Sugar cane cultivation methods using such stem fragments are publicly known (WO 09/000,0398, WO 09/000,399, WO 09/000,400, WO 09/000,401, and WO 09/000,402) and performed under the brand name of Plene (trademark).

The above crops include plants to which resistance to Protoporphyrinogen IX oxidase inhibitors such as flumioxazin; 4-hydroxyphenylpyrubic acid dioxygenase inhibitors such as isoxaflutole; acetolactic acid synthase inhibitors such as imazethapyr and thifensulfuron-methyl; 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphoric acid synthase inhibitors such as glyphosate; glutamine synthetase inhibitors such as glufosinate; auxin type herbicides such as 2,4-D and dicamba; and herbicides such as bromoxinyl are imparted by classical breeding methods or genetic modification technologies.

As examples of crops to which resistance has been imparted by classical breeding methods, corn resistant to imidazolinone type acetolactic acid synthase inhibitory herbicides such as imazethapyr is given and has already been commercially available under the trade name of Clearfield (trademark). Examples of such crops include STS soybeans resistant to sulfonylurea type acetolactic acid synthase inhibitory herbicides such as thifensulfuron-methyl. Similarly, examples of a plant to which resistance to an acetyl CoA carboxylase inhibitor such as triune oxime-based or aryloxyphenoxypropionic acid-based herbicide has been imparted by classical breeding methods include SR corn.

Examples of a plant to which resistance has been imparted by genetic modification technologies include corn, soybeans and cotton resistant to glyphosate, and they have already been commercially available under the trade names of RoundupReady (registered trade mark), Agrisure (registered trademark) GT, Gly-Tol (registered trademark) and the like. Similarly, there are corn, soybeans and cotton resistant to glufosinate by genetic modification technologies, and they have already been commercially available under the trade names of LibertyLink (registered trademark) and the like. There are varieties of corn and soybeans under the trade names of Optimum (registered trademark) GAT (registered trademark), which are resistant to both of glyphosate and acetolactic acid synthase inhibitor. Similarly, there are soybeans resistant to imidazolinone type acetolactic acid synthase inhibitors by genetic modification technologies, and they have been developed under the name of Cultivance. Similarly, there is cotton resistant to bromoxynil by genetic modification technologies, and this has already been commercially available under the trade name of BXN (registered trademark).

Similarly, there has been developed cotton resistant to both of glyphosate and dicamba by genetic modification technologies.

A gene encoding aryloxyalkanoate dioxygenase may be introduced to produce a crop which becomes resistant to phenoxy acid type herbicides such as 2,4-D, MCPA, dichlorpropand mecoprop, and aryloxyphenoxypropionic acid type herbicides such as quizalofop, haloxyfop, fluazifop, diclofop, fenoxaprop, metamifop, cyhalofop and clodinafop (Wright et al. 2010: Proceedings of National Academy of Science. 107 (47): 20240-20245). Cultivars of soybean and cotton, which show the resistance to 2,4-D, have been developed under the brand of Enlist.

A gene encoding a 4-hydroxyphenyl pyruvic acid dioxygenase (hereinafter referred to as HPPD) inhibitor, the gene having resistance to HPPD, may be introduced to create a plant resistant to a HPPD inhibitor (US2004/0058427). A gene capable of synthesizing homogentisic acid which is a product of HPPD in a separate metabolic pathway even if HPPD is inhibited by a HPPD inhibitor is introduced, with the result that a plant having resistance to the HPPD inhibitor can be created (WO02/036787). A gene expressing excess HPPD may be introduced to produce HPPD in such an amount as not to adversely affect the growth of plants even in the presence of a HPPD inhibitor, with the result that a plant having resistance to the HPPD inhibitor can be created (WO96/38567). Besides introduction of the gene expressing excess HPPD, a gene encoding prephenate dehydrogenase is introduced in order to increase the yield of p-hydroxyphenyl pyruvic acid which is a substrate of HPPD to create a plant having resistance to the HPFD inhibitor (Rippert P et. al., 2004 Engineering plant shikimate pathway for production of tocotrienol and improving herbicide resistance. Plant Physiol. 134: 92-100).

The hybrid toxins are created by new combinations of domains having different proteins by using genetic modification technologies. As the partially defective toxins, Cry1Ab in which part of the amino acid sequences is missing is known. In the modified toxin, one or more of amino acids of a natural type toxin is replaced. Examples of these toxins and genetically modified plants capable of synthesizing these toxins are described in, for example, EP-A-0374753, WO 93/07278, WO 95/34656, EP-A-0427529, EP-A-451878, and WO 03/052073.

The above crops include those to which the ability to produce antipathogenic substances having a selective effect is imparted using genetic modification technologies. For example, PR proteins are known as an example of the antipathogenic substance (PRPs, EP-A-0392225). Such antipathogenic substances and genetically modified plants producing these antipathogenic substances are described in, for example, EP-A-0392225, WO 95/33818, and EP-A-0353191.

Examples of a method for applying effective components to the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments include a method in which the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments are powder-coated with a preparation containing effective components; a method in which the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments are dipped in a preparation containing effective components; a method in which a preparation containing effective components is sprayed on the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments; and a method in which the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments are coated with a carrier containing effective components.

The present invention includes the step of treating a crop field with one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin before sowing or planting, at the same time of sowing or planting, or after sowing or planting the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments which are treated with the compounds of the group B.

The 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin, 2^ndcrystal of flumioxazin, 3^rdcrystal of flumioxazin, 4^thcrystal of flumioxazin, 5^thcrystal of flumioxazin, 6^thcrystal of flumioxazin and 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin (hereinafter, referred to as 1^stcrystal of flumioxaxin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxaxin) used in the method of the present invention can be produced by the methods disclosed in Example and modified methods thereof.

The 1^stcrystal of flumioxaxin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxaxin in the present invention can be obtained, for example, by conducting the following steps.

First, a starting material is dissolved in an organic solvent to obtain a solution which contains flumioxazin at the concentration generally in the range of 2 mg to 200 mg, preferably in the range of 5 mg to 120 mg, per ml of the solvent, and setting the temperature of the obtained solution generally within the range of 40° C. to 80° C., preferably within the range of 50° C. to 75° C.

Then, the heated solution may be heated to rapidly volatilizing its solvent, for example by dropping the solution onto the heated glass plate or the like to form and isolate crystals.

The heated solvent is preferably cooled to its temperature generally from about 0° C. to less than 25° C., preferably from about 10° C. to 25° C. to form a crystal. Preferably the step of cooling the heated solution is gradually conducted, specifically by lowering the solution preferably at 5° C. to 15° C. per hour, more preferably at around 10° C. per hour. Water or other solvent at the same temperature as that of the heated solution can be added to the solution before cooling for easily forming crystals. After cooling the solution, the cooled solution is maintained at the lowered temperature to form a crystal. The time of maintenance for the solution depends on the scale, temperature or other conditions of the solution, which can be arbitrarily determined.

The crystals of the present invention can be collected in a known manner, for example, by filtration, by concentration, by centrifugation or by decantation. The crystal may be washed with an appropriate solvent, if necessary. The crystal may be subjected to the method comprising the above-mentioned steps or slurry filtration for improving its purity or quality.

It is possible to use, as the starting material for producing the crystal of the present invention, a solution or a suspension of flumioxazin, or a mixture containing flumioxazin. It is also possible to use a solution or a suspension of a synthetic reaction crude product containing flumioxazin.

The organic solvent to be used for the crystallization includes alcohols such as methanol, 2-methoxyethanol, 2-ethoxyethanol, ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, acetone, 1,4-dioxane, halogenated hydrocarbons such as chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane or chlorobenzene, and aromatic hydrocarbons such as xylene or toluene.

It is also possible to use seed crystals in crystallization for producing the crystal of the present invention. In that case, it is preferred to use crystals having a crystal form to be prepared. The amount of seed crystals to be added is preferably from 0.0005 parts by weight to 0.02 parts by weight, and more preferably from 0.001 part by weight to 0.01 part by weight, based on 1 part by weight of flumioxazin. The crystals of the present invention may be a solvate or a non-solvate.

When a specific hydrophilic organic solvent is used as a crystallization solvent, the obtained crystals are sometimes crystals of a solvate. The crystals of a non-solvate can be obtained by heating to dry the crystals of a solvate under reduced pressure.

The degree of drying of the crystals can be determined by analytical means such as gas chromatography.

It is also possible to determine the purity of the crystal form of the crystal by subjecting the crystal to the powder X-ray diffraction measurement such as CuKα rays diffraction analysis, followed by analyzing the obtained diffraction pattern about the presence or absence of diffraction peaks peculiar to crystal of a solvate, and the height of the peaks.

The crystal of the present invention can be produced with high purity, can remain unchanged in crystal form even after a heat treating step for formulation, can also exhibit physical and chemical properties which are more advantageous for the production of a formulation, and can maintain such properties even after being stored for a long period.

In the step of treating a field with the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin, the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin is usually mixed with a carrier such as a solid carrier or liquid carrier and further added with auxiliaries for preparations such as surfactants according to the need to be formulated into preparations.

Examples of a method for applying the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazinto a field include a method in which the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin is sprayed on field soil and a method in which the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin is sprayed on weeds after the weeds are grown.

The amount of the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin used in the step of applying the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin to a field is usually 5 to 5000 g, preferably 10 to 1000 g, and more preferably 20 to 500 g per 10000 m². In this case, adjuvants may be added to the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin to apply the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin to the field.

In the present invention, the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments treated with the compounds of the group B are sowed or planted in a field by a usual method. In the method of controlling pests according to the present invention, a crop field may be treated with the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin before sowing or planting, at the same time of sowing or planting, or after sowing or planting the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments.

When a crop field is treated with the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin before sowing or planting the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments, the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin is applied before 50 days to immediately before sowing or planting, preferably before 30 days to immediately before sowing or planting, more preferably before 20 days to immediately before sowing or planting, and even more preferably before 10 days to immediately before sowing or planting.

When a crop field is treated with the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin after sowing or planting the crop seeds or vegetative organs such as tubers, bulbs, or stem fragments, the one or more crystals selected from the group consisting of 1^stcrystal of flumioxazin to 7^thcrystal of flumioxazin is applied immediately after to 50 days after sowing or planting.

Test Examples

First, given are the standard of evaluation of a pest control effect (harmful arthropod control effect, plant pathogen control effect, and herbicidal effect) and that of crop injuries, which will be shown in examples hereinafter.

[Harmful Arthropod Control Effect]

In the evaluation of the harmful arthropod control effect, each insect at the time of investigation is examined by discriminating whether the insect is alive or dead to calculate a controlling value by the following equation.

Controlling value (%)=100×(1−T/C)

wherein C represents the number of insects to be observed in an untreated area, and

T represents the number of insects to be observed in a treated area

[Plant Pathogen Control Effect]

In the evaluation of the plant pathogen control effect, the symptom of each test plant in a treated area is compared with that in an untreated area and when there is no or almost no difference in symptom between the treated area and the untreated area at the time of investigation, the case is given “0”, and when no or almost no change in symptom caused by plant pathogens is observed at the time of investigation, the case is given “100”, thereby grading each sample between 0 to 100.

[Herbicidal Effect and Crop Injuries]

In the evaluation of the herbicidal effect, the germination or growth condition of each test weed in a treated area is compared with that in an untreated area and when there is no or almost no difference in germination or growth condition between the treated area and the untreated area at the time of investigation, the case is given “0”, and when the test plant perfectly withers and dies, or the germination or growth of the plant is perfectly restricted at the time of investigation, the case is given “100”, thereby grading each sample between 0 to 100.

In the evaluation of crop injuries, the case where almost no crop injury is observed is expressed as “harmless”, the case where mild crop injuries are observed is expressed as “small”, the case where moderate crop injuries are observed is expressed as “middle”, and the case where severe crop injuries are observed is expressed as “large”.
