Atrazine-resistant and susceptible horseweed biotypes do not differ significantly in carbon dioxide assimilation rate.
Atrazine-resistant horseweed chloroplast Hill reaction shows different temperature dependence from susceptible horseweed.
Atrazine-resistant horseweed thylakoid membranes contain less polar lipid and more unsaturated fatty acids than susceptible horseweed.
Atrazine-resistant horseweed has reduced xanthophyll-cycle activity, limited non-photochemical and photochemical quenching capacity, and increased photosensitivity and photoinhibition susceptibility.
Atrazine-resistant horseweed shows better adaptation at low temperature but enhanced susceptibility to high-temperature stress.
