FIELD OF DISCLOSURE The description includes protected compositions comprising a pyridine carboxylate herbicide and a cloquintocet protectant, as well as methods for controlling unwanted vegetation by using these. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Several recurring problems in agriculture involve controlling the growth of unwanted vegetation, which can negatively impact the growth of desired vegetation. To aid in the control of unwanted vegetation, researchers have developed a variety of chemicals and chemical formulations effective in controlling such unwanted growth. In some cases, while a herbicide may be effective in controlling unwanted vegetation, it can also have a phytotoxic effect on a crop, causing damage or even destroying it. Therefore, there is a need for new combination herbicides that limit the phytotoxicity of the herbicide active ingredient to the desired crops.

Definitions The terms used herein shall have their usual meaning in the art unless otherwise specified. The singular forms 'dn / una' and 'el / la' include plural references unless otherwise indicated. This description also covers other modalities comprising, consisting of, and essentially consisting of the modalities or elements presented herein, whether explicitly or implicitly. To the extent that the term 'or' is used (e.g., A or B), it is intended to mean A or B or both. If this description is intended to mean only A or B but not both, then the expression 'only A or B but not both' shall be used. Therefore, the use of the term 'Lo' herein is inclusive, not exclusive. The chemical groups mentioned when defining variable positions within the general formulas described herein (e.g., the term “alkyl”) are collective terms for the individual substituents included by the chemical group. The affix Cn-Cm next to a group or group indicates, in each case, the possible number of carbon atoms in the following group or group. As used in this description, the terms herbicide and herbicide active ingredient may be understood to include an active ingredient that kills, controls, or otherwise adversely modifies the growth of vegetation, particularly unwanted vegetation such as weed species, when applied in an adequate amount. As used in the present description, the term “herbicide effect” may be understood to include an adverse modifying effect of an active ingredient on vegetation, which includes, for example, a deviation[p_glg¿QC09gii^^ntqypt\[d^5¡gpi?ppi|pi 5 Page 5 of 67 natural!, elimination, regulation, desiccation, growth inhibition, growth reduction, and retardation. The term “herbicidal activity” generally refers to the herbicidal effects of an active ingredient.

Cloquintocet In addition to the pyridine carboxylate herbicide, the compositions and methods described herein may include a quinolinoxyacetate protectant or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof. Herbicide protectants are molecules used in combination with herbicides to make them safer, i.e., to reduce the herbicidal effect of the herbicide on crop plants and to improve selectivity between the crops and the unwanted vegetation targeted by the herbicide. Herbicide protectants may be used to pretreat crop seeds before planting. Protectants may also be sprayed onto plants as a mixture with the herbicide, or separately and sequentially with the herbicide. Quinolinoxyacetate shields are known in the art and are described, for example, in U.S. Patent No. 4,902,340 and U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2014 / 0031224, descriptions of which are incorporated herein by reference. The shields of qróbti0£i^á2matn-ÁKluyá^P#WI 15 Page 15 of 67 For example, cloquintocet and its derivatives. Cloquintocet is a quinoline compound that has the following chemical structure: This form of cloquintocet can also be called “cloquintocet-acid* In some respects, the protectant may comprise an agriculturally acceptable salt of cloquintocet. Agriculturally acceptable salts of cloquintocet include, for example, sodium, potassium, ammonium, monoethanolammonium, diethanolammonium, triethanolammonium, monoisopropanommonium, diisopropanommonium, triisopropanommonium, choline, β-,β-dimethylethanolammonium, diethylammonium, dimethylammonium, trimethylammonium, triethylammonium, and isopropanommonium salts. In some respects, the protectant may comprise an agriculturally acceptable ester of cloquintocet. Agriculturally acceptable esters of cloquintocet include, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, or methylhexyl (also known as mexyl) cloquintocet esters. In some respects, the protectant comprises cloquintocetmexyl, the structure of which is shown below. In some respects, the protectant may comprise cloquintocet acid, an agriculturally acceptable salt of cloquintocet, an agriculturally acceptable ester of cloquintocet, or mixtures thereof. Cloquintocet can be a protectant when applied in combination with herbicides and can be used to reduce phytotoxicity in crops such as wheat, barley, triticale, rye, teff, oats, corn, sorghum, rice, millet, canola / oilseed, sunflower, and sugar beet. Page 16 of 67 of pastures. In some aspects, unwanted vegetation is found in broadleaf crops. In some aspects, unwanted vegetation is found in canola, flax, sunflower, soybeans, or cotton. Cloquintocet or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof may be used in a quantity sufficient to induce a protective effect. In some cases, cloquintocet or an agriculturally acceptable ester or salt thereof is applied to vegetation or an area adjacent to vegetation, or applied to soil or water in an amount of 1 g of active ingredient per hectare (ai / ha) or greater, such as 2 g ai / ha or greater, 3 g ai / ha or greater, 4 g ai / ha or greater.5 g ai / ha o mayor 6 g ai / ha o mayor, 7 g ai / ha o mayor, 8 g ai / ha o mayor, 9 g ai / ha o mayor, 10 g ai / ha o mayor, 11 g ai / ha o mayor, 12 g ai / ha o mayor, 13 g ai / ha o mayor, 14 g ai / ha o mayor, 15 g ai / ha o mayor, 16 g ai / ha o mayor, 17 g ai / ha o mayor, 13 g ai / ha o mayor, 19 g ai / ha o mayor, 20 g ai / ha o mayor, 22 g ai / ha o mayor, 24 g ai / ha o mayor, 25 g ai / ha o mayor, 26 g ai / ha o mayor, 28 g ai / ha o mayor, 30 g ai / ha o mayor, 32 g ai / ha o mayor, 34 g ai / ha o mayor, 35 g ai / ha o mayor, 36 g ai / ha o mayor, 38 g ai / ha o mayor, 40 g ai / ha o mayor, 42.5 g ai / ha o mayor, 45 g ai / ha o mayor, 47.5 g ai / ha o mayor, 50 g ai / ha o mayor, 52.5 g ai / ha o mayor, 55 g ai / ha o mayor, 57.5 g ai / ha o mayor, 60 g ai / ha o mayor, 65 g ai / ha o mayor, 70 g ai / ha o mayor, 75 g ai / ha o mayor, SO g ai / ha o mayor, 85 g ai / ha o mayor, 90 g ai / ha o mayor, 95 g ai / ha o mayor, 100 g ai / ha o mayor, 110 g ai / ha o mayor, 120 g ai / ha o mayor, 130 g ai / ha o mayor. 140 g aí / ha o mayor, 150 g aí / ha o mayor.160 g ai / ha o mayor, 170 g ai / ha o mayor, 180 g ai / ha o mayor, 190 g ai / ha o mayor, 200 g ai / ha o mayor, 210 g ai / ha o mayor, 220 g ai / ha o mayor. 230 g ai / ha o mayor. 240 g ai / ha o mayor, 250 g ai / ha o mayor, 260 g ai / ha o mayor, 270 g ai / ha o mayor, 230 g ai / ha o mayor, o 290 g ai / ha o mayor; en una cantidad de 300 g ai / ha o menor, tal como 290 g ai / ha o menor, 280 g ai / ha o menor, 270 g ai / ha o menor, 260 ga / ha o menor, 250 g ai / ha o menor, 240 g ai / ha □ menor, 230 g ai / ha o menor, 220 g ai / ha o menor, 210 g ai / ha o menor, 200 g ai / ha o menor, 190 g ai / ha o menor, 180 g ai / ha o menor. 170 g ai / ha o menor, 160 g ai / ha o menor, 150 g ai / ha o menor. 140 g ai / ha o menor, 130 g aí / ha o menor, 120 ^-aiffie-ayMgaójt.-AIFN-^TáPSi^Bl.

IV. Protected Compositions A protected composition comprising (a) a pyridine carboxylate herbicide or an agriculturally acceptable N-oxide, salt or ester thereof may be mixed with or applied in combination with (b) a protectant comprising cloquintocet or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof. In some respects, (a) and (b) are used in sufficient quantity to induce an unexpectedly enhanced herbicidal effect (e.g., greater damage or injury to unwanted vegetation) while still exhibiting good crop compatibility (e.g., no greater crop damage or minimal increase in crop damage or injury) compared to the individual application of herbicide compounds (a) or (b). In some respects, the damage or injury to unwanted vegetation caused by the protected compositions and methods described herein is assessed using a scale of 0% to 100%, compared to untreated control vegetation, where 0% indicates no damage to unwanted vegetation. Page 18 of 67 Complete destruction of unwanted vegetation. Similarly, in some respects, the damage or injury to crops caused by the protected compositions and methods described herein is assessed using a scale of 0% to 100%, compared to control crops treated only with the herbicide or protectant, where 0% indicates no damage to the crop and 100% indicates complete destruction of the crop. In some respects, the combined action of (a) the herbicide pyridine carboxylate or an agriculturally acceptable N-oxide, salt, or ester thereof and (b) the protectant cloquintocet or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof results in an unexpectedly enhanced herbicidal effect against unwanted vegetation, even at application rates below those normally used for the herbicide to have a herbicidal effect on its own. In some respects, the compositions and methods described herein may be used, depending on the individual components, at lower application rates to achieve a herbicidal effect comparable to the effect produced by the individual components at normal application rates.In some respects, the combined action of (a) the herbicide pyridine carboxylate or an agriculturally acceptable N-oxide, salt, or ester thereof and (b) the protectant cloquintocet or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof results in an unexpected protective effect for the desired crops against crop damage that may be caused by the herbicide alone. In some respects, the weight ratio of (a) the pyridine carboxylate herbicide or an agriculturally acceptable N-oxide, salt, or ester thereof (in g ae / ha) to (b) the cloquintocet protectant or an agriculturally acceptable salt or ester thereof (in g ai / ha) may be 1:5 or greater, such as 1:4.75 or greater, 1:4.5 or greater, 1:4.25 or greater, 1:4 or greater, 1:3.75 or greater, 1:3.5 or greater, 1:3.25 or greater, 1:3 or greater, 1:2.75 or greater, 1:2.5 or greater, 1:2.25 or greater, 1:2 or greater, 1:1.9 or greater, 1:1.5 or greater. 1:1.7 or greater, 1:1.6 or greater, 1:1.5 or greater, 1:1.4 or greater, 1:1.3 or greater, 1:1.2 or greater, 1:1.1 or greater, 1:1 or greater, 1.1:1 or greater, 1.2:1 or greater, 1.3:1 or greater«,Fl242l)4»7W®tJ-^&N-AMP#fl3íí?l 19 Page 19 of 67 1.6:1 or higher, 1.7:1 or higher, 1.8:1 or higher, 1.9:1 or higher, 2:1 or higher, 2.25:1 or higher, 2.5:1 or higher, 2.75:1 or higher, 3:1 or higher, 3.25:1 or higher, 3.5:1 or higher, 3.75:1 or higher, 4:1 or higher, 4.25:1 or higher, 4.5:1 or higher, 4.75:1 or higher, 5:1 or higher, 6:1 or higher, 7:1 or higher, 8:1 or higher, 9:1 or higher, 10:1 or higher, 11:1 or higher, 12:1 or higher, 13:1 or higher, 14:1 or higher, 15:1 or higher, 16:1 or higher, 17:1 or greater, 18:1 or greater, 19:1 or higher, 20:1 or higher, 25:1 or higher, 30:1 or higher, 35:1 or higher, 40:1 or higher The weight ratio of {a} to (b) can be 65:1 or less, such as 60:1 or less, 55:1 or less, 50:1 or less, 45:1 or less, 40:1 or less, 35:1 or less, 30:1 or less, 25:1 or less, 20:1 or less, 19:1 or less, 18:1 or less, 17:1 or less, 16:1 or less, 15:1 or less, 14:1 or less, 13:1 or less, 12:1 or less, 11:1 or less, 10:1 or less, 9:1 or less, 8:1 or less, 7:1 or less, 6:1 or less, or 5:1 or less. 4.75:1 or less, 4.5:1 or less, 4.25:1 or less, 4:1 or less, 3.75:1 or less, 3.5:1 or less, 3.25:1 or less, 3:1 or less. 2.75:1 or less, 2.5:1 or less, 2.25:1 or less, 2:1 or less, 1.9:1 or less, 1.8:1 or less, 1.7:1 or less, 1.6:1 or less, 1.5:1 or less, 1.4:1 or less, 1.3:1 or less, 1.2:1 or less, 1.1:1 or less, 1:1 or less, 1:1.1 or less, 1:1.2 or less, 1:1.3 or less, 1:1.4 or less, 1:1.5 or less, 1:1.6 or less, 1:1.7 or less, 1:1.8 or less, 1:1.9 or less, 1:2 or less, 1:2.25 or less, 1:2.5 or less, 1:2.75 or less, 1:3 or less, 1:3.25 or less, 1:3.5 or less, 1:3.75 or less, 1:4 or less, 1:4.25 or less, 1:4.5 or less, or 1:4.75 or less; or the weight ratio of {a) to (b) may vary from any of the minimum ratios to any of the maximum ratios provided above, such as from 1:5 to 65:1, from 1:2 to 25:1, from 1:1 to 15:1, from 1:3 to 4:1, or from 1:1.5 to 10:1.

Examples of herbicides that may exhibit tolerant or resistant behavior include, but are not limited to, biotypes with resistance or tolerance to multiple herbicides, biotypes with resistance or tolerance to multiple chemical classes, biotypes with resistance or tolerance to multiple herbicide modes of action, and biotypes with multiple tolerance or resistance mechanisms (e.g., targeted resistance or metabolic resistance). For illustrative purposes only, the following are examples of certain aspects of this disclosure. Parts and percentages are by weight unless otherwise stated. Examples Greenhouse trials - Methodology - Evaluation of herbicide protection after emergence in crops Seeds of the test plant species Head3Oe0172ü®(MeAelIá-d^D©WI were planted Page 38 of 67 % v / v (volume / volume) of PRO-MIX® BX planting mix (Premier Tech Horticulture, Quakertown, PA, USA) and PROFILE® GREENS GRADE™ (Profile Products LLC, Buffalo Grove, IL, USA), which typically has a pH of 5.2 to 6.2 and an organic matter content of at least 50 percent, in plastic pots with a surface area of ​​103.2 square centimeters (cm2). When necessary to ensure good germination and healthy plants, fungicide and / or other chemical or physical treatment was applied. The plants were grown for 7–36 days (d) in a greenhouse with a photoperiod of approximately 14 hours (h) maintained at approximately 23°C during the day and 22°C at night. Nutrients and water were added regularly, and supplemental lighting was provided from above with 1000-watt metal halide lamps as needed. The plants were used for testing when they reached the second or third true leaf stage.Emulsifiable concentrates of each pyridine carboxylate herbicide (Compound A or Compound B) were prepared at 100 grams of acid equivalent per liter (g ae / l). An aliquot of each emulsifiable concentrate was placed in a 25 ml glass vial and diluted with an aqueous mixture of 1.25% (v / v) esterified rapeseed oil ACTIROB® B (Bayer Crop Science, Research Triangle Park, NC, USA) or MSO® Concentrate with soybean oil met I a do Le ci-Tech® (Loveland Products, Loveland, CO, USA) to obtain concentrated stock solutions at the highest application rate for each herbicide, based on an application volume of 12 milliliters (ml) at a rate of 187 liters per hectare (L / ha). The concentrated stock solutions were diluted additionally with an aqueous mixture of 1.25% v / v of ACTIROB® B Concentrate or MSO® with LECI-TECH® to obtain stock solutions at reduced application rates for each herbicide.Spray solutions of two herbicide combinations (Compound A or Compound B plus protectant) were prepared by adding weighted amounts or aliquots of the protectant to stock solutions of Compound A or Compound B to form 12 ml spray solutions in bidirectional combinations. IF-2020-07208301-APN-ANP#INPI. Page 39 of 67 Spray solutions were applied to plant material using a Mandel trail overhead sprayer equipped with 8002E nozzles calibrated to deliver 187 L / ha over an application area of ​​0.503 square meters (m2) at a spray height of 18 inches (43 centimeters (cm)) above the average plant canopy. Control plants were similarly sprayed with the solvent blank. All herbicide (component a) application rates are given as “gae / ha” and all protectant (component b) application rates are given as “gai / ha”. The treated and control plants were placed in a greenhouse, as described above, and irrigated by subirrigation to avoid washing off the test compounds. After 20–22 days, the condition of the test plants was visually assessed relative to that of the control plants and scored on a scale of 0 to 100 percent, where 0 corresponds to no damage and 100 corresponds to total death. Details of the protected compositions and crops analyzed are specified in the following examples. Example 1 A protected composition comprising cloquintocet acid (CQC-a) and compound A was evaluated in spring wheat (TRZAS), winter wheat (TRZAW), durum wheat (TRZDU), spring barley (HORVS), winter barley (HORVW), and common oats (AVESA), and the phytotoxicity of the protected composition was measured in each crop. In addition, the efficacy of the protected compositions was measured against unwanted vegetation, including field chamomile (ANTAR, Anthemis atvensis), winter rapeseed (BRSNW, Brassica napas), false chamomile (MATIN, Matricaria inodora), and wild mustard (SINAR, Sinapis arvensis).
