Abstract
A method for suppressing plant damage by nematodes which comprises the concurrent administration, to the locus, soil or seeds of plants in need of such treatment, of (a) a metabolite of the fungus Myrothecium verrucaria and (b) a chemical pesticide, as well as synergistic nematocidal compositions useful therein.
Claims6
A method for suppressing plant damage by nematodes comprising the step of concurrent administration to the locus, soil or seeds of plants in need of said treatment, of a synergistic effective amount of
- (a) a metabolite of the fungus Myrothecium verrucaria applied at a rate of from about 10 to about 30 pounds per acre;
- and,
- oxamyl, applied at the rate of from about 0.35 to about 17.5 kg per acre.
A nematocidal composition comprising:
- a synergistic effective amount of a metabolite of the fungus Myrothecium verrucaria applied at a rate of from about 10 to about 30 pounds per acre in combination with oxamyl applied at the rate of from about 0.35 to about 17.5 kg per acre.
