Abstract: Methods for controlling and/or treating of phytopathogenic fungi causing soybean rust infections in plants include applying a fungicidally effective amount of a composition to the plants, and/or seeds of the plants, or soil in which the plants are growing, or soil in which the plants are desired to grow. The composition includes zoxamide, optionally in combination with one or more additional active ingredients selected from the group consisting of strobilurins and/or triazole compounds. The phytopathogenic fungi are selected from P. pachyrhizi or P. meibomiae. The zoxamide is applied in an amount of about 10 g/ha to about 2000 g/ha.

Abstract: Methods of controlling, preventing, and/or treating of phytopathogenic fungi causing soybean rust include use of zoxamide as an active agent against soybean rust and agricultural compositions thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the use of silthiofam for the treatment of soybean rust and agricultural compositions thereof. The invention further relates to a method of controlling, preventing and/or treating of phytopathogenic fungi causing soybean rust.

Abstract: S-abscisic acid is used for promoting fruit set and/or for producing parthenocarpic fruits in useful plants. S-abscisic acid is also used as a growth inhibitor in useful plants. Methods are provided for treating useful plants with S-abscisic acid for these purposes.

Abstract: This invention relates to the use of a composition in low doses containing single L-amino acids, including their precursors and biologically still active metabolites, to influence the life processes of plants, such as their growth, whereby the total amount of single L-amino acids when applying the composition is at least 0.5 g/ha and at most 250 g/ha, and wherein the L-amino acids are selected from the group of glutamine, asparagine, aspartic acid, histidine, lysine, and combinations thereof with each other and/or with arginine and/or with glutamic acid.

Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a composition comprising S-abscisic acid or a salt thereof and another growth inhibiting active substance during a period of vegetative growth for the increase of the yield of agricultural and horticultural crops, annual as well as perennial, monocot as well as dicot crops, whereby the S-abscisic acid or the salt thereof is dosed in an amount corresponding to at most 40 g/hectare.

Abstract: Controlling insects of the superfamily of the Psylloidea in horticultural and/or agricultural crops, by using bicarbonate and carbonate salts.

Abstract: A method and compound are provided to avoid the cracking of fruit and vegetable fruits by formulating an Indole-Derivative containing compound and applying it to a plant to reduce cracking of fruits and vegetables. The anti-cracking formulation of the Indole-Derivative can include: Tryptophane, Auxin, an Auxin Derivative, or a Napthalene, and can be applied to any fruit or vegetable plant, including: tomatoes, stone fruit, pome fruit, cherries or grapes. The anti-cracking formulation of the Indol-Derivative is preferably applied to the plant after a flowering (bloom) of the plant and prior to harvest.

Abstract: New plant strengthening agents based on phytohormones for application in plant husbandry or arable cropping, preferably in fruit or wine growing. The invention relates to the use of a compound selected from the group gibberellin A4 (GA4), gibberellin A7 (GA7), gibberellin A3 (GA3), 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), N6-benzyladenine (BA) and S-abscisic acid (ABA), or of a mixture of at least two compounds selected from said group, as a plant strengthening agent, to formulations containing said active substances, as well as to a process for strengthening higher plants which is characterized in that a phytoactive amount of at least one of said compounds is applied to said higher plants, preferably to the epigeal parts thereof. Application in plant husbandry or arable cropping, preferably in fruit or wine growing, is preferred.
