Latex highlighting the citations in the Reference section using different background colors
I am using three different background colors to highlight edits I am doing against three different types of comments received for my submitted article to a journal. I am successful in highlighting the text and citations and references in main body of the paper. However, I was not successful in highlighting the citations in the Reference section. I would like to highlight them using same background color as in the text.

My present output: Highlights the citations in default yellow color that too by producing two white spaces.
My citations stored in seperate bib file as

Solution
I added an optional argument to \citecolor that allows you to specify how many lines each bibitem has
