## Abstract

A composition comprising at least a pyridylethylbenzamide derivative of general formula (I) (a) and a compound capable of inhibiting the ergosterol biosynthesis (b) in a (a)/(b) weight ratio of from 0.01 to 20. A composition further comprising an additional fungicidal compound. A method for preventively or curatively combating the phytopathogenic fungi of crops by using this composition.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A fungicidal composition comprising:
(a) fluopyram
(N-{2-[3-chloro-5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridinyl]ethyl}-2-trifluoromethylbenzamide);
(b) a compound selected from the group consisting of bitertanol, cyproconazole, difenoconazole, epoxiconazole, hexaconazole, metconazole, myclobutanil, propiconazole, prothioconazole, spiroxamine, tebuconazole, and triadimenol;
in an (a)/(b) weight ratio of from 0.01 to 20; and, optionally,
(c) a compound selected from the group consisting of bitertanol, cyproconazole, difenoconazole, epoxiconazole, fenhexamid, fenpropimorph, hexaconazole, metconazole, myclobutanil, prochloraz, propiconazole, prothioconazole, spiroxamine, tebuconazole, triadimenol, and triforine that is different from (b); in an (a)/(b)/(c) weight ratio of from 1/0.01/0.01 to 1/20/20; the ratios of compound (a) and compound (c) varying independently from each other; provided that if (b) is tebuconazole, (c) is not optional.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

The fungicidal composition of claim 1, wherein compound (b) is selected from the group consisting of prothioconazole, tebuconazole, and triadimenol and compound (c) is selected from the group consisting of prothioconazole, tebuconazole, triadimenol and spiroxamine.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The fungicidal composition of claim 1, wherein compound (b) is one of prothioconazole or tebuconazole, and compound (c) is the other of prothioconazole or tebuconazole.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

A method for preventively or curatively controlling phytopathogenic fungi of crops comprising applying an effective and non-phytotoxic amount of the fungicidal composition of claim 1 to the seed, the plant and/or to the fruit of the plant or to the soil in which the plant is growing or in which it is desired to grow.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A method for preventively or curatively controlling phytopathogenic fungi of crops comprising applying the fungicidal composition of claim 1 to the plant and/or to the fruit of the plant or to the soil in which the plant is growing or in which it is desired to grow at a dose of 30 g/ha.
