[0071] 2024205281   31 Jul 2024 In the above harmful organisms, mutations within the species is not particularly limited. Namely, the weeds also include any of weeds that have a reduced sensitivity to a specific insecticide, fungicide or herbicide. The reduced sensitivity may be attributed to a mutation at a target site (target site mutations), or may be attributed to any factors other than target site mutation (non-target site mutations). The factors reducing sensitivity by non-target site mutations include metabolic enhancement,   defective absorption, defective transition, and efflux out of the system, etc. A cause of the metabolic enhancement includes an enhanced activity of metabolic enzymes such as cytochrome P450 monooxygenases, aryl acylamidases, esterases and glutathione S-transferase. The efflux out of the system includes the transfer to a vacuole by an ABC transporter. Examples of the reduced sensitivity in weeds caused by the target site mutations include, for example, weeds having one or more of the following amino acid substitutions in ALS gene. Ala122Thr, Ala122Val, Ala122Tyr, Pro197Ser, Pro197His, Pro197Thr,  Pro197Arg,  Pro197Leu,  Pro197Gln,  Pro197Ala, Pro197Ile,  Ala205Val,  Ala205Phe,  Asp376Glu,  Arg377His, Trp574Leu,  Trp574Gly,  Trp574Met,  Ser653Thr,  Ser653Thr, Ser653Asn, Ser635Ile, Gly654Glu, Gly645Asp. Also, examples of the reduced sensitivity in weeds caused by the target site mutations include one or more of the following amino 2024205281   31 Jul 2024 acid substitutions in ACCase gene. Ile1781Leu, Ile1781Val, Ile1781Thr, Trp1999Cys, Trp1999Leu, Ala2004Val, Trp2027Cys, Ile2041Asn, Ile2041Val, Asp2078Gly, Cys2088Arg, Gly2096Ala, Gly2096Ser. Further, examples of the reduced sensitivity in weeds caused by the target site mutations include AGly210 in PPX2L gene and Arg98Leu mutation in PPX1 gene. In particular, the present invention can efficiently control hiyumodoki (tall    waterhemp;     Amaranthus     tuberculatos)     and ohonagaaogeito (Palmer amaranth; Amaranthus palmeri) which have AGly210 mutation in PPX2L gene and butakusa (common ragweed; Ambrosia artemisiaefolia) which has Arg98Leu in PPX1. Moreover, examples of the reduced sensitivity in weeds caused by the target site mutations include amino acid substitutions such as Thr102Ile, Pro106Ser, Pro106Ala and Pro106Leu in EPSP gene. In particular, the present invention can efficiently control glyphosate-resistant ohishiba (goosegrass;    Eleusine   indica),    glyphosate-resistant nezumimugi    (Italian ryegrass;   Lolium multiflorum), glyphosate-resistant bomugi (rigid ryegrass; Lolium rigidum), glyphosate-resistant susukimehishiba (sourgrass; Digitaria insularis), glyphosate-resistant hiyumodoki (tall waterhemp; Amaranthus tuberculatos), and glyphosate-resistant kohimebie (jungle rice; Echinochloa colonum) which have one or both of the amino acid substitutions. Similarly, examples of the reduced sensitivity in weeds caused by the target site 2024205281   31 Jul 2024 include weeds having the increased copy numbers of EPSP gene, and in particular, the present invention can efficiently control    glyphosate-resistant   ohonagaaogeito    (Palmer amaranth;    Amaranthus   palmeri),    glyphosate-resistant hiyumodoki (tall waterhemp; Amaranthus tuberculatos) and glyphosate-resistant hokigi (kochia; Kochia scoparia) which have the mutation.    The present invention can also efficiently control himemukashiyomogi (marestail; Conyza canadensis), oarechinogiku (Guernsey fleabane; Conyza sumatrensis) and arechinogiku (fleabane; Conyza bonariensis) having the resistance to glyphosate related to ABC transporters.

[0086] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0087] First, the evaluation criteria of the effects of controlling harmful arthropods, the effects of controlling plant pathogens, the herbicidal effects, and the phytotoxicity on crops, shown in the following examples, will be described. [Effects of controlling harmful arthropods] In the evaluation of the effects of controlling harmful arthropods, the life and death of insects at the time of investsigation is determined and the controlling rate is acquired using the following equation. Controlling rate (%) = 100 x (1 - T / C) 2024205281   31 Jul 2024 Further, the characters in the equation represent the followings. C: number of insects in an untreated area at the time of observation T: number of insects in a treated area at the time of observation

[0088] [Effects of controlling plant pathogens] In the evaluation of the effects of controlling plant pathogens, when the symptoms caused by the plant pathogens at the time of investigation are compared to those in an untreated area and there is no difference or almost no difference between the symptoms, this case is evaluated as “0”. Further, when there are no symptoms or almost no symptoms caused by the plant pathogens, this case is evaluated as “100”. The effects are evaluated on a scale of 0 to 100.

[0089] [Herbicidal effects] In the evaluation of the herbicidal effects, when the sprouting or growing state of the test weeds at the time of investigation is compared to that of weeds in an untreated area and there is no difference or almost no difference between the states, this case is evaluated as “0”. Further, when the test plants are completely withered or sprouting or 2024205281   31 Jul 2024 growing of plants is completely suppressed, this case is evaluated as “100”. The effects are evaluated on a scale of 0 to 100. [Phytotoxicity on crops] In the evaluation of phytotoxicity on crops, a case where phytotoxicity is not confirmed is evaluated as “harmless”, a case where mild phytotoxicity is confirmed is evaluated as “small”, a case where moderate phytotoxicity is confirmed is evaluated as “medium”, and a case where strong phytotoxicity is confirmed is evaluated as “large”.

[0090] When crop seeds are treated with any combination selected from the combinations listed in Tables 1 to 3 and the cultivation area of the crops is treated with the compound X according to the following method, it is confirmed that the herbicidal effects, the effects of controlling harmful arthropods, and / or the effects of controlling plant pathogens are excellent and the phytotoxicity on the crops is to pose little problem.
