Description

COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING A QUILLAY EXTRACT AND AN INSECTICIDAL ACTIVE INGREDIENT
Description The present invention relates to mixtures comprising as active components a Quillay extract and an insecticidal active ingredient.
Quillaja saponaria, Molina, the soapbark tree, is an evergreen tree in the family Quillajaceae, native to warm temperate central Chile.
Extracts of the barksoap tree (Quillaja saponaria Mol.) are well-known (CAS-No. 68990-67-0) and safe cosmetic, food and pharmaceutical additives e.g. used as adjuvant in vaccine solutions. Such soapbark tree, also called China bark extract, Murillo bark extract, Panama bark extract, Quillai extract, Quillaia extract or Quillay extract, generally comprises the milled inner bark, wood, small stems, small branches and/or leaves of the soapbark tree and contains saponins, polyphenols and other ingredients.
Quillay extract-based products (e.g. QL Agri 35, BASF SE) have been also applied as nematicides especially indicated for the control of nematodes in vineyards and citric trees.
Further, an acaricidal mixture comprising the Quillay extract QL Agri 35 and sulfur (Acoidal WG) is marketed by BASF SE.
In WO 2007/046680 an organic insecticide blend is described for the control of Aedes aegypti, comprising extracts from Quillaja saponaria, Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium
(pyrethrins), Azadirachta indica, Azadirachtin, and a garlic waterish extract.
Quillay extracts are commercially available e.g. under the trademark QL Agri 35 produced by Natural Response S.A., Quilpue, Chile, and marketed by Desert King Chile and BASF SE. Usually the water-based extraction step takes place at temperatures between 5°C and 95°C, preferably at 20°C to 90°C, even more preferably at 40°C to 90°C. It contains a minimum of 6 % of saponins, 15 % polyphenols and about 35 °Brix, and has a total solids content of 350 g/l (the total solids content, or dry mass content, containing in general a residual moisture content of at most 5% by weight, preferably at most 2% by weight, based on the total weight of the solids content). The percentages are weight percentages and relative to the volume of the extract. One degree Brix is 1 gram of sucrose in 100 grams of solution and represents the strength of the solution as percentage by weight (% w/w) (strictly speaking, by mass). If the solution contains dissolved solids other than pure sucrose, then the °Brix is only approximate the dissolved solid content. Further suitable Quillay extracts are commercially available (trademarks QL 1000, QP 1000, QL Ultra, QL 30B and Vax Sap, produced by Natural Response S.A.
Quilpue, Chile).
Practical agricultural experience has shown that the repeated and exclusive application of an individual active compound in the control of insects or other pests leads in many cases to a rapid selection of those pest isolates which have developed natural or adapted resistance against the active compound in question. Effective control of these pests with the active compound in question is then no longer possible.
To reduce the risk of the selection of resistant insect or other pest isolates, mixtures of different active components are nowadays conventionally employed for controlling harmful insects or other pests. By combining active compounds and/or active biological extracts having different mechanisms of action, it is possible to ensure successful control over a relatively long period of time.
It is an object of the present invention to provide, with a view to effective resistance management and effective control of phytopathogenic harmful insects or other pests, at application rates which are as low as possible, compositions which, at a reduced total amount of active components applied, have improved activity against the harmful pests (synergistic mixtures) and a broadened activity spectrum, in particular for certain indications.
We have accordingly found that this object is achieved by the mixtures and compostions defined herein, comprising a Quillay extract and an insecticidal active ingredient as defined herein.

More details, e.g. as to suitable liquid and solid carriers, surfactants and customary auxiliaries are described below.
In a specific embodiment, the mixture of the invention is a physical mixture.
The invention also relates to a method for controlling phytopathogenic harmful insects and other pests using mixtures of a Quillay extract and and at least one compound II and to the use of a Quillay extract and compounds II for preparing such mixtures, and to compositions comprising these mixtures and seed comprising these mixtures or coated with this mixture. In a specific embodiment of the invention, the method of the invention does not include a treatment of a human or animal body.
Moreover, we have found that simultaneous, that is joint or separate, application of a Quillay extract and a compound II or successive application of a Quillay extract and of compound II allows better control of harmful insects or other pests than is possible with the individual compounds alone (synergistic mixtures). Thus, the invention also relates to the use of a mixture of the invention as defined above or below or of an agricultural composition as defined below or of a Quillay extract in combination with at least one insecticidal compound II selected from groups A') to O') as defined above or below and optionally also in combination with at least one active component 3) as defined below for controlling phytopathogenic harmful insects.
The use of the Quillay extract "in combination with" the at least one insecticidal compound II on the one hand can be understood as using a physical mixture of Quillay extract and at least one compound II. On the other hand, the combined use may also consist in using the Quillay extract and the at least one compound II separately, but locus- and time-related (i.e. both components are applied to the same "substrate" (plant, part thereof, insect, habitat of the insect etc.) within a sufficiently short time of one another), so that the desired effect can take place. More detailed illustrations of the combined use can be found in the specifications below.
The invention further relates to the mixture of the invention for use as a medicament and to the use of a mixture of the invention as defined above or below or of a pharmaceutical or cosmetic composition containing said mixture for treating or protecting an animal or a human from infestation or infection by invertebrate pests, especially lice, and for preparing a medicament, especially a medicament for treating or protecting an animal or a human from infestation or infection by invertebrate pests, especially lice.
According to one embodiment, the mixtures comprise component 1 ) and component 2) in a synergistically effective amount.
Compounds II can be present in different crystal modifications, which may differ in biological activity.
The active component 1 ) of the mixture can be found on the basis of the soap bark tree (Quillaja saponaria), from wood, branches and the bark of the tree, which are milled. Quillaja can as well be used as an extract of flakes from branches and the bark from the soap bark tree. The extract can be based on pure water extraction or a blend of water and alcohol as a means of extraction. The extract can be used as a liquid product or it can be spray dried. The abovementioned commercially available extracts are also suitable.
According to one embodiment, the mixtures comprise as component 1 ) a water-based Quillay extract. The term "water-based Quillay extract" is to be understood that the extract of the material of the Quillay tree is obtained by solid-liquid extraction wherein the liquid is water or a water-based solution comprising water-soluble solvents (such as alcohols, e.g. ethanol, propanol, butanol, benzylalcohol, cyclohexanol; glycols; DMSO; ketones, e.g. cyclohexanone; esters) and/or other auxiliaries (such as liquid carriers, solid carriers or fillers, surfactants, dispersants, emulsifiers, wetters, adjuvants, solubilizers, penetration enhancers, protective colloids, adhesion agents, thickeners, humectants, bactericides, anti-freezing agents, anti- foaming agents, tackifiers and binders).
In some embodiments of the invention, the Quillay extract is obtained by extraction from the Quillay tree by employing water, alcohol or a water/alcohol solution. In some embodiments, the alcohol is ethanol or methanol.
In some embodiments, the extraction is achieved by employing a water/alcohol solution. In some embodiments, the water/alcohol solution has a water/alcohol ratio of from 80:20 to 20:80. In further embodiments, the water/alcohol solution has a water/alcohol ratio of from 60:40 to 40:60. In further embodiments, the water/alcohol solution is 80:20 water/alcohol, 60:40 water/alcohol, 50:50 water/alcohol, 40:60 water/ alcohol ratio or 20:80 water/alcohol. The water/alcohol ratios given are volume/volume. Specifically, the extractant is water.
The extraction time may vary without limitation from 1 to 8 hours, at or above room temperature (20°C-30°C), e.g., above 30°C, 40°C, 50°C or 60°C. In some embodiments, the extraction is carried out at a temperature between 30°C and 70°C.
In some embodiments, the extraction process comprising: treating the Quillay material in a water or water/alcohol solution.
Optionally, the so-extracted material may subsequently be purified by any means known in the art, including: filtration, centrifugation, re-crystallization, distillation, adsorption,
chromatographic methods, fractionation, etc.
In some embodiments, the Quillay material is first dried and ground before being treated in the water or water/alcohol solution.
Optionally, the Quillay extract may be concentrated e.g. by evaporating or drying the extract- containing solution to obtain a concentrated liquid extract or a dried extract.
According to a further embodiment, the Quillay extract contains a minimum of 2 % of saponins and 5 % polyphenols and at least 15 °Brix; more preferably a minimum of 4 % of saponins and 10 % polyphenols and at least 25 °Brix. The percentages are weight percentages and relative to the volume of the extract. In an alternative embodiment, the Quillay extract contains a minimum of 5 % by weight of saponins and at least 10 % by weight of polyphenols, relative to the dry mass of the extract, and at least 15 °Brix; e.g. at least 9 % by weight of saponins and at least 20 % by weight of polyphenols, relative to the dry mass of the extract, and at least 15 °Brix; more preferably a minimum of 4 % by weight of saponins and at least 10 % by weight of polyphenols, relative to the dry mass of the extract, and at least 25 °Brix; e.g. at least 10 % by weight of saponins and at least 25 % by weight of polyphenols, relative to the dry mass of the extract, and at least 25 °Brix. The dry mass contains at most 5% by weight, preferably at most 2% by weight of residual liquid components, such as extractants (in general water, possibly also alcohol; mostly however residual moisture), based on the total weight of the dry mass.
In a specific embodiment, the Quillay extract is obtained by a process as described for example in CL 2573-2002. Chipped or milled wood, branches and/or the bark or flakes from branches and/or the bark of Quillaja saponaria are submitted to a solid/liquid extraction process using water as extractant. The extraction temperature may vary between 20 and 95°C (i.e. is of from 20 to 95°C), e.g. 40 to 90°C, but is specifically ca. 60°C (+/- 10°C, preferably +/- 5°C). The extraction time is in inverse proportion to the extraction temperature and is in general of from 0.5 to 5 h. For an extraction temperature of ca. 60°C, it is specifically ca. 2 to 3 h. After extraction, undesired products are generally removed. To this purpose, clarifying (precipitation- inducing) additives, such as albumen, bovine or fish gelatin, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (OVP), polyvinyl polypyrrolidone (PVPP), silica or, in particular, bentonite are added. Filtration of the mixture over suitable means, e.g. over diatomaceous earth or silica pads, is followed by concentration and pasteurization. For preservation purposes, the concentrate is brought to a pH of 3-4, especially 3.5 to 4.5, very especially ca. 3.9 (+/- 0.2). Very specifically, the Quillay extract used is QL Agri® 35. Further details of this product are given above and in the examples (minimum of 6 % of saponins, ca. 15 % polyphenols, about 35 °Brix, ca. 350 g/l of solids content).

Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum MBI600 (NRRL B-50595) is deposited under accession number NRRL B-50595 with the strain designation Bacillus subtilis 1430 (and identical to NCIMB 1237). Recently, MBI 600 has been re-classified as Bacillus
amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum based on polyphasic testing which combines classical microbiological methods relying on a mixture of traditional tools (such as culture-based methods) and molecular tools (such as genotyping and fatty acids analysis). Thus, Bacillus subtilis MBI600 (or MBI 600 or MBI-600) is identical to Bacillus amyloliquefaciens subsp. plantarum MBI600, formerly Bacillus subtilis MBI600. Bacillus amyloliquefaciens MBI600 is known as plant growth-promoting rice seed treatment from Int. J. Microbiol. Res. 3(2) (201 1 ), 120-130 and further described e.g. in US 2012/0149571 A1.

The term "plant propagation material" is to be understood to denote all the generative parts of the plant such as seeds and vegetative plant material such as cuttings and tubers (e. g.
potatoes), which can be used for the multiplication of the plant. This includes seeds, roots, fruits, tubers, bulbs, rhizomes, shoots, sprouts and other parts of plants, including seedlings and young plants, which are to be transplanted after germination or after emergence from soil.
These young plants may also be protected before transplantation by a total or partial treatment by immersion or pouring.
Preferably, treatment of plant propagation materials with the inventive combination of the Quillay extract and compounds II and compositions thereof, respectively, is used for controlling a multitude of pests on cereals, such as wheat, rye, barley and oats; rice, corn, cotton and soybeans. The term "cultivated plants" is to be understood as including plants which have been modified by breeding, mutagenesis or genetic engineering including but not limiting to agricultural biotech products on the market or in development (cf. http://cera-gmc.org/, see GM crop database therein). Genetically modified plants are plants, which genetic material has been so modified by the use of recombinant DNA techniques that under natural circumstances cannot readily be obtained by cross breeding, mutations or natural recombination. Typically, one or more genes have been integrated into the genetic material of a genetically modified plant in order to improve certain properties of the plant. Such genetic modifications also include but are not limited to targeted post-transtional modification of protein(s), oligo- or polypeptides e. g. by glycosylation or polymer additions such as prenylated, acetylated or farnesylated moieties or PEG moieties.
In particular, the mixtures and compositions of the present invention are effective against plant pests in speciality crops such as vine, fruits, hop, vegetables and tabacco.
Plant propagation materials may be treated with the mixtures and compositions of the invention prophylactically either at or before planting or transplanting.
The invention also relates to agrochemical compositions comprising an auxiliary and a Quillay extract and at least one compound II according to the invention.
An agrochemical composition comprises an insecticidally effective amount of a Quillay extract and a compound II. The term "effective amount" denotes an amount of the composition or of a Quillay extract, which is sufficient for controlling harmful pests on cultivated plants or in the protection of materials and which does not result in a substantial damage to the treated plants. Such an amount can vary in a broad range and is dependent on various factors, such as the pest species to be controlled, the treated cultivated plant or material, the climatic conditions and the specific compound II used.
The Quillay extract and the compounds II, their N-oxides and salts can be converted into customary types of agrochemical compositions, e. g. solutions, emulsions, suspensions, dusts, powders, pastes, granules, pressings, capsules, and mixtures thereof. Examples for
composition types are suspensions (e.g. SC, OD, FS), emulsifiable concentrates (e.g. EC), emulsions (e.g. EW, EO, ES, ME), capsules (e.g. CS, ZC), pastes, pastilles, wettable powders or dusts (e.g. WP, SP, WS, DP, DS), pressings (e.g. BR, TB, DT), granules (e.g. WG, SG, GR, FG, GG, MG), insecticidal articles (e.g. LN), as well as gel formulations for the treatment of plant propagation materials such as seeds (e.g. GF).

The compositions in question give, after two-to-tenfold dilution, active substance concentrations of from 0.01 to 60% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 40%, in the ready-to-use preparations.
Application can be carried out before or during sowing. Methods for applying or treating with the Quillay extract and compound II and compositions thereof, respectively, on to plant propagation material, especially seeds include dressing, coating, pelleting, dusting, soaking and in-furrow application methods of the propagation material. Preferably, the Quillay extract and compound II or the compositions thereof, respectively, are applied on to the plant propagation material by a method such that germination is not induced, e. g. by seed dressing, pelleting, coating and dusting.
When employed in plant protection, the amounts of active components applied are, depending on the kind of effect desired, from 0.001 to 20 kg per ha, preferably from 0.005 to 5 kg per ha, more preferably from 0.05 to 1 kg per ha, in particular from 0.1 to 0.75 kg per ha.

Amounts customarily applied in the protection of materials are 0.001 g to 2 kg, preferably 0.005 g to 1 kg, of active substance per cubic meter of treated material.
Various types of oils, wetters, adjuvants, fertilizer, or micronutrients, and further pesticides (e.g. herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, growth regulators, safeners) may be added to the active substances or the compositions comprising them as premix or, if appropriate not until immediately prior to use (tank mix). These agents can be admixed with the compositions according to the invention in a weight ratio of 1 :100 to 100:1 , preferably 1 :10 to 10:1.

The user applies the composition according to the invention usually from a predosage device, a knapsack sprayer, a spray tank, a spray plane, or an irrigation system. Usually, the agrochemical composition is made up with water, buffer, and/or further auxiliaries to the desired application concentration and the ready-to-use spray liquor or the agrochemical composition according to the invention is thus obtained. Usually, 20 to 2000 liters, preferably 50 to 400 liters, of the ready-to-use spray liquor are applied per hectare of agricultural useful area.
According to one embodiment, individual components of the composition according to the invention such as parts of a kit or parts of a binary or ternary mixture may be mixed by the user himself in a spray tank and further auxiliaries may be added, if appropriate.
In the binary mixtures and compositions according to the invention, the weight ratio of the Quillay extract and compound II generally depends from the properties of the compounds II used, usually it is in the range of from 1 :100 to 100:1 , regularly in the range of from 1 :50 to 50:1 , preferably in the range of from 1 :20 to 20:1 , more preferably in the range of from 1 :10 to 10:1 , even more preferably in the range of from 1 :4 to 4:1 and in particular in the range of from 1 :2 to 2:1.

Preferably, however, the Quillay extract is used in excess as compared to the compound II, i.e. the weight ratio of the Quillay extract versus compound II usually is in the range of from 100:1 to 1 :1 , regularly in the range of from 50:1 to 1 :1 , preferably in the range of from 20:1 to 1 :1 , more preferably in the range of from 10:1 to 1 :1 , even more preferably in the range of from 4:1 to 1 :1 , e.g. of from 3:1 to 1 :1 , and in particular in the range of from 2:1 to 1 :1 .
In the above weight ratios, the amount of Quillay extract is based on the amount of the solid material (dry matter). The solid material may contain at most 5% by weight, preferably at most 2% by weight, based on the total weight of the solid material, of residual liquid components, such as extractants (in general water, possibly also alcohol; mostly however residual moisture).
In the ternary mixtures, i.e. compositions according to the invention comprising a Quillay extract (component 1 ) and a compound II (component 2) and a compound III (component 3), the weight ratio of component 1 ) and component 2) depends from the properties of the active substances used, usually it is in the range of from 1 :100 to 100:1 , regularly in the range of from 1 :50 to 50:1 , preferably in the range of from 1 :20 to 20:1 , more preferably in the range of from 1 :10 to 10:1 and in particular in the range of from 1 :4 to 4:1 , and the weight ratio of component 1 ) and component 3) usually it is in the range of from 1 :100 to 100:1 , regularly in the range of from 1 :50 to 50:1 , preferably in the range of from 1 :20 to 20:1 , more preferably in the range of from 1 :10 to 10:1 and in particular in the range of from 1 :4 to 4:1.
Any further active components are, if desired, added in a ratio of from 20:1 to 1 :20 to the Quillay extract.
In the mixtures and compositions, uses and methods of the present invention, the compound ratios (e. g. Quillay extract/compound I l/compound III ratio) are advantageously chosen so as to produce a synergistic effect.
This means that the relative amount, i.e. the weight ratio of the Quillay extract and the at least one compound II in the mixture or composition provides for an increased insecticidal efficacy on at least one harmful insect which exceeds the additive insecticidal efficacy of the components of the mixture or composition as calculated from the insecticidal efficacy of the individual components at a given application rate.
The term "synergstic effect" is understood to refer in particular to that defined by Colby's formula (Colby, S. R., "Calculating synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations", Weeds, 15, pp. 20-22, 1967).
The term "synergistic effect" is also understood to refer to that defined by application of the Tammes method, (Tammes, P. M. L, "Isoboles, a graphic representation of synergism in pesticides", Netherl. J. Plant Pathol. 70, 1964).
The components can be used individually or already partially or completely mixed with one another to prepare the composition according to the invention. It is also possible for them to be packaged and used as combination such as a kit of parts.
The mixture of the invention is in particular also suitable for being used for combating parasites in and on animals (including humans).
A further object of the present invention is therefore to provide a method for controlling parasites in and on animals (including humans). Another object of the invention is to provide safer pesticides for animals (including humans). Another object of the invention is further to provide pesticides for animals (including humans) that may be used in lower doses than existing pesticides. And another object of the invention is to provide pesticides for animals (including humans), which provide a long residual control of the parasites.
The invention also relates to compositions containing a parasiticidally effective amount of the mixture of the invention and an acceptable carrier, for combating parasites in and on animals
(including humans).
The present invention also provides a method for treating, controlling, preventing and protecting animals against infestation and infection by parasites, which comprises orally, topically or parenterally administering or applying to the animals a parasiticidally effective amount of the mixture of the invention or a composition comprising it.
The present invention also provides a non-therapeutic method for treating, controlling, preventing and protecting animals against infestation and infection by parasites, which comprises applying to a locus a parasiticidally effective amount of the mixture of the invention or a composition comprising it.
The invention also provides a process for the preparation of a composition for treating, controlling, preventing or protecting animals against infestation or infection by parasites which comprises including a parasiticidally effective amount of the mixture of the invention or a composition comprising it.
The invention relates further to the use of the mixture of the invention for treating, controlling, preventing or protecting animals against infestation or infection by parasites.
The invention also relates to the use of the mixture of the invention or a composition comprising it, for the manufacture of a medicament for the therapeutic treatment of animals against infections or infestions by parasites.
Activity of compounds or mixtures against agricultural pests does not suggest their suitability for control of endo- and ectoparasites in and on animals which requires, for example, low, nonemetic dosages in the case of oral application, metabolic compatibility with the animal, low toxicity, and a safe handling.
The mixture of the invention and compositions comprising it are preferably used for controlling and preventing infestations and infections animals including warm-blooded animals (including humans) and fish. They are for example suitable for controlling and preventing infestations and infections in mammals such as cattle, sheep, swine, camels, deer, horses, pigs, poultry, rabbits, goats, dogs and cats, water buffalo, donkeys, fallow deer and reindeer, and also in fur-bearing animals such as mink, chinchilla and raccoon, birds such as hens, geese, turkeys and ducks and fish such as fresh- and salt-water fish such as trout, carp and eels.
The mixture of the invention and compositions comprising it are preferably used for controlling and preventing infestations and infections in domestic animals, such as dogs or cats, or in humans.
Infestations in warm-blooded animals and fish include, but are not limited to, lice, biting lice, ticks, nasal bots, keds, biting flies, muscoid flies, flies, myiasitic fly larvae, chiggers, gnats, mosquitoes and fleas. Especially, the treatment of lice (Phthiraptera), e.g. Pediculus humanus capitis, Pediculus humanus corporis, Pthirus pubis, Haematopinus eurysternus, Haematopinus suis, Linognathus vituli, Bovicola bovis, Menopon gallinae, Menacanthus stramineus and Solenopotes capillatus, is envisaged.
The mixture of the invention can be effective through both contact (via soil, glass, wall, bed net, carpet, blankets or animal parts) and ingestion (e.g. baits).
The mixture of the invention may be used to protect the animals from attack or infestation by parasites by contacting them with a parasitically effective amount of compounds of formula I. As such, "contacting" includes both direct contact (applying the mixture/its components/compositions directly on the parasite, e.g. also at its locus, and optionally also administrating the mixture/its components/composition directly on the animal) and indirect contact (applying the mixture/its components/compositions to the locus of the parasite). The contact of the parasite through application to its locus is an example of a non-therapeutic use of compounds of formula I.
"Locus" as defined above means the habitat, food supply, breeding ground, area, material or environment in which a parasite is growing or may grow outside of the animal. The mixture of the invention can also be applied preventively to places at which occurrence of the pests or parasites are expected.
Administration to the animal can be carried out both prophylactically and therapeutically.
Administration of the mixture of the invention is carried out directly or in the form of suitable preparations, orally, topically/dermally or parenterally. Suitable preparations are principally known and are described, for example, in WO2010/1 12545.
Examples
1 . Activity of Quillay extract in combination with cyflumetofen against mites (Brevipalpus chilensis) in grapes
The experiments were carried out in 2012 in Alto Jahuel (50 km South of Santiago, Chile). For the experiments 15 year old vineyard grapevine var. Cabernet Sauvignon standing at a distance of 1.5 m over the row and 3 m between the rows were used. Before application, all plots for every treatment were marked and immediately a leaf sample was taken; mobile states of Brevipalpus chilensis were counted and the plants were grouped according to density. The design was a randomized complete block with an experimental unit (plot) of six plants; repetition with four replications by treatment. On January 31 , 2012 the plants were either treated with a Quillay extract alone (used in form of the commercial product QL Agri® 35 from BASF; a soluble concentrate containing 35% by weight of solid matter, relative to the total weight of the concentrate; diluted with water to a concentration of 1 .0 g/l; application rate: 280 g of solid matter per ha), or with cyflumetofen alone (used in form of a suspension concentrate containing 200 g/l of active compound; diluted with water to a concentration of 0.6 g/l; application rate: 96 g a.i. per ha) or with a combination of Quillay extract and cyflumetofen (280 g of solid matter per ha + 96 g a.i. per ha). A part of the plants remained untreated (control). For application, a 240 liters sprayer with a constant operation pressure and coverage of 800 liters of water per hectare was used. At 15, 30, 45 and 60 days after spraying a representative sample of 25 leaves per plot was taken and the number of living mites was counted. For determinaing the efficacy of the different treatments, the Henderson and Tilton formula was used:
Grade of efficacy in % = ( 1 - Ta x Ub ) x 100
Tb x Ua
Ub= number of mites in the untreated plot before treatment
Tb= number of mites in the treated plot before treatment
Ua=number of mites in the untreated plot after treatment
Ta=number of mites in the treated plot after treatment
