The present invention relates to the field of herbicides, in particular to a herbicide composition of a uracil compound containing a carboxylate fragment and the use thereof.
Chemical control of weed is a most economical and effective means for controlling weeds in farmlands, however, continuously use of a single chemical herbicide or chemical herbicides having a single functional mechanism at a high dosage for a long period of time is likely to cause problems associated with evolved drug resistance and tolerance of weeds. Rational compounding or mixing the herbicide compounds can achieve the following advantages: exhibiting a broad spectrum of weed control, improving weed control effect, and delaying occurrence and development of drug resistance and tolerance of weeds, and thus is one of the most effective means to solve the above problems. Some uracil compounds containing a carboxylate fragment of the following formula with a herbicidal activity are already known from CN114621150A, however, a species of herbicide composition having a high safety, a broad weeding spectrum, being able to generate a synergistic effect, as well as solving the problem of resistant weeds still needs to be developed in production.
Special combinations of the herbicides having different action mechanisms are able to increase the activity of the herbicide composition through the synergistic effect. In such a way, the amount of the herbicide required to control the weeds can be reduced.
Some uracil compounds containing a carboxylate fragment of the following formula with a herbicidal activity are already known from CN114621150A. However, there is no report on the composition of such compounds and other herbicides.

The above preparation i)-xi) can comprise other additives optionally, such as 0.1-1 wt % fungicide, 5-15 wt % antifreeze, 0.1-1 wt % defoamer and 0.1-1 wt % colorant.
The active ingredients A and B are respectively screened and an indoor combined effect of the composition on weeds was evaluated by an indoor test and a field test, to determine a combined effect of the composition on weeds.
Quantitative seeds of Poaceae weeds (echinochloa crusgalli, Digitaria sanguinalis, setaria viridis, Eleusine indica, avena fatua, alopecurus japonicus, alopecurus aequalis, Lolium multiflorum) and broadleaf weeds (eclipta prostrata, rorippa dubia, Abutilon theophrasti, conyza canadensis, veronica persica, myosoton aquaticum, polygonum lapathifolium, galium aparine var. tenerum, alisma plantago-aquatica, geranium carolinianum) were sown in paper cup containing nutrient soil with a diameter of 7 cm, covered with soil for 1 cm after sowing. After pressing and watering, they were cultured in a greenhouse according to a conventional method. Poaceae weeds grew to 3˜4 leaf stage, broad-leaved weeds grew to 4˜6 leaf stage, spraying treatment to both stem and leaf was performed; and pre-seedling soil spray treatment was performed 24 hours after sowing. Following an experimental design dosage, a WP-2000 walking spray tower (spindle speed 96 mm/r, spray height 200 mm, effective spray amplitude of nozzle 350 mm, nozzle flow rate 390 mL/min, nozzle walking speed 210 mm/s) was used for the spray treatment. The experiment was repeated three times. After being treated, a sample material is placed in an operation hall, and after the drug solution is naturally dried out, the sample material is placed in a greenhouse and managed according to the conventional method. A reaction of weeds to the drug agent is observed and recorded, and a regularly visual check of a control effect of the drug agent on weeds was performed after the treatment.
All of original drugs were using acetone as a solvent, being diluted with 0.1 wt % emulsifier of Tween-80 aqueous solution, and being diluted right before using.
When determining a ratio or content of the active ingredient A and the active ingredient B, it should be measured from characteristics of action of both agents and virulence thereof, as well as the main purpose of use of a formula shall also be considered in. In the present study, on a basis of previous pre-test, the dosages of the active ingredient A and the active ingredient B were set, when being used alone and mixed, as shown in the following table. Water containing no agent, but containing the same solvent and emulsifier was used as a blank control.
Repeat 4 times for each treatment, 3 pots per treatment each time and 30 weed seeds were sown for each pot.
Adopting an absolute number survey method, using a blade to cut the whole seedling of surviving weed along soil surface, and weighting the fresh weight of the weed with an analytical balance. For weeds that had died, counting the fresh weight as zero.
Survey period and frequency: 21 days after the treatment, total 1 investigation.
The theoretical fresh weight inhibition rate (E0-Expected Efficacy=X+YX*Y/100) of each treatment combination was calculated by Gowing method, and then compared with the measured inhibition rate (E-Observed Efficacy) to evaluate the combined effect type of both on weeds. When E-E0 value was greater than 10%, it was counted as a synergistic effect, less than −10%, it was counted as an antagonistic effect, and between −10%˜10%, it was counted as an additive effect. According to a plurality of factors including an actual control efficacy, a herbicide characteristic, a formula balance and other factors to determine the best ratio. In the formula, X is the fresh weight inhibition rate of the ingredient A at a dosage of P; Y is the fresh weight inhibition rate of the active ingredient B at a dosage of Q.
The statistical results are shown in Table 1 to Table 44 below, except for those marked clearly as “pre-emergence treatment”, all others are “post-emergence treatment”. The dosages of A single agent and B single agent in the following table are the same as those in the composition of A and B. For example, in Table 1, when the dosage of A+B is 25+12.5 (g/ha) and the ratio of A to B is 2:1, the dosage of A single agent is 25 g/ha, and the dosage of B single agent is 12.5 g/ha.
The bioassay results showed that E-E0≥10 for Poaceae weeds, broadleaf weeds and cyperaceae weeds when such compounds were mixed with a variety of herbicides, which had obvious synergistic effects.
The above-mentioned examples are only preferred examples of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for one skilled in the art, some changes and improvements can be made without deviating from the idea of the present invention, which should be within the protection scope of the present invention.
