The ecdysone receptor is a nuclear receptor found in arthropods, where it controls development and contributes to other processes such as reproduction. The receptor is a non-covalent heterodimer of two proteins, the EcR protein and ultraspiracle protein (USP). It binds to and is activated by ecdysteroids. Insect ecdysone receptors are currently better characterized than those from other arthropods, and mimics of ecdysteroids are used commercially as caterpillar-selective insecticides.
ACTIVE MIXTURES AS INSECTICIDES, COMPRISING A CARBOXAMIDE COMPOUND
The present invention relates to pesticide mixtures comprising as active compound I a carboxamide derivative active as an insecticide and at least one active compound II selected from group M comprising acetylcholine esterase inhibitors, GABA-regulated chloride channel antagonists, sodium channel modulators, nicotinic acetylcholine receptor agonists / antagonists, allosteric nicotinic acetylcholine receptor activators, chloride channel activators, juvenile hormone mimics, homopteran feeding blockers, mite growth inhibitors, mitochondrial ATP synthase inhibitors, oxidative phosphorylation uncouplers, chitin biosynthesis inhibitors, molting disruptors, ecdyson receptor agonists, octamine receptor agonists, MET inhibitors, voltage-gated sodium channel blockers, lipid synthesis inhibitors,ryanodine receptor modulators and other compounds defined in the description, in synergistically effective amounts. The invention also relates to methods and the use of these mixtures to combat and control insects, arachnids, or nematodes in plants, and to protect these plants against pest infestation, in particular also to protect plant propagation material, such as seeds.
