The present disclosure relates to methods and compositions for the production of phytonutrients in microbiome. Methods are disclosed that can be used to provide phytonutrients to a subject via mediating the microbiome of the subject. The methods include administering to a subject a plant functional composition to alter the state of a phytonutrient producer in the subject. The method may also include identifying a phytonutrient producer status of the subject by evaluating a level of at least one of a preselected phytonutrient and a preselected phytonutrient precursor compound in the subject. Also disclosed are plant functional compositions useful in the methods and comprising a phytonutrient precursor compound and an active agent. The active agent comprises probiotics and / or prebiotics and is adapted to mediate the production of the preselected phytonutrients in the gastrointestinal tract of the subject, thereby altering the phytonutrient producer status of the subject.

Provided herein are combinations of agents for enhancing plant growth and methods of using the same. The combination comprises at least one ascaroside (or a derivative or analog of the ascaroside) and at least one phytonutrient. The one or more ascarosides and the one or more phytonutrients may be provided in the same composition, or may be applied together (e.g., substantially simultaneously) or sequentially.
