The present invention relates to novel heteroaryl-triazole and heteroaryl-tetrazole compounds of the general formula (I), in which the structural elements Y, Q, Q, R, R, R, R, Rand Rhave the meaning given in the description, to formulations and compositions comprising such compounds and for their use in the control of animal pests including arthropods and insects in plant protection and to their use for control of ectoparasites on animals.

Heteroaryl-triazole and heteroaryl-tetrazole compounds as pesticides

The present invention relates to novel heteroaryl-triazole and heteroaryl-tetrazole compounds of the general formula (I), in which the structural elements Y, Q, Q, R, R, R, Rand Rhave the meaning given in the description, to formulations and compositions comprising such compounds and for their use in the control of animal pests including arthropods and insects in plant protection and to their use for control of ectoparasites on animals.

In the present invention, HPPD polypeptides and plants containing them showing a full tolerance against one or more HPPD inhibitor herbicides belonging to various chemical classes are described. A set of mutant HPPD polypeptides have been designed which have either no or only a significantly reduced affinity to HPPD inhibitor herbicides and, at the same time, the rate of dissociation of the HPPD inhibitors of the mutant HPPD polypeptide is increased to such an extent that the HPPD inhibitors no longer act as slow-binding or slow, tight-binding inhibitors but, instead of this, have become fully reversible inhibitors. In particular, isolated polynucleotides encoding mutant HPPD polypeptides conferring tolerance to HPPD inhibitor herbicides belonging to various chemical classes are provided. Additionally, amino acid sequences corresponding to the polynucleotides are encompassed.

HPPD variants and methods of use

A method for conferring tolerance to a 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) inhibitor herbicide in a plant includes reducing expression of at least one HPPD enzyme in the plant.
