METHOD FOR CONTROLLING HARMFUL ORGANISMS IN THE CULTIVATION OF USEFUL PLANTS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002052943
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
The invention relates to a method for controlling harmful organisms in genetically modified maize plants, containing a gene derived from Bacillus thuringiensis, said gene coding for and expressing a protein with an insecticidal action. Said method is characterised in that a quantity of one or more compounds that act as an insecticide from the groups (a) to (f), described in detail in the description, is applied to the plants, their seeds or propagation products and/or the area in which they are cultivated: a) insecticidal organophosphorous compounds, b) pyrethroids, c) insecticidal carbamates, d) biopesticides, e) insecticidal growth regulators f) other substances. The inventive method enables a reduction in the quantity of expended pesticides, which act in synergy with the transgenic plants, in addition to an increased and wider-ranging efficiency of said transgenic plants, thus offering economic and ecological advantages.
