Together, these findings indicate that amicarbazone is a potent molecule and offers a more effective alternative to atrazine than metribuzin for managing at least some NTS atrazine-resistant A. tuberculatus populations. However, tank-mixing amicarbazone with metribuzin can provide even more effective control than either herbicide alone. Furthermore, substrate recognition promiscuity could possibly endow AtuGSTF2 with the potential for broader metabolic cross-resistance. © 2026 The Author(s).
