Fluquinometoate exhibits effective control even at low doses, making it suitable for preparing bactericides, particularly fungicides for crops and plants. Additionally, it enhances crop growth and development by promoting plant height, stimulating chlorophyll synthesis, and increasing leaf area, resulting in greener, thicker leaves that improve photosynthetic efficiency. This indirectly enhances plant immunity and resilience to adverse conditions, bolstering overall plant strength.
Fluquinometoate is effective against bacterial diseases caused by pathogens such as Pectobacterium (causing soft rot in cruciferous vegetables and potato black leg) and Dickie’s genus (causing sweet potato stem rot, corn bacterial stem rot, rice bacterial basal rot, potato black leg, pear rust, etc.).
IP SCENARIO: Shandong United Pesticide Industry Co., Ltd. initially filed an international patent application on March 24, 2020, and set to expire on March 24, 2040. This application pertains to agricultural bactericides, specifically focusing on the quinolinecarboxylic acid compound Fluquinometoate, its preparation method, and its applications.
Following this, Shandong also filed a process patent application for fluquinometoate on March 13, 2020, set to expire on March 13, 2040. Additionally, they filed combination patent applications, with the most recent one submitted on October 26, 2021, set to expire on October 26, 2041.
