He specialized in the study of economically important plants such as squashes, investigating their systematics and resistance to disease. == Early life and education == Whitaker was born August 14, 1904, in Monrovia, California.〔 ''Note: Some sources erroneously list his birth year as 1905.''〕 He grew up on a farm and worked his way through college, graduating from University of California, Davis in 1927 with a bachelor of science degree. Continuing his education under a DuPont Fellowship, he graduated from the University of Virginia (UVA) with a master's degree in 1929 and PhD in 1931. Both of those degrees were in biology with concentrations in genetics and cytology. While at UVA, he spent summers at the Blandy Experimental Farm.
