Abstract

Abstract Method of protecting plants from both fungal organisms and mites in the same treatment in which there is applied to the plant an amount of one or more of selected tricyclopentyl tin and tris(cyclopentylmethyl)tin compounds, which amount is sufficient to provide both antifungal and miticidal protection but is less than a substantially harmful phytotoxic amount. Counter ions in these compounds which are suitable include hydroxy, halo, oxo, thioxo, alkyl- and aryl carboxylate, thiocyanato, diloweralkyldithiocarbamoyl and diethoxyphosphinothioylthio.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 38
Claim 1
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of protecting plants from each of plant pathogenic fungal organisms and mites in the same treatment which comprises: applying to the said plants to be protected an amount of at least one compound of the formula: ##STR17## wherein X is selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, bromo, chloro, fluoro, ##STR18## n is 0 or 1; and Y is a chalcogen selected from O or S; which amount is at least an effective antifungal amount and likewise at least an effective miticidal amount, but less than a substantially phytotoxic amount.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 92 words
A method of protecting plants from each of plant pathogenic fungal organisms and mites in the same treatment which comprises: applying to the said plants to be protected an amount of at least one compound of the formula: ##STR17## wherein X is selected from the group consisting of hydroxyl, bromo, chloro, fluoro, ##STR18## n is 0 or 1; and Y is a chalcogen selected from O or S; which amount is at least an effective antifungal amount and likewise at least an effective miticidal amount, but less than a substantially phytotoxic amount.
