Definitions
- the present invention relates to a herbicidal composition comprising metazachlor and imazamox, any of its individual isomers or agriculturally acceptable salts, esters or amides thereof.
- the invention also relates to methods and uses for controlling undesirable vegetation, in particular in crops.
- Resistant weed biotypes are a consequence of basic evolutionary processes. Individuals within a species that are best adapted to a particular practice are selected for and will increase in the population. Once a weed population is exposed to a herbicide to which one or more plants are naturally resistant, the herbicide kills susceptible individuals, but allows resistant individuals to survive and reproduce. With repeated herbicide use, resistant weeds that initially appear as isolated plants or patches in a field can quickly spread to dominate the population and the soil seed bank.
- herbicide resistance within weeds in particular grass weeds such as, for example, Alopecurus myosuroides (ALOMY), Apera spica-venti (APESV) or Lolium species (LOLSS) has become a major concern for farmers, resulting in dramatic weed control problems, for example in cereal crops.
- Herbicides from the group of ACCase- and ALS-inhibitors are most affected by resistance evolution but also various other types of herbicides.
- Metazachlor is the common name of the herbicidal compound with the lUPAC name 2-chloro-N- (pyrazol-1-ylmethyl)acet-2',6'-xylidide and the Chemical Abstracts name 2-chloro-N-(2,6- dimethylphenyl)-N-(1 H-pyrazol-1 -ylmethyl)acetamide (CAS RN 67129-08-2) that is described in the The Pesticide Manual, Fourteenth Edition, Editor: C.D.S. Tomlin, British Crop Production Council, 2006, entry 543, pages 687-689.
- Metazachlor can be used for pre-emergence and early post-emergence control of winter and annual grasses and broad-leaved weeds in various crops including oilseed rape. Metazachlor exists in different polymorphic forms. The monoclinic form is disclosed in EP 41 1408. The polymorphs of Metazachlor are further described in U. J. Griesser, D. Weigand, J. M. Rollinger, M. Haddow, E. Gstrein, J. Therm. Anal. Calorim., 77 (2004) 51 1 and D. Weigand, Ph.D. thesis, Innsbruck, 2001.

- the R-isomer of imazamox is known from e.g. US 5,972,154 or US 6,339,158 B1 .
- the ammonium salt of imazamox (common name: imazamox-ammonium; lUPAC name: ammonium 2-[(RS)-4-isopropyl-4-methyl-5-oxo-2- imidazolin-2-yl]-5-methoxymethylnicotinate; Chemical Abstracts name: ammonium 2-[4,5- dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1 -methylethyl)-5-oxo-1 H-imidazol-2-yl]-5-(methoxymethyl)-3- pyridinecarboxylate, CAS RN 247057-22-3) is also described in the The Pesticide Manual, Fourteenth Edition, Editor: C.D.S.
- Imazamox is an effective herbicide for the control of both terrestrial and aquatic vegetation and is a member of the imidazolinone class of herbicides. All imidazolinone herbicides share a common mechanism of herbicidal action that involves the inhibition of acetolactate synthase (ALS).

- genetically modified plants is to be understood as plants whose genetic material has been modified by the use of recombinant DNA techniques to include an inserted sequence of DNA that is not native to that plant species'genome or to exhibit a deletion of DNA that was native to that species'genome, wherein the modification(s) cannot readily be obtained by cross breeding, mutagenesis or natural recombination alone.

- 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-translational modification of protein(s), oligo- or polypeptides, e. g., by inclusion therein of amino acid mutation(s) that permit, decrease, or promote glycosylation or polymer additions such as prenylation, acetylation farnesylation, or PEG moiety attachment.

- test plants are seeded, separately for each species, in plastic containers in sandy loamy soil containing 5% of organic matter.
- the active compounds suspended or emulsified in water, are applied directly after sowing by means of finely distributing nozzles.
- the containers are irrigated gently to promote germination and growth and subsequently covered with transparent plastic hoods until the plants have rooted. This cover causes uniform germination of the test plants unless this is adversely affected by the active compounds.
- the plants are first grown to the 2 leaf station (GS 12).
- the herbicidal compositions are suspended or emulsified in water as distribution medium and sprayed using finely distributing nozzels.
- the plants are cultivated due to their individual requirements at 10 - 25°C and 20 - 35°C.
- the plants are irrigated due to their necessity.

- the evaluation for the damage on undesired weeds caused by the chemical compositions is carried out using a scale from 0 to 100%, compared to the untreated control plants.
- 0 means no damage
- 100 means complete destruction of the plants.
- the plants used in the greenhouse experiments can be selected, inter alia, from the following species:
- Colby's equation can be applied to determine whether a combination of two active ingredients (e.g. herbicide A and herbicide B) shows a synergistic effect (see S. R. Colby, "Calculating synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations", Weeds 1967, 15, pp. 20-22).
- E, X and Y are as defined above and Z is the herbicidal effect in percent using a herbicide C (as defined herein) at an application rate c.
- the value E corresponds to the effect (plant damage or injury) which is to be expected if the activity of the individual compounds is additive. If the observed effect is higher than the value E calculated according to the Colby equation, a synergistic effect is present.
