Abstract: The present invention relates to a genotype-independent method for transforming and selecting plant explants. The transformation method includes pre-culturing the explants in the presence of an Agrobacterium inducer and exposing the transformed explants to a shoot regeneration media that accelerates shoot development. Plants generated from this transformation method are provided. In particular, methods for obtaining transgenic Eucalyptus and pine cells and regenerating stably transformed Eucalyptus and pine trees are provided. The invention also provides media, methods, and plasmids for selecting and regenerating plants, particularly forest trees.

Abstract: A new and improved method and apparatus are presented for freshening the air. The device comprises an inner cylindrical member with vents, with a retaining carriage which is capable of housing at least two separate and distinct scented media, and an outer cylindrical member with vents. The inner cylindrical member is concentrically retained within the outer cylindrical member and can be rotated to achieve different alignments of the vents in the inner and outer cylindrical members. The device enables two or more separate and distinct scented media to interface with the air and thereby disperse their scent either in the alternative, thereby enabling the dispersal of different scents without changing the media within the retaining carriage, or at the same time, thereby creating a new and distinct scent due to the multiple air interface of the scented media.
