Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of pelargonic acid and one or more nonionic surfactants for inhibiting the growth of suckers on plants. It also relates to a composition comprising pelargonic acid and one or more nonionic surfactants in an amount effective for inhibiting the growth of suckers in plants. Preferably, the composition comprises pelargonic acid in an amount between 50 and 90 w/w % and one or more polyoxyethylene glycol sorbitan alkyl esters or sorbitan alkyl esters in an amount between 10 and 50 w/w %, in which 100 w/w % is the total amount of pelargonic acid and one or more polyoxyethylene glycol sorbitan alkyl esters or sorbitan alkyl ester. It also relates to a method of applying pelargonic acid or the composition in an amount effective to inhibit for inhibiting the growth of suckers on plants.

Abstract: The current invention concerns a synergistically effective fungicide composition comprising as component (A) a fungicidally active amount of choline phosphonate and as component (B) at least one additional fungicide selected from the group comprising quinone fungicides, succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors, benzamide fungicides, sulphur fungicides, carboxylic acid amide fungicides, demethylation inhibitor fungicides, phenylamide fungicides, copper fungicides, piperidinyl thiazole isoxazoline fungicides and sugar alcohols, wherein a weight ratio of components (A) and (B) is in a range from 1:1000 to 1000:1. The invention further concerns a kit a use of a fungicide composition according to the invention in an amount effective for controlling one or more types of fungal infections by applying the fungicide composition to the fungal infections.
