[0005] The Pesticide Manual 19th Edition (British Crop Production Council, 2021) Compendium of Pesticide Common Names "Index of New ISO Common Names" [Retrieved August 8, 2025], Internet <URL: http: / / www.alanwood.net / pesticides / index_new_frame.html> A novel class of insecticidal alkylsulfones are potent inhibitors of vesicular acetylcholine transport "Pesticide Biochemistry and Physiology Volume 201, May 2024, [Retrieved August 8, 2024], Internet <URL: https: / / www.sciencedirect.com / science / article / abs / pii / S0048357524000877>
[0006] Various pesticides are used in the cultivation of agricultural crops. However, there are cases where effective control is not possible due to differences in effectiveness depending on the type, growth stage, and habitat characteristics of the existing target pests, the development of resistance, limitations on the amount used, and the number of times of control, etc., and new means and methods for efficiently controlling pests that are impossible or difficult to control are required. Under these circumstances, the object of the present invention is to provide a pesticide composition having excellent control effects against various pests.
[0007] As a result of extensive research to solve the above problems, the present inventors discovered that various pests can be effectively controlled by using a vesicular acetylcholine transporter inhibitor as a first active ingredient in combination with an IBR agent (an insect behavior regulator) as a second active ingredient, and thus completed the present invention.
[0008] That is, the present invention provides: [1] a pest control composition containing a vesicular acetylcholine transporter inhibitor as a first active ingredient and an IBR-based agent (insect behavior control agent) as a second active ingredient; [2] the pest control composition according to [1], wherein the first active ingredient is oxazosulfyl (salt) or cybenzoxasulfyl (salt), and the second active ingredient is thiapyrachlor, indazapyroxamet (salt), pymetrozine (salt), pyrifluquinazon (salt), a compound represented by formula (1) (salt), or a compound represented by formula (2) (salt); [3] The pesticide composition according to [2], wherein the first active ingredient is oxazosulfyl (salt) or cybenzoxasulfyl (salt), and the second active ingredient is thiapyrachlor, a compound (salt) represented by formula (1), or a compound (salt) represented by formula (2). [4] The pesticide composition according to any one of [1] to [3], which contains 0.01 to 5,000 parts by mass of the second active ingredient per 1 part by mass of the first active ingredient. [5] A method for using the pesticide composition, which comprises applying an effective amount of the pesticide composition according to any one of [1] to [3] to a target pest, a target crop, soil, or a cultivation carrier in order to protect the target crop from pests. [6] A method for controlling pests, which comprises applying an effective amount of the pest control composition according to any one of [1] to [3] to target crops, soil, or a cultivation carrier.
[0009] The pest control composition of the present invention not only enables the expansion of pests to be controlled, reduces the amount of each active ingredient used, and exerts a significant control effect even at an amount in which each active ingredient alone would not be sufficiently effective, but also has a significant control effect against pests that could not be controlled by each active ingredient alone and pests that exhibit drug resistance, etc.

Mutant acetyl-CoA carboxylases resistant to acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibitors have been reported in, for example, Weed Science, Vol. 53, pp. 728-746 (2005). Crops resistant to acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibitors can be produced by introducing such mutant acetyl-CoA carboxylase genes into crops by genetic engineering techniques, or by introducing a mutation imparting resistance into the crop acetyl-CoA carboxylase. Furthermore, by introducing a nucleic acid into a crop cell that has undergone base substitution mutation, as typified by the chimeraplasty technique (Gura T. 1999. Repairing the Genome's Spelling Mistakes. Science 285: 316-318.), and inducing a site-specific amino acid substitution mutation in the "acetyl-CoA carboxylase" gene, it is possible to produce a crop that is resistant to an "acetyl-CoA carboxylase inhibitor."
[0078] Furthermore, genetically modified crops that have become capable of synthesizing insecticidal toxins using genetic engineering techniques are also included in the target crops of the present invention.

[0082] Furthermore, the target crops of the present invention also include stacked varieties that combine multiple of the above-mentioned classical herbicide traits or useful traits such as herbicide resistance genes, insecticide pest resistance genes, antipathogenic substance production genes, oilseed component modifications, and amino acid content enhancement traits. When the pest control composition of the present invention is used on herbicide-resistant crops, pests can be comprehensively controlled by systematically treating or / and mixedly treating the pest control composition of the present invention with the herbicide to which the crop is resistant (e.g., glyphosate or a salt thereof, glufosinate or a salt thereof, dicamba or a salt thereof, imazethapyr or a salt thereof, isoxaflutole, etc.).
[0083] To control various pests, the pest control composition of the present invention may be applied as a formulation containing the first and second active ingredients in advance, either as is or after appropriate dilution or suspension with water, in an amount effective for controlling various pests, directly or in the usual manner to target crops where the pests are expected to occur, or to the soil for sowing the seeds, or to cultivation carriers. For example, for pests occurring in fruit trees, grains, vegetables, etc., it can be applied to the stems and leaves, or it can be used by seed soaking, seed dressing, seed disinfection, seed treatment such as calper treatment, incorporation into the entire soil layer, row application, incorporation into bed soil, treatment with cell seedlings, treatment in planting holes, treatment at the base of plants, top dressing, treatment with rice seedling boxes, irrigation treatment, soil incorporation treatment, application on the surface of water, etc., or it can be applied to the soil and absorbed by the roots. In addition, it can be used by application to nutrient solution in nutrient solution (hydroponic) cultivation, fumigation, trunk injection, etc. Furthermore, in addition to being applied to pests such as grain storage pests, house pests, sanitary pests, and forest pests, they can also be used as coatings on house building materials, for smoking, as bait, etc. Seed treatment methods include, for example, a method in which seeds are soaked in a liquid or solid formulation, diluted or undiluted, to penetrate the agent, a method in which a solid or liquid formulation is mixed with seeds and coated onto the seed surface, a method in which the formulation is mixed with an adhesive carrier such as a resin or polymer and then coated onto the seeds, and a method in which the formulation is applied near the seeds at the same time as planting. The "seeds" to be treated with this seed treatment refer to plant bodies in the early stages of cultivation used for plant propagation, and examples thereof include seeds, as well as bulbs, tubers, seed potatoes, sprouts, bulbils, bulbs, or plant bodies for vegetative propagation used for cutting cultivation.

[0085] In the method of using the pest control composition of the present invention, examples of the method of application to target crops or to pests such as grain storage pests, house pests, sanitary pests, and forest pests include a method of appropriately diluting a liquid formulation such as an emulsion, suspension (flowable formulation), emulsion suspension (EW formulation), oil suspension (OD formulation), suspoemulsion (SE) formulation, or microemulsion (ME) formulation, or a solid formulation such as a wettable powder or water dispersible granules with water, and applying the dilution; a method of applying a dust formulation; or a method of applying a fumigant. Examples of methods for application to soil or cultivation carriers include applying a liquid or solid formulation, diluted with or without water, to the base of the target crop, near the location where the seedlings will be relocated, or in a seedbed for raising seedlings, etc.; applying a granule to the base of the target crop, near the location where the seedlings will be relocated, or in a seedbed for raising seedlings, etc.; applying a dust, wettable powder, water dispersible granules, granules, etc. and mixing it with the entire soil before sowing or transplanting; and applying a dust, wettable powder, water dispersible granules, granules, etc. to planting holes, rows, etc. before sowing or planting the plants.
[0086] When the composition is processed into a formulation such as an emulsifiable concentrate, suspension (flowable formulation), emulsion suspension (EW formulation), oil suspension (OD formulation), suspoemulsion (SE) formulation, microemulsion (ME) formulation, liquid formulation, wettable powder, water dispersible granule, granule, dust, or smoke concentrate, the application amount of the pest control composition of the present invention will vary depending on various factors, such as the purpose, the pest to be controlled, the growth state of the target crop, weather, environmental conditions, formulation form, application method, application location or time, the blending ratio of the active ingredients, and meteorological conditions. In the case of spray treatment, the total amount of the first and second active ingredients may usually be selected appropriately from the range of 0.01 g to 2,000 g per are, and is preferably in the range of 0.1 g to 500 g. In the case of soil or irrigation treatment, the total amount of the first and second active ingredients can be in the range of 1 g to 1000 g, which can be sprayed or irrigated to the soil surrounding the target crop. In the case of treatment to seeds, the total amount of the first and second active ingredients can be used in the range of 0.01% to 50% relative to the seed mass, preferably 0.1% to 10%. When emulsifiable concentrates, wettable powders, etc. are applied after dilution with water, etc., the application concentration is 0.00001 to 0.1% by mass, and granules, dusts, or liquid formulations for seed treatment can usually be applied as is without dilution.
[0087] For field crops such as potatoes, sweet potatoes, and soybeans, treatment is preferably performed on seeds or on cultivation carriers adjacent to the target crops from the sowing to the seedling raising period. For target crops that are sown directly in a field, in addition to direct treatment on the seeds, treatment at the base of the target crop during cultivation is suitable. Spray treatment using granules or irrigation treatment in liquid form with the agent diluted or undiluted in water can be performed. Treatment in which the granules are mixed with the cultivation carrier before sowing and then sowing is also preferred. Furthermore, for treatment in the sowing and seedling raising period of cultivated plants to be transplanted, in addition to direct treatment on the seeds, irrigation treatment of liquid agent or spray treatment of granules on the seedling raising bed is preferred. Furthermore, treatment in which the granules are applied to the planting hole at the time of planting or mixed with the cultivation carrier near the transplanting site is also preferred.
[0088] When the pest control composition of the present invention is applied to rice, it may be applied to rice seeds, to a seedling growing medium, or to a paddy field or dry paddy field. The term "rice seeds" as used herein refers to rice seeds in a state before they are sown in soil such as a paddy field. Examples of paddy fields include flooded or moist paddy fields. A flooded paddy field refers to a paddy field that has been plowing, watering, puddling, or the like, and then watered further as necessary. A moist paddy field refers to a paddy field that has maintained a moisture content similar to that of a flooded state and in which the soil surface is exposed, for example, by draining the water from the flooded state.
[0089] Rice seeds treated with the pest control composition of the present invention can be directly sown in dry, drenched, or paddy fields, or can be sown in a seedling raising medium such as a seedling box for cultivation. Rice seeds can be germinated by immersing them in water, or by maintaining them in a moist state after immersion in water. A moist state refers to a state in which part or all of the surface of the rice seeds after immersion in water can be exposed to the outside air and the rice seeds can retain moisture. This can be achieved, for example, by covering the rice seeds after immersion in water with a breathable material such as rice straw or cloth, and then sprinkling water over the covering material as needed, or by storing the rice seeds in the mesh or bag-like material used when immersing the rice seeds in water. The seedling raising medium is not particularly limited as long as it is a medium for raising rice seedlings. Other than soil, a seedling raising mat, a seedling raising box, a paddy rice seedling tray, or a seedling bed can also be used, or seedlings can be raised in a pool.
[0090] When applied to rice seedling boxes, the formulation may vary depending on the application time, such as application at the time of sowing, application during the greening period, or application at the time of transplanting. For example, the pest control composition of the present invention may be applied in a form such as a dust, water dispersible granule, or granule in a manner appropriate for the application time. It can also be applied by mixing with the potting soil, and the potting soil can be mixed with a dust, water dispersible granule, or granule, for example, by mixing with the bed soil, mixing with the covering soil, or mixing with the entire potting soil. It is also possible to simply apply the potting soil and various formulations in alternating layers. The application time at the time of sowing may be before, simultaneously with, or after sowing, or after covering the soil. Furthermore, in the field of rice paddies, surface application of granules or the like to paddy fields is commonly used. The application period is not particularly limited as long as it is between the time of sowing rice and the time of transplanting. Examples include pre-sowing soil cover treatment, post-sowing soil cover treatment, pre-sowing bed soil mixing treatment, pre-sowing soil cover mixing treatment, sowing bed soil mixing treatment, sowing soil cover mixing treatment, greening treatment, treatment on the day of transplanting, and simultaneous transplanting treatment. Application may be from 7 days before transplanting to the day before transplanting, or it may be applied at any time between sowing and transplanting. The period from sowing to transplanting varies depending on whether the seedlings are young seedlings (seedlings at around the 2.5-leaf stage), middle seedlings (seedlings at around the 3.5-leaf stage), or mature seedlings (seedlings at around the 4.5-leaf stage), and the seedling raising period also varies depending on weather conditions, but application can be made in any case. Furthermore, kneaded granules or sand-coated granules of the pest control composition of the present invention may be sprayed on seedling raising boxes, or a diluted solution of the pest control composition formulation may be irrigated on seedling raising boxes. The formulation of the pest control composition of the present invention can also be applied by mixing it with bed soil, covering soil, or potting soil, or by mixing the potting soil with a dust, water dispersible granule, or granule, for example, by mixing it with bed soil, covering soil, or the entire potting soil, or it may simply be applied by alternately layering the potting soil and various formulations.
[0091] Methods for applying the pest control composition of the present invention to paddy fields include applying it directly or in a formulated form to the stalks and leaves of transplanted rice, applying it to the paddy soil during direct seeding, and applying it to the water surface of flooded paddy fields. When applying it to the rice stalks and leaves, it may be applied at any time from the seedling raising stage to harvest. The method for applying it to paddy fields is not particularly limited, but includes applying it in its original form, such as a dust or fine granule, or diluting and spraying a solid formulation, such as a suspension (flowable formulation), emulsion suspension (OW formulation), water-dispersible granule, wettable powder, jumbo formulation, pack formulation, or granule, or a liquid formulation, such as a suspoemulsion (SE) formulation, microemulsion (ME) formulation, water-soluble formulation, water-dispersible granule, liquid formulation, emulsion suspension (EW formulation), oil formulation, surf formulation, or emulsion. It is usually sprayed on flooded paddy fields. Additionally, at the time of rice planting, appropriate formulations can be sprayed or injected directly into the soil or mixed with fertilizer, etc. Furthermore, by treating the water inlet or irrigation system or other water source into the paddy field with emulsions, suspensions (flowables), jumbo formulations, etc., they can be applied in a labor-saving manner along with the water supply. When using spraying equipment, any commonly used equipment can be used, including hand-cranked sprayers, power sprayers, punk sprayers, radio-controlled helicopters, manned helicopters, and radio-controlled boats. Alternatively, spraying can be done by hand without using equipment.
[0092] Methods for applying the pesticide composition of the present invention to paddy field soil include application to the entire surface of the paddy field soil (full-surface application), application to furrows made when sowing rice (seeding furrow application), application directly above (0 to 10 cm) or directly below (0 to 10 cm) the rice seeds, and application in stripes or spots near the rice stubble or seeds (side stripe application). When applied to paddy field soil, the composition can be mixed with agricultural materials such as paste fertilizer or granular fertilizer, or applied simultaneously with these. The pesticide composition of the present invention can be applied before sowing or transplanting rice, simultaneously with sowing or transplanting, or immediately after sowing or transplanting. When applied simultaneously with sowing or transplanting, the composition can be applied using an attachment attached to a seeding machine or transplanter, or by other methods. In addition, when applying to the entire surface, the composition can be applied during the period before irrigation after sowing or transplanting, during the mid-drying period, or during intermittent irrigation. When using the pesticide composition of the present invention, the soil surface of the paddy field may be dry, or the soil surface may be moist but not flooded (water depth: 0 cm). When applied to the water surface of a flooded paddy field, it may be applied at any time from sowing or transplanting to harvest, as long as the water depth is maintained at a level that can be maintained by normal rice management.
[0093] When the pesticide composition of the present invention is applied to paddy fields and used for direct-seeded rice cultivation, or when rice seeds to which the pesticide composition of the present invention has been applied are used for direct-seeded cultivation, the rice seeds can be surface-treated with a coating material such as iron powder (iron oxide powder, reduced iron powder, atomized iron powder, electrolytic iron powder, etc.), calcium peroxide, or a molybdenum compound (molybdenum element, molybdenum oxide, molybdic acid and its salts, molybdophosphate and its salts, and molybdosilicic acid and its salts) that supplies oxoanions. Examples of salts of molybdic acid include calcium molybdate, magnesium molybdate, ammonium molybdate, sodium molybdate, and potassium molybdate. Examples of molybdophosphates include ammonium molybdophosphate, molybdosilicic acid ... Examples of suitable coating materials include sodium phosphate and potassium molybdophosphate. Other coating materials, such as tungsten-, chromium-, selenium-, and tellurium-containing materials, may also be used for surface treatment. These coating materials can be used alone or in admixtures in any ratio. If necessary, adjuvants such as mineral powders, such as gypsum and montmorillonite, can be added to increase the amount or improve adhesion to rice seeds. Mixtures of calcium peroxide, gypsum, and mineral powders are commercially available, such as Calper Granule 16 (manufactured by Hodogaya UPL Co., Ltd.). The formulation of the pesticide composition of the present invention can be applied to rice seeds by dust coating. However, rice seeds may also be treated by immersing them in a solution containing the composition before germination, or spraying them with a solution containing the compound after germination.
[0094] The pesticide composition of the present invention can exhibit the desired pest control effect even when a formulation containing a first active ingredient and a formulation containing a second active ingredient are mixed on-site and treated using the above-mentioned treatment method. Furthermore, the desired pest control effect can also be exhibited when a formulation containing a first active ingredient and a formulation containing a second active ingredient are treated at the same time using the above-mentioned treatment method. Here, "at the same time" does not necessarily mean that the treatments are performed at the exact same time, but can also be considered to be performed within a period of about one day, and different treatment methods can also be used for each treatment.
[0095] The pest control composition of the present invention can also be used as a pest control agent for areas other than agricultural land, for example, for controlling pests in areas such as swaths of land after harvesting, fallow fields, paddy ridges, farm roads, waterways, established pastures, cemeteries, parks, roads, sports fields, vacant lots around buildings, cultivated land, railroad tracks, forests, etc., or for controlling undergrowth of fruit trees such as grapes and olives, or grape gnats. In this case, treatment before the onset of pest emergence is economically most effective, but this is not necessarily limited to this, and treatment during the pest reproduction period is also possible.

[0101] Test Example 1: Insecticidal Activity Test 1 Against Rice-Infested Brown Planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens) (1) Test Method: Leaf tops of rice (variety: Nipponbare) were immersed for 15 seconds in a solution (containing 0.01% by mass of Mylino) containing the first active ingredient (ingredient A) and the second active ingredient (ingredient B) described below at the active ingredient concentrations shown in Table 1. The treated leaf tops were air-dried and then placed in 16 mm diameter glass test tubes containing 2 mL of water. Ten brown planthopper (third-instar larvae) were inoculated into each tube. After inoculation, the test tubes were covered with Japanese paper and placed in a thermostatic chamber at 25°C (16 hours light, 8 hours dark) to initiate the test. Seven days after the start of the test, the number of normal parasites was counted, and the mortality rate after 7 days was calculated (number of tests: 3).

[Colby formula] E = x + y - (x x y) / 100 E is the expected value, and means the insecticidal activity (mortality) that can normally be expected when component A and component B are used in combination. x is the insecticidal activity (mortality rate) due to component A. y is the insecticidal activity (mortality rate) due to component B. The test results are summarized in Table 1 below.
