I recently did an experiment testing photosynthesis in soybean plants after simulated acid rain. We had three treatments one was a control which recieved no acid solution, a soil pH treatment in which the acidic solution was only added to the soil and a foliar pH treatment in which, only the leaves were sprayed with an acidic solution. We then are going to see which treatment had a greater effect. For my report I need to find three journal articles (primary literatue) that are relevant to the experiment and I am having some trouble finding anything of use to me. I was wondering if someone could help me find some articles.

Here are several articles that can be useful to you. You can get them online through your university library, Elsevier and/or and Science Direct.

Good luck with your experiments!
