Description
METHODS OF CONTROLLING OR PREVENTING INFESTATION OF PEANUT PLANTS BY PHYTOPATHOGENIC MfCROORGANISMS
Technical Field
The présent invention relates to methods for controlling or preventing infestation of peanut plants by the phytopathogenic microorganism Ceroospora.
Background
Cercospora is a fungal pathogen in peanut that attacks any above-ground part of the plant, but leaf spots are the most conspicuous symptom. Depending upon weather conditions and cropping history, leaf symptoms usually appear between 30 to 50 days after planting. Yield loss occurs from the shedding or défoliation of diseased leaflets. Défoliation reduces healthy leaf area and weakens the stems and pegs causing pods to fall off the vine during digging and harvest. Yield losses of 50 percent or more are possible when leaf spot is not controlled and nearly complété défoliation occurs. Thus, there is a need for providing improved methods to control or prevent infestation of peanut plants by the phytopathogenic microorganism Cercospora.
The current invention provides further methods for controlling or preventing infestation of peanut plants by the phytopathogenic microorganism Cercospora, in partîcular Cercospora arachidicola.
Description of the embodiments
Cyclobutylcarboxamide compounds and processes fortheir préparation hâve been disclosed in WO2013/143811 and WO2015/003Ô51. It has now been surprisingly found that partîcular cyclobutylcarboxamide compounds disclosed in WO2013/143811 and/or WO2015/003951 are highly effective at controlling or preventing the infestation of peanut plants by the phytopathogenic microorganism Cercospora. These highly effective compounds thus represent an important new solution for farmers to control or prevent infestation of peanut plants by the fungal pathogen Cercospora.
Hence, as embodiment 1, there is provided a method of controlling or preventing infestation of peanut plants by the phytopathogenic microorganism Cercospora comprising applying to a crop of plants, the locus thereof, or propagation material thereof, a compound according to formula (I)

Preferred seed treatment pre-mix formulations are aqueous suspension concentrâtes. The formulation can be applied to the seeds using conventional treating techniques and machines, such as fluidized bed techniques, the roller mill method, rotostatic seed treaters, and daim coaters. Other methods, such as spouted beds may also be useful. The seeds may be presized before coating. After coating, the seeds are typîcally dried and then transferred to a sizing machine for sizing. Such procedures are known in the art. The compounds of the present invention are particularly suited for use in soil and seed treatment applications.

Biological examples
Effect of different fungicide treatments against Cercospora sp.
A peanut field trial was carried out in Telflair, Georgia, USA, to evaîuate the efficacy of different compounds against the leafspot disease Cercospora arachidicola. Plot borders (peanuts) were planted in early May and left untreated until there was significant leafspot infection on the borders. The peanuts were then planted in July and treatments applied in-furraw at the same day. The disease occurred mid of September and an assessment on disease severity (% infected area) was done 63 days after planting.
