Eyster HC. CATALASE ACTIVITY IN CHLOROPLAST PIGMENT DEFICIENT TYPES OF CORN.Plant Physiol. 1950 Oct;25(4):630–638.

OSKI VM, SMITH JHC. Chlorophyll formation in a mutant, white seedling-3. Arch Biochem Biophys. 1951 Nov;34(1):189–195.

Trumble, PhD. Effect of Nitrogen Fertilization on Aphis gossypii: Variation in Size, Color, and Reproduction. Journal of Economic Entomology. 2001 Feb;1(1):27-32.

These documents were initially really difficult to comprehend but they ended up being helpful in the process of forming our hypothesis and setup. We were not sure which variable to manipulate that would affect color of the corn, so these resources helped us understand the effects of fertilizer. These documents are really complex so we ended up getting a deeper understanding of genetics pertaining to corn.
