The present invention provides a method for promoting plant growth, which comprises treating a plant with at least one compound selected from a group consisting of a compound represented by the following Formula (1): and an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof, provided that a method for promoting plant growth which comprises treating plants with a compound corresponding to any one of the following (1) to (5) and an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof is excluded: (1) 4-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid, (2) 5-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid, (3) 6-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid, (4) 7-(Trifluoromethyl)benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid, and (5) Benzo[b]thiophene-2-carboxylic acid.

Method for promoting plant growth

The present invention provides a method for promoting plant growth, which comprises treating a plant with a compound represented by the following Formula (1): 

The present invention provides a method for promoting plant growth, which comprises treating a plant with a compound represented by the following Formula (1): provided that a method for promoting plant growth which comprises treating plants with a compound corresponding to the following (1) or an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof are excluded,

Disclosed is a method for promoting the growth of a plant, comprising treating the plant with an effective amount of a compound represented by the following formula (1): wherein any one of R, R, Rand Rrepresents a trifluoromethyl group, and the others represent a hydrogen atom, or an agriculturally acceptable salt thereof. 

Disclosed is a method for promoting the growth of a plant, comprising treating the plant with an effective amount of a compound represented by the following formula (1): wherein any one of R, R, Rand Rrepresents a trifluoromethyl group, the others represent a hydrogen atom, and Rrepresents a methyl group or an ethyl group. 

A noxious arthropod controlling composition comprising a heterocyclic compound represented by the formula (1) [wherein, Aand Arepresent &#x2550;C(R)&#x2014;, nitrogen and so on, Rrepresents a halogen and so on, Rand Rrepresent optionally substituted C1 to C4 chain hydrocarbon group and so on, Rrepresents a hydrogen and so on, n represents 0 or 1] as an active ingredient has an excellent effect for controlling noxious arthropods. 

Noxious arthropod controlling composition and heterocyclic compound

A heterocyclic compound represented by formula (1): 

Heterocyclic compound and its use for control of an arthropod pest

Disclosed is a harmful arthropod control composition comprising, as an active ingredient, a fused heterocyclic compound represented by formula (1) [wherein Aand Aindependently represent a nitrogen atom or the like; Rand Rindependently represent a halogen atom or the like; Rand Rindependently represent a halogen atom or the like; Rand Rindependently represent a linear C1-C6 hydrocarbon group which may be substituted, or the like (provided that both Rand Rcannot represent a hydrogen atom simultaneously); and n represents 0 or 1]. The harmful arthropod control composition has an excellent efficacy to control harmful arthropods. 

Fused heterocyclic compounds, and compositions thereof, for use in arthropod pest control

A fused heterocyclic compound of formula (1): wherein, Aand Arepresent a nitrogen atom or the like, R, R, Rand Rrepresent a halogen atom or the like, Rand Rrepresent a halogen atom or the like, Rrepresents a C1-C6 chain hydrocarbon group optionally substituted with one or more halogen atoms, or the like, Rand Rrepresent a C1-C4 chain hydrocarbon group substituted with one or more halogen atoms, or the like, and n represents 0 or 1,has an excellent noxious arthropod controlling effect. 

Fused heterocyclic compound and use thereof
