It was, in every sense, the Holy Grail of biofuels research, and one that scientists had been looking for since the early 1990s. So, of course, when Montana State University (MSU) researchers Keith Cooksey, Brent Peyton and Rob Gardner came upon it, they were amazed and ecstatic.

Nothing comes as a surprise anymore--at least not in the world of biofuels. When not back-pedaling from yet another controversy, the industry appears to be in a perpetual state of discovery.
