eg by the genes CryΙA (a) , CryΙA (b), CryΙA (c), CrylLA, CryHIA, Cry ]HB2, Cry9c Cry2Ab, Cry3Bb and CrylF and combinations thereof) in the plants (hereinafter "Bt plants"). As properties ("traits") are also particularly emphasized the increased defense of

Plant against fungi, bacteria and viruses by systemic acquired resistance (SAR), systemin, phytoalexins, elicitors and resistance genes and correspondingly expressed proteins and toxins. As traits, the increased tolerance of the plants to certain herbicidal active compounds, for example imidazolinones, sulfonylureas, glyphosates or

Phosphinotricin (eg "PAT" gene). The genes conferring the desired properties ("traits") can also be used in combinations with one another in the transgenic plants _ _

occurrence. Examples of "Bt plants" are maize varieties, cotton varieties, soybean varieties and potato varieties which are sold under the trade names YIELD GARD® (eg corn, cotton, soya), KnockOut® (eg maize), StarLink® (eg maize), Bollgard® ( Cotton), Nucotn® (cotton) and NewLeaf® (potato). Examples of herbicide-tolerant plants are maize varieties, cotton varieties and soybean varieties, which are sold under the trade names Roundup Ready® (tolerance to glyphosate eg corn, cotton, soy), Liberty Link® (tolerance to phosphinotricin, eg rapeseed), Evtl® (tolerance to Imidazolinone) and STS® (tolerance to sulfonylureas eg corn). Herbicide-resistant (conventionally grown herbicide-tolerant) plants also include the varieties sold under the name Clearfield® (e.g., corn). Of course, these statements also apply to future or future marketed plant varieties with these or future developed genetic traits.

The active ingredient combinations can be converted into the customary formulations, such as solutions, emulsions, wettable powders, suspensions, powders, dusts, pastes, soluble

Powders, granules, suspension-emulsion concentrates, active substance-impregnated natural and synthetic substances as well as finest encapsulation in polymeric substances.

These formulations are prepared in a known manner, e.g. by mixing the active compound with extenders, ie liquid solvents and / or solid carriers, optionally with the use of surface-active agents, ie emulsifiers and / or dispersants and / or foam-forming agents.

As extender, e.g. Water, polar and non-polar organic chemical liquids e.g. from the classes of aromatic and non-aromatic hydrocarbons (such as paraffins, alkylbenzenes, alkylnaphthalenes, chlorobenzenes), alcohols and polyols (which may also be substituted, etherified and / or esterified), ketones (such as acetone, cyclohexanone), esters ( also fats and oils) and (poly) ethers, the simple and substituted amines, amides, lactams (such as N-alkylpyrrolidones) and lactones, the sulfones and sulfoxides (such as dimethyl sulfoxide).

In the case of using water as extender, for example, organic solvents can also be used as auxiliary solvents. Suitable liquid solvents are essentially: aromatics, such as xylene, toluene, or alkylnaphthalenes, chlorinated aromatics and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chlorobenzenes, chloroethylenes or methylene chloride, aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as cyclohexane or paraffins, for example petroleum fractions, mineral and vegetable oils, alcohols such as butanol or glycol and their ethers and esters, ketones such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, Methyl isobutyl ketone or cyclohexanone, strong polar solvents such as dimethylformamide and dimethyl sulfoxide, and water.

Suitable solid carriers are:

e.g. Ammonium salts and ground natural minerals, such as kaolins, clays, talc, chalk, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite or diatomaceous earth, and ground synthetic minerals, such as fumed silica, alumina and silicates, as solid carriers for granules are suitable: e.g. crushed and fractionated natural rocks such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite, dolomite and synthetic granules of inorganic and organic flours and granules of organic material such as sawdust, coconut shells, corn cobs and tobacco stalks; suitable emulsifiers and / or foam formers are: e.g. nonionic and anionic emulsifiers, such as polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers, e.g. Alkylaryl polyglycol ethers, alkylsulfonates, alkyl sulfates, arylsulfonates and protein hydrolysates; suitable dispersants are: e.g. Lignin-sulphite liquors and methylcellulose.

Adhesives such as carboxymethyl cellulose, natural and synthetic powdery, granular or latex polymers, such as gum arabic, polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl acetate, and natural phospholipids such as cephalins and lecithins and synthetic phospholipids may be used in the formulations. Other additives may be mineral and vegetable oils.

Dyes such as inorganic pigments, e.g. Iron oxide, titanium oxide, ferrocyan blue and organic dyes such as alizarin, azo and metal phthalocyanine dyes and trace nutrients such as salts of iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum and zinc.

The formulations generally contain between 0.1 and 95% by weight of active compound, preferably between 0.5 and 90%, and additionally preferably extenders and / or surface-active agents.

The active substance content of the application forms prepared from the commercial formulations can vary within wide ranges. The active ingredient concentration of the use forms may be from 0.0000001 to 95% by weight of active ingredient, preferably between 0.0001 and 1% by weight.

The application is done in a custom forms adapted to the application forms. _

The plants listed can be treated particularly advantageously erfϊndungsgemäß with the active compound combinations according to the invention. The preferred ranges given above for the mixtures also apply to the treatment of these plants. Particularly emphasized is the plant treatment with the mixtures specifically mentioned in the present text.

The good insecticidal activity of the active substance combinations is evident from the examples below. While the individual active ingredients have weaknesses in effect, the combinations show an effect that goes beyond a simple action summation. A synergistic effect is always present in insecticides when the effect of the

Drug combinations is greater than the sum of the effects of the individually applied drugs.

The expected effect for a given combination of two drugs can be found in S.R. Colby, Weeds, (1967), 20-22) are calculated as follows:

If

X is the degree of killing, expressed in% of the untreated control, when the active substance A is used at a rate of mg / ha or in a concentration of m ppm, Y is the degree of killing, expressed in% of the untreated control, when using the active compound B in one Application rate of ng / ha or in a concentration of n ppm and E means the degree of killing, expressed in% of the untreated control, when using the active compounds A and B in application rates of m and ng / ha or in one

Concentration of m and n ppm means then

XYE = X + Y- - _| oo

If the actual insecticidal kill rate is greater than calculated, the combination is over-additive in its kill, ie, there is a synergistic effect. In this case, the actually observed kill rate must be greater than the expected kill rate (E) value calculated from the above formula. _ _

The expected effect for a given combination of two drugs may also be calculated (see Yun-Pei Sun and ER Johnson, "Analysis of Joint Action of Insecticides against House Flies", J. Econ., Entomol., 58, 1960, 887ff) as follows become:

If

LC ₅₀ (b _z w 95) A indicates the concentration at which 50% (or 95%) of the animals treated with the active substance A die off, and

LC ₅₀ (b _z w 95 ₎ b indicates the concentration at which 50% (or 95%) of the animals treated with the active substance B die,

The current Tox index a mixture LC _S od _it We _kstoffes A = _{X 100}

LC 50 of the mixture

The theoretical tox index of a mixture

= Tox index of drug A x% of A in the mixture + Tox index of drug B x% of B in the mixture

then the co-toxicity coefficient is CTC of a mixture

Current Tox-Index of the mixture = x 100 Theoretical Tox-Index of the mixture

If the calculated co-toxicity coefficient is higher than 100, then there is a synergistic effect.
