  • Septoria tritici is a species of filamentous fungus, an ascomycete in the family Myco- sphaerellaceae. It is a plant pathogen causing septoria leaf blotch, which is currently the most dominant cereal disease. Control of Septoria leaf blotch is becoming more and more difficult for farmers. Reason is the capability of the fungi to develop resistance to widely used powerful fun- gicidal agents.
  • fungicides containing azole and strobilurine mixtures have been widely and suc- cessfully used in recent years for Septoria control. Strobilurins lost their activity due to the development of the G143A resistance which is mean- while widespread in most cereal growing regions in Europe (Fraaije B. A., Brunett F. J., Clark W. S., Motteram J., Lucas J. A. (2005). Resistance development to Qol inhibitors in populations of Mycosphaerella graminicola in the UK.

One task the farmer is faced with in relation to the use of pesticides is that the repeated and exclusive application of an individual pesticidal compound leads in many cases to a rapid selec- tion of harmful fungi, which have developed acquired resistance against the active compound in question. Therefore, there is a need for pest control agents that help prevent or overcome such upcoming resistance.
Septoria tritici is a species of filamentous fungus, an ascomycete in the family Myco- sphaerellaceae. It is a plant pathogen causing septoria leaf blotch, which is currently the most dominant cereal disease. Control of Septoria leaf blotch is becoming more and more difficult for farmers. Reason is the capability of the fungi to develop resistance to widely used powerful fun- gicidal agents.
For example, fungicides containing azole and strobilurine mixtures have been widely and suc- cessfully used in recent years for Septoria control. Strobilurins lost their activity due to the development of the G143A resistance which is mean- while widespread in most cereal growing regions in Europe (Fraaije B. A., Brunett F. J., Clark W. S., Motteram J., Lucas J. A. (2005). Resistance development to Qol inhibitors in populations of Mycosphaerella graminicola in the UK. Modern fungicides and antifungal compounds II, eds Lyr H., Russell P. E., Dehne H-W. Gisi U. Kuck K-H, 14th International Reinhardsbrunn Sympo- sium, BCPC, Alton, UK, pp 63-71 ).
The activity of azole fungicides eroded due to a sensitivity shift of Septoria tritici. In particular, DMI (Demethlyation inhibitor) fungicides from the class of azoles lose their activity due to the development of resistance in different plant pathogenic fungi. The loss of activity is described in various publications such as

DMI fungicides are acting by inhibiting the enzyme lanosterol 14a-demethylase encoded by the CYP51 gene resulting in amino acid alterations. The most important mechanisms leading to reduced DMI sensitivity are based on development of new mutations or on the accumulation of mutations in the CYP51 gene.
Surprisingly, we have found that the application of compounds of formula (I) shows an unex- pected fungicidal activity towards Septoria tritici being resistant against DMI fungicides, in par- ticular, towards Septoria tritici comprising mutations in the CYP51 gene.
Thus, the present invention comprises a method for controlling Septoria tritici that is already resistant to DMI fungicides, in particular, Septoria tritici comprising mutations in the CYP51 gene, on cereals, said method comprising treating the plants, their seed or the soil with a fungi- cidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I)

In one embodiment, the method comprises treating the cereal plants with a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I). In a further embodiment, the method comprises treating cereal seeds with a fungicidally effec- tive amount of a compound of formula (I).
The term cereal plants as used herein comprises wheat and triticale.
Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the present invention relates to a method for controlling Sep- toria tritici that is resistant to DMI fungicides on wheat or triticale, comprising treating the plants, their seed or the soil with a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I).
In a further preferred embodiment, the method comprises treating the wheat or triticale plants with a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I).
In a further preferred embodiment, the method comprises treating wheat and triticale seeds with a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I).
In a more preferred embodiment, the present invention relates to a method for controlling Sep- toria tritici that is resistant to DMI fungicides on wheat, comprising treating the plants, their seed or the soil with a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I).
In a further more preferred embodiment, the method comprises treating the wheat plants with a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I).
In a further more preferred embodiment, the method comprises treating wheat seeds with a fungicidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I).
Treating the plants, their seed or the soil in the method according to present invention may be carried out in spray application, in seed treatment, in drip and drench applications, in-furrow applications, on-seed application and overall soil incorporation, chemigation, i.e. by addition of the active ingredients to the irrigation water, and in hydroponic/mineral systems.
In the context of the present invention, fungicidal action against Septoria tritici means a signifi cant reduction in primary infection by Septoria tritici, compared with the untreated plant, prefer- ably a significant reduction (by a value of between 40-79% compared to an untreated control plant), compared with the untreated plant (100%); more preferably, the primary infection by Septoria tritici is entirely suppressed (by a value of between 80-100% compared to an untreated control plant). The control is for protection of plants which have not yet been infected.
In a preferred embodiment, the above reduction in primary infection by Septoria tritici, compared with the untreated plant is of at least 40%, more preferably at least 60%, even more preferably at least 70%. In another preferred embodiment, the above reduction of at least 40%, more preferably at least 60%, even more preferably at least 70% is achieved by using at most 200 g a.i. / 100kg seed, such as at most 150 g a.i. / 100kg seed or such as at most 140 g a.i. / 100kg seed.
The term "plant propagation material" is to be understood to denote all the generative parts of the plant in particular seeds
Plants and as well as the propagation material of said plants, which can be treated with fungi- cidally effective amount of a compound of formula (I) include all genetically modified plants or transgenic plants, e.g. crops which tolerate the action of herbicides or fungicides or insecticides owing to breeding, including genetic engineering methods, or plants which have modified char- acteristics in comparison with existing plants, which can be generated for example by traditional breeding methods and/or the generation of mutants, or by recombinant procedures.
For example, compounds I in a method according to the present invention can be applied (as seed treatment, spray treatment, in furrow or by any other means) also to plants which have been modified by breeding, mutagenesis or genetic engineering including but not limiting to ag- ricultural biotech products on the market or in development (cf.
http://www.bio.org/speeches/pubs/er/agri_products.asp). 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 modi- fications also include but are not limited to targeted post-transitional modification of protein(s), oligo- or polypeptides e. g. by glycosylation or polymer additions such as prenylated, acetylated or farnesylated moieties or PEG moieties.
For use according to the present invention, a compound of formula (I) can be converted into the customary formulations, for example solutions, emulsions, suspensions, dusts, powders, pastes granules, pressings, capsules, and mixtures thereof. The use form depends on the particular intended purpose; in each case, it should ensure a fine and even distribution of the compound I. The formulations are prepared in a known manner (cf. US 3,060,084, EP-A 707 445 (for liquid concentrates), Browning: "Agglomeration”, Chemical Engineering, Dec. 4, 1967, 147-48, Perry’s Chemical Engineer’s Handbook, 4th Ed., McGraw-Hill, New York, 1963, S. 8-57 und ff. WO 91/13546, US 4,172,714, US 4,144,050, US 3,920,442, US 5,180,587, US 5,232,701 , US 5,208,030, GB 2,095,558, US 3,299,566, Klingman: Weed Control as a Science (J. Wiley & Sons, New York, 1961 ), Hance et al.: Weed Control Handbook (8th Ed., Blackwell Scientific, Oxford, 1989) and Mollet, H. and Grubemann, A.: Formulation technology (Wiley VCH Verlag, Weinheim, 2001 ).
Examples for composition types (see also“Catalogue of pesticide formulation types and interna- tional coding system”, Technical Monograph No. 2, 6th Ed. May 2008, CropLife International) 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), insecti- cidal articles (e. g. LN), as well as gel formulations for the treatment of plant propagation mate- rials, such as seeds (e. g. GF).
The formulations may comprise auxiliaries which are customary in agrochemical formulations. The auxiliaries used depend on the particular application form and active substance, respective- iy-
Examples for suitable auxiliaries are solvents, solid carriers, dispersants or emulsifiers (such as further solubilizers, protective colloids, surfactants and adhesion agents), organic and anorganic thickeners, bactericides, anti-freezing agents, anti-foaming agents, if appropriate colorants and tackifiers or binders (e. g. for seed treatment formulations).
The formulations generally comprise between 0.01 and 95%, preferably between 0.1 and 90%, most preferably between 0.5 and 90%, by weight of active substances.
The active substance concentrations in the ready-to-use preparations can be varied within rela- tively wide ranges. In general, they are from 0.0001 to 10%, preferably from 0.001 to 1 % by weight of compound of formula (I).
Compound of formula (I) may be used together with other pesticides, such as herbicides, fungi- cides, insecticides or bactericides. These agents can be admixed with compound of formula (I) in a weight ratio of 1 :100 to 100:1 , preferably 1 :10 to 10:1 , if appropriate immediately prior to use (tank mix).
Compound of formula (I) may also be used together with fertilizers such as ammonium nitrate, urea, potash, and superphosphate, phytotoxicants and plant growth regulators and safeners. These may be used sequentially or in combination with the above-described compositions, if appropriate also added only immediately prior to use (tank mix). For example, the plant(s) may be sprayed with a composition of this invention either before or after being treated with the ferti- lizers.
Compounds of the formula (I) are applied by treating the fungi or the plants, plant propagation materials (preferably seeds), materials or soil to be protected from fungal attack with a pesti- cidally effective amount of compound of formula (I). The application can be carried out both be- fore and after the infection of the materials, plants or plant propagation materials (preferably seeds) by the pests.
In general, "pesticidally effective amount" means the amount of compound of formula (I) or of compositions comprising compound of formula (I) needed to achieve an observable effect on growth, including the effects of necrosis, death, retardation, prevention, and removal, destruc- tion, or otherwise diminishing the occurrence and activity of the target organism. The pesticidal ly effective amount can vary. A pesticidally effective amount will also vary according to the pre- vailing conditions such as desired pesticidal effect and duration, weather, target species, locus, mode of application, and the like.
In the method of combating harmful fungi depending on the desired effect, the application rates of compound of formula (I) are from 0,1 g/ha to 10000 g/ha, preferably 2 g/ha to 2500 g/ha, more preferably from 5 to 1000 g/ha, most preferably from 10 to 750 g/ha, in particular from 20 to 700 g/ha.
In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the compound of formula (I) is used for the pro- tection of the seed and the seedlings' roots and shoots, preferably the seeds as set forth above.
The compositions comprising compound of formula (I) can be applied to plant propagation ma- terials, particularly seeds, diluted or undiluted. The compositions in question give, after two-to- tenfold dilution, active substance concentrations of from 0.01 to 60% by weight, prefer-ably from 0.1 to 40% by weight, in the ready-to-use preparations. Application can be carried out before or during sowing. Methods for applying agrochemical compounds and compositions thereof, re- spectively, on to plant propagation material, especially seeds, are known in the art, and include dressing, coating, pelleting, dusting and soaking application methods of the propagation materi- al (and also in furrow treatment). In a preferred embodiment, the compounds or the composi- tions 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.
In the treatment of plant propagation material (preferably seed), the application rates of the in- ventive mixture are generally for the formulated product (which usually comprises from10 to 750 g/l of the active(s)) .
The invention is further illustrated, but not limited by the following practical examples:
Microtest:
The active compounds were formulated separately as a stock solution having a concentration of 10000 ppm in dimethyl sulfoxide.
Activity against leaf blotch on wheat caused by Septoria tritici (Septtr)
The spores of Zymoseptoria tritici (formerly known as Septoria tritici) were harvested with a cot- ton swab from an MYA agar plate (1 Og/I malt, 4 g/l yeast extract, 4 g/l glucose, 20 g/l agar) and this is dipped in 3 ml of double concentrated YBG-medium, double concentrated (20 g/l yeast extract, 20 g/l pacto pepton, 40 g/l glycerol) and the suspension is adjusted to a spore density of 1.6x104 /ml. Compounds were diluted from stock solution in (dimethylsulfoxide) DMSO in 7 steps. The compound solutions were diluted 1/5 with sterile deionized water before use. 50 pi of the corn- pound solutions were transferred into empty microplates. The plates were then filled with 50 mI of a spore suspension (spore density adjusted to 1 ,6x104 spores/ml) of each strain.
The antifungal activity was determined by measuring the turbidity of a culture in 96-well micro- plates in the presence of test compounds. Fungal growth was measured by recording the optical density at 405 nm after 7 days. A blank value for each concentration (growth media + compound, but without spores) was substracted from the spore suspension. The relative antifungal activity was calculated by comparison of the effect of the test compounds with the effect of a DMSO control and a standard fungicide.
ICso-values (concentration of test compound resulting in 50% inhibition of fungal growth) were cal- culated from the resulting dose-response for each compound and strain.
