(Z)-6-heneicosen-11-one (129060) A
lepidopteran pheromone, (Z)-6-Heneicosen-11-one will be incorporated
into end-use products to control the Douglas Fir Tussock Moth (Orgyia
psuedotsugata). |

Chonrostereum
purpureum HQ1 (081309) This new biopesticide
has been registered for inhibiting sprouting and regrowth in
cut stumps of certain deciduous tree species in rights-of-way,
wood lots and conifer plantations, and is a biological alternative
for Glyphosate, Triclopyr, Picloram + 2,4-D, and Hexazinone.
It effectively prevents sprouting by colonizing and decaying
the stump. These new biopesticide products provide users with
a biological herbicide where conventional herbicides can not
be used. |

Harpin
αβ protein (006506) Registration was granted for
Harpin AB, a new type of harpin protein which enhances the growth and
disease resistance of plants to a number of fungal pathogens. |

Paecilomyces
lilacinus strain 251 (028826) Paecilomyces lilacinus is a fungus found in soils throughout the world. BPPD registered Paecilomyces
lilacinus strain 251as a nematicide product. Although many species
of Paecilomyces release potent toxins, no such toxins have been detected
in this strain. The end product, "MeloCon WG", is applied
to the root zone of crops where it parasitizes many species of plant
root nematodes. It does not harm beneficial nematodes or other tested
organisms. This product is a potential alternative to the more toxic
chemicals often used for controlling nematodes. |

Alternaria
destruens Strain
059 (028301) Alternaria destruens strain 059 is
a fungal herbicide intended for control of Dodder (Cuscutta
spp.). A naturally occurring microorganism, it is to be used
as an herbicidal agent in agricultural fields, dry bogs, and
ornamental nurseries. This product is of particular importance
to the cranberry industry, which is in need of new dodder control
mechanisms. |

Bacillus
thuringiensis var.
aizawai strain PS811 Cry1F insecticidal crystal protein
and the genetic material necessary for its production (plasmid insert
PHP12537) in Event DAS-06275-8 corn (006491). The
moCry1F protein, like the poCry1F protein, protects corn from certain
lepidopteran insect larvae including European corn borer (ECB; Ostrinia
nubilalis), southwestern corn borer (SWCB; Diatraea grandiosella),
fall armyworm (FAW; Spodoptera frugiperda) and black cutworm (Agrostis
ipsilon). |

Bacillus
thuringiensis aizawai strain NB200 (006494)
A product containing a new strain of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt)
subspecies aizawai strain NB200, which is targeted against the
larvae of lepidopteran (moth) agricultural pests. Larvae ingest
spores of the bacterium, which ultimately cause the insect digestive
system to fail. Bt pesticides have been used for decades in agriculture
and are renowned for their specificity to the target pests and
their lack of toxicity to non-target organisms and humans. |

Bacillus
thuringiensis Cry34Ab1 and Cry35Ab1 proteins and the genetic
material necessary for their production (plasmid insert PHP 17662)
in Event DAS-59122-7 corn(006490)
The new corn plant-incorporated protectant, Event DAS-59122-7 Corn,
is derived from Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt). It is the second PIP
to offer protection against corn rootworm and is expected to result
in a further reduction of chemical insecticide use by growers. The
Bt proteins used in this product, are called Cry34Ab1 and Cry35Ab1
(Cry 34/35). The availability of multiple corn rootworm-protected
corn products will increase grower choice and price competition,
resulting in lower seed prices for consumers and higher adoption
rates. |

Saponins of Chenopodium quinoa Derived from the seeds
of Chenopodium quinoa, which have long been used as a cereal like
nutritional supplement, this new active ingredient is fungicide applied
to potato, bean, pea, and wheat seeds as a pre-plant seed treatment.
Roots and foliar treatments for tomato seedlings also was approved.
All approved uses are non-food and the saponins in this product are
known to rapidly degrade in the environment. |

Muscodor albus QST 20799 A fungus, Muscodor albus QST 20799, is intended for use as a biofumigant alternative for methyl bromide. This strain is expected to control soil borne, fungal and bacterial diseases
on all food commodities, ornamentals, seeds and propagules. Labeled
for field, greenhouse and post harvest applications, M. albus QST
20799 produces volatile compounds that act as a fumigant. These
volatiles occur naturally in foods and beverages and studies indicate
low toxicity or pathogenicity potential. |
| 9/29/05 |
Cuelure This new active ingredient 4-(p-acetoxyphenyl)-2-
butanone (Cuelure) is a technical grade synthetic semiochemical insect
sex
attractant. It is for manufacturing use only into traps and lures
to control certain Tephritidae flies (fruit
flies) of the order Diptera . The product
is not for direct application to pests. |

Verticillium Isolate WCS 850 Verticillium Isolate WCS850 is a fungus
that is injected into the trunks of elm trees in urban landscapes
to manage Dutch
Elm disease. This Isolate seems to act by stimulating the tree's
natural defenses so that the tree becomes resistant to the
organism that causes Dutch Elm disease. |
