What does the presence of blue color means in variegated leaf experiment of photosynthesis?

By blue color I assume you mean an added dye that shows how some parts of the leaf can photosynthesize and others not. The easiest of these experiments is to place the leaf in boiling ethanol (alcohol) and when drained of colour spread out on a flat surface. Soak the leaf in iodine and the green parts will turn blue/black and the non green parts will stay the yellowish brown colour of iodine. The green parts contain starch (a more compact form of glucose) which makes iodine turn blue/black. The blue/black is what will show starch is present.
