Fungicide enhancers effective for treating plants infected with fungal pathogens

摘要

The present invention includes compositions and methods of for treating plants infected with fungal pathogens by contacting an infected plant or plant at risk of infection with a fungicidal composition comprising an fungicide selected from copper compound such as copper octanoate or copper hydroxide, or a triazole fungicide such as myclobutanil, propiconazole, tebuconazole or epoxiconazole, an enhancer selected from apyrase inhibitors, e.g., N-(m-tolyl)-[1, 1′-biphenyl]-4-sulfonamide, S-heptyl 2-oxo-2H-chromene-3-carbothioate, 3-(N-(4-bromophenyl) sulfamoyl)-N-(3-nitrophenyl) benzamide, or (E)-3-methyl-N-(1-(naphthalen-2-yl) ethylidene) benzohydrazide and, optionally, a phytologically-acceptable inert carrier.
