The present invention provides a method for preventing and/or treating infection of plant species by fungal, mildew-causing, bacterial and/or viral pathogens, wherein said method comprises the steps of a) providing a mixture of one or more non-pathogenic bacteria and one or more activating agents, and b) administering the mixture of step (a) to said plant species, by means of both (i) adding a plurality of granules coated with said mixture to the medium in which said plant is growing, and (ii) applying a foliar spray comprising said mixture to the aerial parts of said plant species.

The invention relates to biting arthropod repellent compositions comprising nootkatone. The application also relates to a method of repelling said biting arthropods by application of the nootkatone composition to a hard or soft surface, to a method of treating an arthropod infestation and to a method of reducing the transmission of a parasite or disease pathogen spread by a biting arthropod using the nootkatone composition.

The present invention relates to agrochemical compositions: their use for foliar application; their use at low spray volumes; their use by unmanned aerial systems (UAS), unmanned guided vehicles (UGV), and tractor mounted boom sprayers fitted with conventional nozzles but also pulse width modulation spray nozzles or rotating disc droplet applicators; and their application for controlling agricultural pests, weeds or diseases, in particular on waxy leaves.

Provided herein are novel antibacterial compounds of Formula I. The compounds can be made through enzymatic oxidative dimerization in the presence of a suitable organism and one or more metal salts. Pathogenic bacteria exposed to the compound of Formula I do not develop resistance to these compounds even after prolonged exposure. Also provided herein are methods of treating bacterial infections, and method of killing or disinfecting bacteria.
