Of that, 21 billion gallons are required to come from advanced fuels such as cellulosic ethanols, bio-butanol and "green gasoline."

Where the United States needs to go, though, is that we can't rely upon corn only to develop our ethanols, so we're spending a lot of money on cellulostic (ph) research, and that is the ability to convert wood chips, for example, to ethanol.

Amyris can tweak the genetic structure of those microbes, turning them into better fuel factories and creating ethanols and biodiesel that are far superior to those made directly from plants like corn or sugar cane.
