preservatives , dyes and pigments , defoamers , inorganic and organic thickeners , water repellents , if appropriate siccatives and uv stabilizers , gibberellins and also water and further processing auxiliaries . depending on the formulation type to be prepared in each case , further processing steps such as , for example , wet grinding , dry grinding or granulation may be required . the compositions according to the invention do not only comprise ready - to - use compositions which can be applied with suitable apparatus to the plant or the seed , but also commercial concentrates which have to be diluted with water prior to use . the active compound combinations according to the invention can be present in ( commercial ) formulations and in the use forms prepared from these foiniulations as a mixture with other ( known ) active compounds , such as insecticides , attractants , sterilants , bactericides , acaricides , nematicides , fungicides , growth regulators , herbicides , fertilizers , safeners and semiochemicals . the treatment according to the invention of the plants and plant parts with the active compounds or compositions is carried out directly or by action on their surroundings , habitat or storage space using customary treatment methods , for example by dipping , spraying , atomizing , irrigating , evaporating , dusting , fogging , broadcasting , foaming , painting , spreading - on , watering ( drenching ), drip irrigating and , in the case of propagation material , in particular in the case of seeds , furthermore as a powder for dry seed treatment , a solution for seed treatment , a water - soluble powder for slurry treatment , by incrusting , by coating with one or more layers , etc . it is furthermore possible to apply the active compounds by the ultra - low volume method , or to inject the active compound preparation or the active compound itself into the soil . the invention furthermore comprises a method for treating seed . the invention furthermore relates to seed treated according to one of the methods described in the preceding paragraph . the active compounds or compositions according to the invention are especially suitable for treating seed . a large part of the damage to crop plants caused by harmful organisms is triggered by an infection of the seed during storage or after sowing as well as during and after germination of the plant . this phase is particularly critical since the roots and shoots of the growing plant are particularly sensitive , and even small damage may result in the death of the plant . accordingly , there is great interest in protecting the seed and the germinating plant by using appropriate compositions . the control of phytopathogenic fungi and / or animal pests by treating the seed of plants has been known for a long time and is the subject of continuous improvements . however , the treatment of seed entails a series of problems which cannot always be solved in a satisfactory manner . thus , it is desirable to develop methods for protecting the seed and the germinating plant which dispense with the additional application of crop protection agents after sowing or after the emergence of the plants or which at least considerably reduce additional application . it is furthermore desirable to optimize the amount of active compound employed in such a way as to provide maximum protection for the seed and the germinating plant from attack by phytopathogenic fungi , but without damaging the plant itself by the active compound employed . in particular , methods for the treatment of seed should also take into consideration the intrinsic fungicidal properties of transgenic plants in order to achieve optimum protection of the seed and the germinating plant with a minimum of crop protection agents being employed . accordingly , the present invention also relates in particular to a method for protecting seed and germinating plants against attack by phytopathogenic fungi and / or animal pests by treating the seed with a composition according to the invention . the invention also relates to the use of the compositions according to the invention for treating seed for protecting the seed and the germinating plant against phytopathogenic fungi and / or animal pests . furthermore , the invention relates to seed treated with a composition according to the invention for protection against phytopathogenic fungi and / or animal pests . the control of phytopathogenic fungi and / or animal pests which damage plants post - emergence is carried out primarily by treating the soil and the above - ground parts of plants with crop protection compositions . owing to the concerns regarding a possible impact of the crop protection composition on the environment and the health of humans and animals , there are efforts to reduce the amount of active compounds applied . one of the advantages of the present invention is that , because of the particular systemic properties of the compositions according to the invention , treatment of the seed with these compositions not only protects the seed itself , but also the resulting plants after emergence , from phytopathogenic fungi and / or animal pests . in this manner , the immediate treatment of the crop at the time of sowing or shortly thereafter can be dispensed with . it is also considered to be advantageous that the mixtures according to the invention can be used in particular also for transgenic seed where the plant growing from this seed is capable of expressing a protein which acts against pests . by treating such seed with the active compound combinations or compositions according to the invention , even by the expression of the , for example , insecticidal protein , certain pests may be controlled . surprisingly , a further synergistic effect may be observed here , which additionally increases the effectiveness of the protection against attack by pests . the compositions according to the invention are suitable for protecting seed of any plant variety employed in agriculture , in the greenhouse , in forests or in horticulture or viticulture . in particular , this takes the form of seed of cereals ( such as wheat , barley , rye , triticale , millet , oats ), maize ( corn ), cotton , soya bean , rice , potatoes , sunflowers , beans , coffee , beets ( e . g . sugar beets and fodder beets ), peanuts , oilseed rape , poppies , olives , coconuts , cacao , sugar cane , tobacco , vegetables ( such as tomatoes , cucumbers , onions and lettuce ), lawn and ornamental plants ( also see below ). the treatment of seeds of cereals ( such as wheat , barley , rye , triticale , and oats ), maize ( corn ) and rice is of particular importance . as also described further below , the treatment of transgenic seed with the active compound combinations or compositions according to the invention is of particular importance . this refers to the seed of plants containing at least one heterologous gene which allows the expression of a polypeptide or protein having insecticidal properties . the heterologous gene in transgenic seed can originate , for example , from microorganisms of the species bacillus , rhizobium , pseudomonas , serratia , trichoderma , clavibacter , glomus or gliocladium . preferably , this heterologous gene is from bacillus sp ., the gene product having activity against the european corn borer and / or the western corn rootworm . particularly preferably , the heterologous gene originates from bacillus thuringiensis . in the context of the present invention , the active compound combinations or compositions according to the invention are applied on their own or in a suitable formulation to the seed . preferably , the seed is treated in a state in which it is sufficiently stable so that the treatment does not cause any damage . in general , treatment of the seed may take place at any point in time between harvesting and sowing . usually , the seed used is separated from the plant and freed from cobs , shells , stalks , coats , hairs or the flesh of the fruits . thus , it is possible to use , for example , seed which has been harvested , cleaned and dried to a moisture content of less than 15 % by weight . alternatively , it is also possible to use seed which , after drying , has been treated , for example , with water and then dried again . when treating the seed , care must generally be taken that the amount of the composition according to the invention applied to the seed and / or the amount of further additives is chosen in such a way that the germination of the seed is not adversely affected , or that the resulting plant is not damaged . this must be borne in mind in particular in the case of active compounds which may have phytotoxic effects at certain application rates . the compositions according to the invention can be applied directly , that is to say without comprising further components and without having been diluted . in general , it is preferable to apply the compositions to the seed in the form of a suitable formulation . suitable formulations and methods for the treatment of seed are known to the person skilled in the art and are described , for example , in the following documents : u . s . pat . no . 4 , 272 , 417 a , u . s . pat . no . 4 , 245 , 432 a , u

be used according to the invention include all customary binders which can be used in seed dressings . polyvinylpyrrolidone , polyvinyl acetate , polyvinyl alcohol and tylose may be mentioned as being preferred . suitable gibberellins that may be present in the seed dressing formulations to be used according to the invention are preferably the gibberellins a1 , a3 (= gibberellic acid ), a4 and a7 ; particular preference is given to using gibberellic acid . the gibberellins are known ( cf . r . wegler “ chemie der pflanzenschutz - and schädlingsbekämpfungsmittel ” [ chemistry of crop protection agents and pesticides ], vol . 2 , springer verlag , 1970 , pp . 401 - 412 ). the seed dressing formulations which can be used according to the invention may be used directly or after dilution with water beforehand to treat seed of any of a very wide variety of types . the seed dressing formutations which can be used according to the invention or their dilute preparations may also be used to

seed dressing formulations which can be used according to the invention or the preparations prepared from them by adding water includes all mixing equipment which can commonly be used for dressing . the specific procedure adopted when dressing comprises introducing the seed into a mixer , adding the particular desired amount of seed dressing formulation , either as it is or following dilution with water beforehand , and carrying out mixing until the formulation is unifoi oily distributed on the seed . optionally , a drying operation follows . the active compounds or compositions according to the invention have strong microbicidal activity and can be used for controlling unwanted microorganisms , such as fungi and bacteria , in crop protection and material protection . in crop protection , fungicides can be used for controlling plasmodiophoromycetes , oomycetes , chytridiomycetes , zygomycetes , ascomycetes , basidiomycetes and deuteromycetes . in crop protection , bactericides can be used for controlling pseudomonadaceae , rhizobiaceae , enterobacteriaceae , corynebacteriaceae and streptomycetaceae . the fungicidal compositions according to the invention can be

active compound combinations or compositions according to the invention , which are applied to the seed , the plant or plant parts , the fruit or the soil in which the plants grow . preference is given to application onto the plant or the plant parts , the fruits or the soil in which the plants grow . the compositions according to the invention for combating phytopathogenic fungi in crop protection comprise an active , but non - phytotoxic amount of the compounds according to the invention . “ active , but non - phytotoxic amount ” shall mean an amount of the composition according to the invention which is sufficient to control or to completely kill the plant disease caused by fungi , which amount at the same time does not exhibit noteworthy symptoms of phytotoxicity . these application rates generally may be varied in a broader range , which rate depends on several factors , e . g . the phytopathogenic fungi , the plant or crop , the climatic conditions and the ingredients of the composition according to the invention . the fact that the active compounds , at the concentrations required for the controlling of plant diseases , are well tolerated by plants permits the treatment of aerial plant parts , of vegetative propagation material and seed , and of the soil . according to the invention , it is possible to treat all plants and parts of plants . plants are to be understood here as meaning all plants and plant populations , such as wanted and unwanted wild plants or crop plants ( including naturally occurring crop plants ). crop plants can be plants which can be obtained by conventional breeding and optimization methods or by biotechnological and genetic engineering methods or combinations of these methods , including the transgenic plants and including plant cultivars which can or cannot be protected by plant variety protection rights . parts of plants are to be understood as meaning all above - ground and below - ground parts and organs of the plants , such as shoot , leaf , flower and root , examples which may be mentioned being leaves , needles , stems , trunks , flowers , fruit bodies , fruits and seeds and also roots , tubers and rhizomes . plant parts also include harvested material and vegetative and generative propagation material , for example seedlings , tubers , rhizomes , cuttings and seeds . preference is given to the treatment of the plants and the above - ground and below - ground parts and organs of the plants , such as shoot , leaf , flower and root , examples which may be mentioned being leaves , needles , stems , trunks , flowers , and fruits . the active compounds of the invention , in combination with good plant tolerance and favourable toxicity to warm - blooded animals and being tolerated well by the environment , are suitable for protecting plants and plant organs , for increasing the harvest yields , for improving the quality of the harvested material . they may be preferably employed as crop protection agents . they are active against normally sensitive and resistant species and against all or some stages of development . the following plants may be mentioned as plants which can be treated according to the invention : cotton , flax , grapevines , fruit , vegetable , such as rosaceae sp . ( for example pomaceous fruit , such as apples and pears , but also stone fruit , such as apricots , cherries , almonds and peaches and soft fruit such as strawberries ), ribesioidae sp ., juglandaceae sp ., betulaceae sp ., anacardiaceae sp ., fagaceae sp ., moraceae sp ., oleaceae sp ., actimidaceae sp ., lauraceae sp ., musaceae sp .

( for example cucumbers ), alliaceae sp . ( for example leek , onions ), papilionaceae sp . ( for example peas ); major crop plants , such gramineae sp . ( for example maize , lawn , cereals such as wheat , rye , rice , barley , oats , millet and triticale ), asteraceae sp . ( for example sunflowers ), brassicaceae sp . ( for example white cabbage , red cabbage , broccoli , cauliflowers , brussels sprouts , pak choi , kohlrabi , garden radish , and also oilseed rape , mustard , horseradish and cress ), fabacae sp . ( for example beans , peas , peanuts ), papilionaceae sp . ( for example soya beans ), solanaceae sp . ( for example potatoes ), chenopodiaceae sp . ( for example sugar beet , fodder beet , swiss chard , beetroot ); crop plants and ornamental plants in garden and forest ; and also in each case genetically modified varieties of these plants . as already mentioned above , it is possible to treat all plants and their parts according to the invention . in a preferred embodiment , wild plant species and plant cultivars , or those obtained by conventional biological breeding methods , such as crossing or protoplast fusion , and parts thereof , are treated . in a further preferred embodiment , transgenic plants and plant cultivars obtained by genetic engineering methods , if appropriate in combination with conventional methods ( genetically modified organisms ), and parts thereof are treated . the terms “ parts ”, “ parts of plants ” and “ plant parts ” have been explained above . particularly preferably , plants of the plant cultivars which are in each case commercially available or in use are treated according to the invention . plant cultivars are to be understood as meaning plants having novel properties (“ traits ”) which have been obtained by conventional breeding , by mutagenesis or by recombinant dna techniques . these can be cultivars , bio - or genotypes . the method of treatment according to the invention is used in the treatment of genetically modified organisms ( gmos ), e . g . plants or seeds . genetically modified plants ( or transgenic plants ) are plants of which a heterologous gene has been stably integrated into the genome . the expression “ heterologous gene ” essentially means a gene which is provided or assembled outside the plant and when introduced in the nuclear , chloroplastic or mitochondrial genome gives the transformed plant new or improved agronomic or other properties by expressing a protein or polypeptide of interest or by down regulating or silencing other gene ( s ) which are present in the plant ( using for example , antisense technology , co - suppression technology or rna interference — rnai - technology ). a heterologous gene that is located in the genome is also called a transgene . a transgene that is defined by its particular location in the plant genome is called a transformation or transgenic event . depending on the plant species or plant cultivars , their location and growth conditions ( soils , climate , vegetation period , diet ), the treatment according to the invention may also result in super - additive (“ synergistic ”) effects . thus , for example , reduced application rates and / or a widening of the activity spectrum and / or an increase in the activity of the active compounds and compositions which can be used according to the invention , better plant growth , increased tolerance to high or low temperatures , increased tolerance to drought or to water or soil salt content , increased flowering performance , easier harvesting , accelerated maturation , higher harvest yields , bigger fruits , larger plant height , greener leaf color , earlier flowering , higher quality and / or a higher nutritional value of the harvested products , higher sugar concentration within the fruits , better storage stability and / or processability of the harvested products are possible , which exceed the effects which were actually to be expected . at certain application rates , the active compound combinations according to the invention may also have a strengthening effect in plants . accordingly , they are also suitable for mobilizing the defense system of the plant against attack by unwanted phytopathogenic fungi and / or microorganisms and / or viruses . this may , if appropriate , be one of the reasons of the enhanced activity of the combinations according to the invention , for example against fungi . plant - strengthening ( resistance - inducing ) substances are to be understood as meaning , in the present context , those substances or combinations of substances which are capable of stimulating the defense system of plants in such a way that , when subsequently inoculated with unwanted phytopathogenic fungi and / or microorganisms and / or viruses , the treated plants display a substantial degree of resistance to these phytopathogenic fungi and / or microorganisms and / or viruses , thus , the substances according to the invention can be employed for protecting plants against attack by the abovementioned pathogens within a certain period of time after the treatment . the period of time within which protection is effected generally extends from 1 to 10 days , preferably 1 to 7 days , after the treatment of the plants with the active compounds . plants and plant cultivars which are preferably to be treated according to the invention include all plants which have genetic material which impart particularly advantageous , useful traits to these plants ( whether obtained by breeding and / or biotechnological means ). plants and plant cultivars which are also preferably to be treated according to the invention are resistant against one or more biotic stresses , i . e . said plants show a better defense against animal and microbial pests , such as against nematodes , insects , mites , phytopathogenic fungi , bacteria , viruses and / or viroids . plants and plant cultivars which may also be treated according to the invention are those plants which are resistant to one or more abiotic stresses . abiotic stress conditions may include , for example , drought , cold temperature exposure , heat exposure , osmotic stress , flooding , increased soil salinity , increased mineral exposure , ozone exposure , high light exposure , limited availability of nitrogen nutrients , limited availability of phosphorus nutrients , shade avoidance . plants and plant cultivars which may also be treated according to the invention , are those plants characterized by enhanced yield characteristics . increased yield in said plants can be the result of , for example , improved plant physiology , growth and development , such as water use efficiency , water retention efficiency , improved nitrogen use , enhanced carbon assimilation , improved photosynthesis , increased germination efficiency and accelerated maturation . yield can furthermore be affected by improved plant architecture ( under stress and non - stress conditions ), including but not limited to , early flowering , flowering control for hybrid seed production , seedling vigor , plant size , internode number and distance , root growth , seed size , fruit size , pod size , pod or ear number , seed number per pod or ear , seed mass , enhanced seed filling , reduced seed dispersal , reduced pod dehiscence and lodging resistance . further yield traits include seed composition , such as carbohydrate content , protein content , oil content and composition , nutritional value , reduction in anti - nutritional compounds , improved processability and better storage stability . plants that may be treated according to the invention are hybrid plants that already express the characteristic of heterosis or hybrid vigor which results in generally higher yield , vigor , health and resistance towards biotic and abiotic stress factors . such plants are typically made by crossing an inbred male - sterile parent line ( the female parent ) with another inbred male - fertile parent line ( the male parent ). hybrid seed is typically harvested from the male sterile plants and sold to growers . male sterile plants can sometimes ( e . g . in corn ) be produced by detasseling , i . e . the mechanical removal of the male reproductive organs ( or males flowers ) but , more typically , male sterility is the result of genetic determinants in the plant genome . in that case , and especially when seed is the desired product to be harvested from the hybrid plants it is typically useful to ensure that male fertility in the hybrid plants is fully restored . this can be accomplished by ensuring that the male parents have appropriate fertility restorer genes which are capable of restoring the male fertility in hybrid plants that contain the genetic determinants responsible for male - sterility . genetic determinants for male sterility may be located in the cytoplasm . examples of cytoplasmic male sterility ( cms ) were for instance described in brassica species . however , genetic determinants for male sterility can also be located in the nuclear genome . male sterile plants can also be obtained by plant biotechnology methods such as genetic engineering . a particularly useful means of obtaining male - sterile plants is described in wo 89 / 10396 in which , for example , a ribonuclease such as barnase is selectively expressed in the tapetum cells in the stamens . fertility can then be restored by expression in the tapetum cells of a ribonuclease inhibitor such as barstar . plants or plant cultivars ( obtained by plant biotechnology methods such as genetic engineering ) which may be treated according to the invention are herbicide - tolerant plants , i . e . plants made tolerant to one or more given herbicides . such plants can be obtained either by genetic transformation , or by selection of plants containing a mutation imparting such herbicide tolerance . herbicide - tolerant plants are for example glyphosate - tolerant plants , i . e . plants made tolerant to the herbicide glyphosate or salts thereof . plants can be made tolerant to glyphosate through different means . for example , glyphosate - tolerant plants can be obtained by transforming the plant with a gene encoding the enzyme 5 - enolpyruvylshikimate - 3 - phosphate synthase ( epsps ). examples of such epsps genes are the aroa gene ( mutant ct7 ) of the bacterium salmonella typhimurium , the cp4 gene of the bacterium agrobacterium sp , the genes encoding a petunia epsps , a tomato epsps , or an eleusine epsps . it can also be a mutated epsps . glyphosate - tolerant plants can also be obtained by expressing a gene that encodes a glyphosate oxido - reductase enzyme . glyphosate - tolerant plants can also be obtained by expressing a gene that encodes a glyphosate acetyl transferase enzyme . glyphosate - tolerant plants can also be obtained by selecting plants containing naturally - occurring mutations of the above - mentioned genes . other herbicide resistant plants are for example plants that are made tolerant to herbicides inhibiting the enzyme glutamine synthase , such as bialaphos , phosphinothricin or glufosinate . such plants can be obtamed by expressing an enzyme detoxifying the herbicide or a mutant glutamine synthase enzyme that is resistant to inhibition . one such efficient detoxifying enzyme is an enzyme encoding a phosphinothricin acetyltransferase ( such as the bar or pat protein from streptomyces species ). plants expressing an exogenous phosphinothricin acetyltransferase are also described . further herbicide - tolerant plants are also plants that are made tolerant to the herbicides inhibiting the enzyme hydroxyphenylpyruvatedioxygenase ( hppd ). hydroxyphenylpyruvatedioxygenases are enzymes that catalyze the reaction in which para - hydroxyphenylpyruvate ( hpp ) is transformed into homogentisate . plants tolerant to hppd - inhibitors can be transformed with a gene encoding a naturally - occurring resistant hppd enzyme , or a gene encoding a mutated hppd enzyme . tolerance to hppd - inhibitors can also be obtained by transforming plants with genes encoding certain enzymes enabling the formation of homogentisate despite the inhibition of the native hppd enzyme by the hppd - inhibitor . tolerance of plants to hppd inhibitors can also be improved by transforming plants with a gene encoding an enzyme prephenate dehydrogenase in addition to a gene encoding an hppd - tolerant enzyme . still further herbicide resistant plants are plants that are made tolerant to acetolactate synthase ( als ) inhibitors . known als - inhibitors include , for example , sulfonylurea , imidazolinone , triazolopyrimidines , pyrimidinyoxy ( thio ) benzoates , and / or sulfonylaminocarbonyltriazolinone herbicides . different mutations in the als enzyme ( also known as acetohydroxyacid synthase , ahas ) are known to confer tolerance to different herbicides and groups of herbicides . the production of sulfonylurea - tolerant plants and imidazolinone - tolerant plants is described in wo 1996 / 033270 . other imidazolinone - tolerant plants are also described . further sulfonylurea - and imidazolinone - tolerant plants are also described in for example wo 2007 / 024782 . other plants tolerant to imidazolinone and / or sulfonylurea can be obtained by induced mutagenesis , selection in cell cultures in the presence of the herbicide or mutation breeding as described for example for soybeans , for rice , for sugar beet , for lettuce , or for sunflower . plants or plant cultivars ( obtained by plant biotechnology methods such as genetic engineering ) which may also be treated according to the invention are insect - resistant transgenic plants , i . e . plants made resistant to attack by certain target insects . such plants can be obtained by genetic transformation , or by selection of plants containing a mutation imparting such insect resistance . an “ insect - resistant transgenic plant ”, as used herein , includes any plant containing at least one transgene comprising a coding sequence encoding : 1 ) an insecticidal crystal protein from bacillus thuringiensis or an insecticidal portion thereof , such as the insecticidal crystal proteins listed online at : http :// www . lifesci . sussex . ac . uk / home /

hybrid of the proteins of 1 ) above or a hybrid of the proteins of 2 ) above , e . g ., the cry1a . 105 protein produced by corn event mon98034 ( wo 2007 / 027777 ); or 4 ) a protein of any one of 1 ) to 3 ) above wherein some , particularly 1 to 10 , amino acids have been replaced by another amino acid to obtain a higher insecticidal activity to a target insect species , and / or to expand the range of target insect species affected , and / or because of changes introduced into the encoding dna during cloning or transformation , such as the cry3bb1 protein in corn events mon863 or mon88017 , or the cry3a protein in corn event mir604 ; 5 ) an insecticidal secreted protein from bacillus thuringiensis or bacillus cereus , or an insecticidal portion thereof , such as the vegetative insecticidal ( vip ) proteins listed at : http :// www . lifesci . sussex . ac . uk / home / neil_crickmore / bt / vip . html , e . g . proteins from the vip3aa protein class ; or 6 ) secreted protein from bacillus thuringiensis or bacillus cereus which is insecticidal in the presence of a second secreted protein from bacillus thuringiensis or b . cereus , such as the binary toxin made up of the vip1a and vip2a proteins ; or 7 ) hybrid insecticidal protein comprising parts from different secreted proteins from bacillus thuringiensis or bacillus cereus , such as a hybrid of the proteins in 1 ) above or a hybrid of the proteins in 2 ) above ; or 8 ) protein of any one of 1 ) to 3 ) above wherein some , particularly 1 to 10 , amino acids have been replaced by another amino acid to obtain a higher insecticidal activity to a target insect species , and / or to expand the range of target insect species affected , and / or because of changes introduced into the encoding dna during cloning or transformation ( while still encoding an insecticidal protein ), such as the vip3aa protein in cotton event cot102 . of course , an insect - resistant transgenic plant , as used herein , also includes any plant comprising a combination of genes encoding the proteins of any one of the above classes 1 to 8 . in one embodiment , an insect - resistant plant contains more than one transgene encoding a protein of any one of the above classes 1 to 8 , to expand the range of target insect species affected when using different proteins directed at different target insect species , or to delay insect resistance development to the plants by using different proteins insecticidal to the same target insect species but having a different mode of action , such as binding to different receptor binding sites in the insect . plants or plant cultivars ( obtained by plant biotechnology methods such as genetic engineering ) which may also be treated according to the invention are tolerant to abiotic stresses . such plants can be obtained by genetic transformation , or by selection of plants containing a mutation imparting such stress resistance . particularly useful stress tolerance plants include : a . plants which contain a transgene capable of reducing the expression and / or the activity of poly ( adp - ribose ) polymerase ( parp ) gene in the plant cells or plants b . plants which contain a stress tolerance enhancing transgene capable of reducing the expression and / or the activity of the parg encoding genes of the plants or plants cells . c . plants which

product and / or altered properties of specific ingredients of the harvested product such as : 1 ) transgenic plants which synthesize a modified starch , which in its physical - chemical

suited for special applications . 2 ) transgenic plants which synthesize non starch carbohydrate polymers or which synthesize non starch carbohydrate polymers with altered properties in comparison to

10 days , even more preferably 1 to 7 days after the treatment of the plants with the combinations or up to 200 days after the treatment of plant propagation material . furthermore combinations and compositions according to the invention may also be used to reduce the contents of mycotoxins in plants and the harvested plant material and therefore in foods and animal feed stuff made therefrom . especially but not exclusively the following mycotoxins can be specified : deoxynivalenole ( don ), nivalenole , 15 - ac - don , 3 - ac - don , t2 - und ht2 - toxins , fumonisines , zearalenone moniliformine , fusarine , diaceotoxyscirpenole ( das ), beauvericine , enniatine , fusaroproliferine , fusarenole , ochratoxines , patuline , ergotalkaloides und aflatoxines , which are caused for example by the following fungal diseases : fusarium spec ., like fusarium acuminatum , f . avenaceum , f . crookwellense , f . culmorum , f . graminearum ( gibberella zeae ), f . equiseti , f . fujikoroi , f . musarum , f . oxysporum , f . proliferatum , f . poae , f . pseudograminearum , f . sambucinum , f . scirpi , f . semitectum , f . solani , f . sporotrichoides , f . langsethiae , f . subglutinans , f . tricinctum , f . verticillioides and others but also by aspergillus spec ., penicillium spec ., claviceps purpurea , stachybotrys spec . and others . the good fungicidal and / or insecticidal and / or acaricidal activity of the active compound combinations according to the invention is evident from the example below . while the individual active compounds exhibit weaknesses with regard to the fungicidal and / or insecticidal and / or acaricidal activity , the combinations have an activity which exceeds a simple addition of activities . a synergistic effect of fungicides , insecticides and acaricides is always present when the fungicidal and / or insecticidal and / or acaricidal activity of the active compound combinations exceeds the total of the activities of the active compounds when applied individually . the expected activity for a given combination of two active compounds can be calculated as follows ( cf . colby , s . r ., “ calculating synergistic and antagonistic responses of herbicide combinations ”, weeds 1967 , 15 , 20 - 22 ): x is the efficacy when active compound a is applied at an application rate of m ppm ( or g / ha ), y is the efficacy when active compound b is applied at an application rate of n ppm ( or g / ha ), e is the efficacy when the active compounds a and b are applied at application rates of m and n ppm ( or g / ha ), respectively , and the degree of efficacy , expressed in % is denoted . 0 % means an efficacy which corresponds to that of the control while an efficacy of 100 % means that no disease is observed . if the actual fungicidal activity exceeds the calculated value , then the activity of the combination is super - additive , i . e . a synergistic effect exists . in this case , the efficacy which was actually observed must be greater than the value for the expected efficacy ( e ) calculated from the abovementioned formula . a further way of demonstrating a synergistic effect is the method of tammes ( cf . “ isoboles , a graphic representation of synergism in pesticides ” in neth . j . plant path ., 1964 , 70 , 73 - 80 ). the invention is illustrated by the examples below . however , the
