Definitions
- Various aspects disclosed herein relate to new fungal zoospore attractant releasing compositions which may be well suited for formulation with fungicides in various compositions that may be used in methods of controlling fungi.
- the life cycle of many oomycete pathogens involves a series of spore forms that are very important in the spread and propagation of these diseases.
- oomycete pseudo-fungi such as Phytophthora infestans, the cause of late blight of potatoes, and Plasmopara viticola, which causes downy mildew of grapes
- non-motile spores called sporangia are produced by the fungal pathogen.
- the contents of sporangia form additional spores called zoospores.
- Zoospores have flagella and are capable of swimming in water, i.e. they are motile.
- Zoospores serve as major infection agents by swimming to and encysting near the stomata of a plant or other suitable places on the leaf, stem, root, seed or tuber for infecting the plant. On foliage, the stomata are then entered into by germ tubes from the germinating cysts or in some cases the germ tube from the encysted zoospore can directly penetrate the leaf or root surface.
- zoospore attractants may generally be described as a substance or compound that causes a chemotactic response by a zoospore. Examples of some zoospore attractant chemicals are disclosed in the article "Fatty acids, aldehydes and alcohols as attractants for zoospores of Phytophthora palmivora" in Nature, volume 217, page 448, by Cameron and Carlile.
- zoospore attractants may be found in the articles "Biology of Phytophthora zoospores" in Phytopathology, volume 60, pages 1128-1135 by Hickman and "Chemotactic response of zoospores of five species of Phytophthora” in Phytopathology, volume 63, page 1511 by Khew. The disclosures of each of the above mentioned articles are expressly incorporated by reference herein. [0005] Generally, these zoospore attractant chemicals or substances are produced by the root region of plants and may enhance the infection process in the rhizosphere by enabling the zoospores to locate a point for infection.

- FIG. 1 shows some acylhydrazone and semicarbazone derivatives of aldehydes and ketones used in accordance with the methods disclosed herein and tested for their ability to attract zoospores.
- FIG. 2 shows a summary of the data collected by testing the ability of various acylhydrazone and semicarbazone derivatives of aldehydes and ketones to attract motile zoospores of Phytophthora capsici (PHYTCA) and Plasmopara viticola (PLASVI).
- the present invention relates to compounds that are or may form derivatives of zoospore attractant compounds that release zoospore attractants and may be used to increase the efficacy of fungicides for controlling plant diseases caused by oomycete pathogens.
- inventive methods comprise contacting a plant at risk of being diseased from an oomycete pathogen that produces zoospores with a composition comprising an effective amount of a fungicide and a zoospore attractant derivative.

- Useful zoospore attractant derivatives and the attractants they release may vary depending upon the type of plant, the fungal pathogen and environmental conditions.
- Typical zoospore attractants may include, for example, derivatives of C4-C8 aldehydes or C4-C8 ketones.
- Zoospore attractant derivatives may also be absorbed onto or embedded into an inert substrate such as PergoPak M, corn starch, clay, latex agglomerates, or fertilizer particles.
- Zoospore attractant derivatives may be used for purposes such as controlled release of the attractant molecule.
- Zoospore attractant derivatives are chemical compounds generally made or derived from zoospore attractant molecules.
- Zoospore attractant derivatives may be used in combination with zoospore attractants and fungicides.
- Suitable zoospore attractant derivatives such as acylhydrazone derivatives or semicarbazone derivatives of various aldehydes and ketones may be less volatile and/or water soluble than their corresponding aldehyde or ketone. These derivatives may produce or release zoospore attractants once the derivative comes into contact with water on a plant surface or the area adjacent to the plant. Examples of hydrazone derivative technology are included in PCT Patent Application No.
- the rate of production of the zoospore attractant is dependent on many factors, among them: the physico-chemical properties of the zoospore attractant derivative, the composition of the formulation containing the derivative, the presence and duration of water on the plant surface, and the temperature, humidity and other environmental conditions in the area of the application. As shown, this hydrolysis reaction is theoretically reversible, but this reversibility under practical agricultural conditions is likely to be low.
- the aforementioned zoospore attractant derivatives when used in combination with fungicides may provide particularly effective control of diseases caused by the pathogens Phytophthora infestans, Plasmopara viticola, Phytophthora capsici, and Pseudoperonospora cubensis.
- Other pathogens that may also be controlled on a variety of plants such as tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, grapes, cucurbits, lettuce, beans, sorghum, corn, citrus, turf grasses, pecans, apples, pears, hops, and crucifiers include: Bremia lactucae, Phytophthora phaseoli, Phytophthora nicotiane var.
- the effective amount of the zoospore attractant derivative to be employed with the fungicide often depends upon, for example, the type of plants, the stage of growth of the plant, severity of environmental conditions, the fungal pathogen and application conditions.
- a plant in need of fungal protection, control or elimination is contacted with an amount of zoospore attractant derivative from about 1 to about 5000 ppm, preferably from about 10 to about 1000 ppm of the zoospore attractant derivative.
- the contacting may be in any effective manner.
- any exposed part of the plant, e.g., leaves or stems may be sprayed with the attractant derivative in mixture with effective rates of a fungicide.

- the aforementioned zoospore attractant derivative enhanced fungicides may be applied to the plant foliage or the soil or area adjacent to the plant.
- the zoospore attractant derivative enhanced fungicides may be mixed with or applied with any combination of herbicides, insecticides, bactericides, nematocides, miticides, biocides, termiticides, rodenticides, molluscides, arthropodicides, fertilizers, growth regulators, and pheromones.

- Fig. 1 the compounds listed therein were evaluated for their ability to attract motile zoospores of two different fungi Phytophthora capsici (PHYTCA) and Plasmopara viticola (PLASVI). Compounds with sufficient water solubility were tested as 5 mM solutions. Compounds with insufficient water solubility were milled and formulated as 10% suspension concentrates. Solutions for suspension concentrates were placed in 1.0 cm Drummond Size 2 microcap capillary tubes. Tubes were placed in the well of a 12- well plate and held in place with a small drop of Dow Corning vacuum grease.
- PHYTCA Phytophthora capsici
- PLASVI Plasmopara viticola
- Phytophthora capsici was grown on V- 8 agar. When the culture was 5-7 days old and producing abundant sporangia, production of zoospores was initiated by adding 15 ml of sterile water to the plate. After 10 minutes at room temperature, the flooded plate was placed in a refrigerator at 4°C for 20 minutes. Then the plate was returned to room temperature for 30-60 minutes. The zoospore suspension was then filtered through Whatman 113V Filter paper.
- sporangia were harvested from three leaves of grapes (Vitis vinifera cv Carignane) that were completely infected and producing abundant sporulation. The infected leaves were placed in de-ionized water and sporangia were dislodged by brushing the leaf lightly. The solution including the dislodged sporangia was allowed to sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. The solution was transferred to a refrigerator at 4°C for 20 minutes and then returned to room temperature for 60 to 90 minutes, at which time large numbers of zoospores were present. The zoospore suspension then was filtered through Whatman 113 V Filter paper.
- That ratio was scored semi-quantitatively on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 representing no accumulation of zoospores inside the capillary tube, with 2 representing an accumulation of zoospores inside the capillary tube about equal to the zoospore density in the external solution, with 5 representing an accumulation about 5 fold the density in the external solution and 10 representing a capillary full of zoospores at a density too numerous to count.
