Abstract
Novel fungicidal compositions for the treatment of phytopathogenic diseases of crop plants and against infestation on propagation stock of plants or on other vegetable material, especially phytopathogenic fungi, and to a method of combating phytopathogenic diseases on crop plants or in post-harvest storage and for seed dressing. The invention relates in particular to the control or prevention of diseases in the post-harvest storage period of harvested fruits. It has now been found that the use of a) 4-(2,2-difluoro-1,3-benzodioxol-7-yl)pyrrole-3-carbonitrile (“fludioxonil”) (The Pesticide Manual, 11th. edition, 1997, 334), component I in association with b) either 2-(thiazol-4-yl)benzimidazol, component IIA (“thiabendazole”) (The Pesticide Manual, 11th. edition, 1997, 701); or 1-(&bgr;-allyloxy-2,4-dichlorophenylethyl)imidazole, component IIB (“imizalil”) (The Pesticide Manual, 11th. edition, 1997, 410) is particularly effective in combating or preventing fungal diseases of crop plants. These combinations exhibit synergistic fungicidal activity.
