title: Next-generation biomass feedstocks for biofuel production.
abstract: The development of second-generation biofuels--those that do not rely on grain crops as inputs--will require a diverse set of feedstocks that can be grown sustainably and processed cost-effectively. Here we review the outlook and challenges for meeting hoped-for production targets for such biofuels in the United States.
