As regards fungicide activity, in particular for the protection of crops, one of the problems at the heart of the research studies carried out in this technical field is the improvement of performances, in particular in terms of fungicide activity and in particular in terms of maintaining this fungicide activity over time. The fungicide composition useful for the protection of plants against fungi must be endowed with an ecotoxicity which is reduced to the minimum. As far as possible, they should not be dangerous or toxic to the operator during use. The economic factor should of course not be overlooked in the search for novel fungicide compositions.
The fungicide composition according to the invention includes a N2-phenylamidine derivative as described in international patent application WO-00/46184. These compounds are comprised within the family defined in this international patent application which covers several thousands of compounds including more than 700 compounds explicitly described. As indicated on page 10, lines 16 to 27, of this document, the N2-phenylamidine derivatives of formula (I) may be incorporated into plant-protection compositions with agriculturally acceptable carriers or diluents and optionally one or more active ingredients, such as for example fungicide compounds. This reference to the use of fungicide compounds with the N2-phenylamidine compounds of formula (I) has an extremely general scope. The fungicide active compounds which may be combined with the compounds of formula (I) are absolutely not described in the form of isolated compounds or in terms of a chemical family. In particular, no high-performing combination in terms of perennial fungicide activity is disclosed in this international patent application. International patent application WO-03/024219 discloses some mixtures of N2-phenylamidine compounds with some other fungicide compounds. However none of the partner compounds according to the present invention are disclosed in the said international patent application and only very few of the mixtures disclosed in this publication have led to some experimental tests. With respect to compounds (B) used in the fungicide composition according to the invention, there are compounds known to the skilled person as possessing an individual fungicide efficacy. Accordingly, the present invention provides a fungicide composition comprising: A) an arylamidine derivative of formula (I):

The fungicide composition according to the invention can be used for the control of fungi infesting cereals, grapevine, vegetables, lucerne, soyabean, market garden crops, turf, wood and horticultural plants, among others.
The present invention advantageously provides a fungicide composition which can be used for controlling three major fungal diseases of cereals, namely: powdery mildew, brown rust and Septoria diseases. The present invention provides a fungicide composition based on N2-phenylamidine derivatives which is more active against fungi which are harmful to plants, and which is in particular active over longer periods than the fungicide agents known up until now.
The present invention provides a fungicide composition which is high-performing in particular as regards its efficacy against fungi and the perenniality of this efficacy so as to be able to reduce the doses of chemical products spread in the environment for combating fungal attacks of plants. The present invention provides a fungicide composition which is more active and active for longer, and which therefore has a lower dose, but which is also less toxic, in particular in the preventive and curative treatment of fungal diseases, for example, of cereals, Solanaceae, grapevine, vegetables, lucerne, soyabean, market garden crops, turf, wood or horticultural plants, advantageously on cereals.
The fungicide composition according to the invention may advantageously allow an improvement in the yield of the crops which is significant from an agronomic point of view.

The fungicide composition according to the invention makes it possible to significantly improve the persistence of antifungal activity in the context of the curative or preventive treatment of major diseases of cereals such as powdery mildew, brown rust and Septoria diseases. This composition may allow eradicant properties which are superior to those of the compounds used alone.
From the point of view of weight, it should be specified that in accordance with the invention, the weight ratio (A/B) is defined as follows 0.001 < A/B < 500; preferably 0.01 < A/B < 500; still more preferably 0.01 < A/B < 10.
In the case where compound (B) is fluoxastrobin or prothioconazole (or one of their equivalents), it has been found that the weight ratio (A/B) is advantageously 0.05 < A/B < 5. The compound (A)/compound (B) ratio is defined as being the ratio by weight of these 2 compounds. In the fungicide composition according to the invention, the compound (A)/compound (B) ratio may be advantageously chosen so as to produce a synergistic effect. The term synergistic effect is understood to mean in particular that defined by Colby in an article entitled "Calculation of the synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations" Weeds, (1967), 15, pages 20-22. The latter article mentions the formula:
XY E=X + Y- 100
wherein E represents the expected percentage of inhibition of the disease for the fungicide composition comprising two fungicide compounds at defined doses (for example equal to x and y respectively), X is the percentage of inhibition observed for the disease with compound (A) at a defined dose (equal to x), Y is the percentage of inhibition observed for the disease with compound (B) at a defined dose (equal to y). When the percentage of inhibition observed for the combination is greater than E, there is a synergistic effect. The term "synergistic effect" may also mean the effect defined by application of the Tammes method, "Isoboles, a graphic representation of synergism in pesticides", Netherlands Journal of Plant Pathology, 70(1964), pages 73-80.
The compound (A)/compound (B) ratio ranges indicated above do not in any way limit the scope of the invention, but are, rather, mentioned as a guide, a person skilled in the art being entirely capable of carrying out additional tests to find other values of the ratio of doses of these two compounds, for which a synergistic effect is observed.
The fungicide composition according to the invention may comprise from 0.00001 to 100%, preferably from 0.001 to 80%, of active compounds, whether these compounds are combined, or whether they are in the form of two active ingredients used separately. The fungicide composition according to the invention based on a compound (A) and a compound (B) may also comprise one or more other active ingredients chosen from fungicide, herbicide, insecticide or plant growth regulator compounds.
In addition to these additional active agents, the fungicide composition according to the invention may also include any other excipient or auxiliary agent useful in plant protection formulations such as, for example, an agriculturally suitable inert carrier and optionally an agriculturally suitable surfactant.
The form of the fungicide composition according to the invention can be selected from of a large number of formulations, such as aerosol dispenser; suspension of capsules; cold fogging concentrate; dustable powder; emulsifiable concentrate; aqueous-aqueous type emulsion; oil- inverse type emulsion; encapsulated granule; fine granule; suspension concentrate for seed treatment; compressed gas; gas generating product; granule; hot fogging concentrate; macrogranule; microgranule; oil-dispersible powder; oil miscible suspension concentrate; oil- miscible liquid; paste; plant rodlet; powder for dry seed treatment; seeds coated with a pesticide; smoke candle; smoke cartridge; smoke generator; smoke pellet; smoke rodlet; smoke tablet; smoke tin; soluble concentrate; soluble powder; solution for seed treatment; suspension concentrate (= flowable concentrate); tracking powder; ultra low volume liquid; ultra low volume suspension; vapour releasing product; water-dispersible granules or tablets; water dispersible powder for slurry treatment; water-soluble granules or tablets; water-soluble powder for seed treatment; wettable powder.
The fungicide composition of the present invention covers not only the formulations which are ready to be applied to the crop by means of a suitable device, such as a spraying device, but also the commercial concentrated formulations which have to be diluted before application to the crop. The fungicide composition herein described is used in general for application to growing plants, or to sites where crops are grown or intended to grow, or for the coating or film-coating of seeds.
The fungicide composition according to the invention may be applied to the vegetation and in particular to the leaves infested or capable of being infested with the phytopathogenic fungi. Another method of applying the fungicide composition according to the invention is to add a formulation containing the active ingredients to the irrigation water.
For its practical use, the fungicide composition according to the invention can be used alone or in formulations containing one or the other of the active ingredients or alternatively both of them together, in combination or association with one or more other compatible components which are, for example, solid or liquid fillers or diluents, adjuvants, surfactants or equivalents, which are suitable for the desired use and which are acceptable for uses in agriculture. The formulations can be of any type known in the sector which are suitable for application onto all types of cultures or crops. These formulations, which can be prepared in any manner known by the skilled person, also form part of the invention. The formulations can also include ingredients of other types, such as protective colloids, adhesives, thickeners, thixotropic agents, penetrating agents, oils for spraying, stabilisers, preserving agents (in particular mould-proofing or biocide agents), sequestering or chelating agents or the like. More generally, the compounds used in the invention can be combined with any solid or liquid additives corresponding to the usual formulation techniques. The term "filler" means an organic or inorganic, natural or synthetic component with which the active components are combined to facilitate its application, for example, onto the plants, the seeds or the soil. This filler is consequently generally inert and it must be acceptable (for example acceptable for agronomic uses, in particular for treating plants). The filler can be solid, for example clays, natural or synthetic silicates, silica, resins, waxes, solid fertilizers (for example ammonium salts), natural soil minerals, such as kaolins, clays, talc, lime, quartz, attapulgite, montmorillonite, bentonite or diatomaceous earths, or synthetic minerals, such as silica, alumina or silicates, in particular aluminium or magnesium silicates. The solid fillers which are suitable for granules are as follows: natural, crushed or broken rocks, such as calcite, marble, pumice, sepiolite and dolomite; synthetic granules of inorganic or organic flours; granules of organic material such as sawdust, coconut shell, corn ear or envelope, or tobacco stem; kieselguhr, tricalcium phosphate, powdered cork or adsorbent carbon black; water-soluble polymers, resins, waxes; or solid fertilizers. Such composition can, if so desired, contain one or more compatible agents such as wetting agents, dispersing agents, emulsifiers or colourings which, when they are solid, can also act as diluents. The fillers can also be liquid, for example: water, alcohols, in particular butanol or glycol, as well as ethers or esters thereof, in particular methyl glycol acetate; ketones, in particular acetone, cyclohexanone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone or isophorone; petroleum fractions such as paraffinic or aromatic hydrocarbons, in particular xylenes or alkylnaphthalenes; mineral or plant oils; aliphatic chlorohydrocarbons, in particular trichloroethane or methylene chloride; aromatic chlorohydrocarbons, in particular chlorobenzenes; water-soluble or highly polar solvents such as dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulphoxide, N,N-dimethyl-acetamide or N- methylpyrrolidone; N-octylpyrrolidone, liquefied gases; or the like, whether they are taken separately or as a mixture. The surfactant can be an emulsifier, a dispersing agent or a wetting agent, of ionic or nonionic type or a mixture of these surfactants. Among those surfactants there are used, for example, polyacrylic acid salts, lignosulphonic acid salts, phenolsulphonic or naphthalenesulphonic acid salts, polycondensates of ethylene oxide with fatty alcohols or fatty acids or fatty esters or fatty amines, substituted phenols (in particular alkylphenols or arylphenols), ester-salts of sulphosuccinic acid, taurine derivatives (in particular alkyl taurates), phosphoric esters of alcohols or of polycondensates of ethylene oxide with phenols, fatty acid esters with polyols, or sulphate, sulphonate or phosphate functional derivatives of the compounds described above. The presence of at least one surfactant is generally essential when the active ingredients and/or the inert filler are substantially insoluble or only sparingly soluble in water and when the filler for the said composition to be applied is water. The formulations can also contain other additives such as adhesives or dyes. Adhesives such as carboxymethylcellulose, or natural or synthetic polymers in the form of powders, granules or matrices, such as gum arabic, latex, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol or polyvinyl acetate, natural phospholipids, such as cephalins or lecithins, or synthetic phospholipids can be used in the formulations. It is possible to use colourings such as inorganic pigments, such as, for example: iron oxides, titanium oxides, Prussian blue; organic colouring stuffs, such as those of the alizarin, azo or metal phthalocyanin type; or of trace elements such as iron, manganese, boron, copper, cobalt, molybdenum or zinc salts.
According to another object of the present invention, there is provided a method for controlling phytopathogenic fungi of crops, characterized in that an agronomically effective and substantially non-phytotoxic quantity of a fungicide composition as herein defined is applied to the soil where plants grow or are capable of growing, to the leaves or the fruit of plants or to the seeds of plants.
The method according to the invention may either be a curing, preventing or eradicating method. In this method, a composition used may be prepared beforehand by mixing the 2 active compounds.
According to a variant of such a method, it is also possible to apply simultaneously, successively or separately compounds (A) and (B) so as to have the combined or conjugated (A) / (B) effect, of compositions each containing one of the two active ingredients (A) or (B). Advantageously, the quantity of fungicide composition or combination corresponds to a dose of compound (A) and of compound (B) from 1g/ha to 2,000g/ha, preferably from 100g/ha to 3500g/ha, more preferably from 2g/ha to 1,000g/ha, even more preferably from 5g/ha to 700g/ha. Under specific conditions, for example according to the nature of the phytopathogenic fungus to be controlled, a lower dose may offer adequate protection. Certain climatic conditions, resistance or other factors like the nature of the phytopathogenic fungi to be eliminated or the degree of infestation, for example, of the plants with these fungi, may require higher doses of combined active ingredients.
The optimum dose usually depends on several factors, for example on the type of phytopathogenic fungus to be controlled, on the type or level of development of the infested plant, on the density of vegetation, or alternatively on the method of application. Without it being limiting, the crops treated with the fungicide composition or combination according to the invention are, for example, cereals, but this could be grapevines, vegetables, lucerne, soybean, market garden crops, turf, wood, tree or horticultural plants.
