The subject invention provides compositions and methods of using the same for improving plants' defense by employing naturally-derived chemicals. In a specific embodiment, the composition is from Parthenium argentatum Gray, also known as the guayule plant. Preferred compositions can up-or down-regulate growth genes responsible for the targeted plants' defense mechanisms in order to create physical and/or chemical barriers, and produce detouring exudates, antagonistic compounds, or fumigating compounds that prevent and treat damages from pests in agronomic or non-agronomic plants.

Disclosed herein are pathogen control compositions including a plurality of plant messenger packs, (e.g., including a plant extracellular vesicle (EV), or segment, portion, or extract thereof), that are useful in methods for treating or preventing an infection in an animal and/or decreasing the fitness of pathogens (e.g., animal pathogens), or vectors thereof.

Disclosed herein are pest control, e.g., biopesticide or biorepellent, compositions including a plurality of plant messenger packs (e.g., including a plant extracellular vesicle (EV), or segment, portion, or extract thereof) that are useful in methods for decreasing the fitness of pests (e.g., agriculture pests) and/or increasing the fitness of a plant.

A topical mosquito control product includes active and inert ingredients. The active ingredients include natural materials and may include soybean oil, geraniol, cinnamon oil and cedar wood oil. The inert ingredients include natural materials and may include bee's wax, isopropyl alcohol, sunflower oil, salt, triethyl citrate and water.

The invention relates to biotechnology, pharmacy, cosmetology and veterinary medicine, and can be used in the manufacture of therapeutic, prophylactic, cosmetic, and sanitary and hygienic products such as sprays for air treatment, as well as gels, balms, lotions and liquids for impregnating antiseptic and immune-enhancing wipes, which do not cause side effects.

The technical problem solved by the proposed technical solution consists in increasing the aggregative stability and improving the organoleptic properties of the composition of essential oils and phytoextracts during dilution, storage, pressure increase, freezing while maintaining biological activity. The basic alcoholic-based composition for the preparation of a biologically active agent for the treatment of the human environment includes combinations of essential oils and phytoextracts at a total amount of up to 48%. Plants from the Labiatae and Compositae families rich in terpenoids, flavonoids, carotenoids and anthocyans are used as a source of essential oils and phytoextracts.

The proposed basic formulation of the composition is used to obtain agents for treating air of the indoor space by means of aerosol dispensers.

The finished products retain their biological activity during storage and use.
