To explore the mechanisms by which a population of Abutilon theophrasti develops resistance to S‐metolachlor.
Investigated metabolic genes and glutathione S‐transferases in Abutilon theophrasti population.
Conducted high‐performance liquid chromatography‐quadrupole time‐of‐flight‐mass spectrometry to assess metabolic efficiency.
Utilized RNA‐sequencing and quantitative polymerase chain reaction to identify candidate genes.
The resistant Abutilon theophrasti population showed higher levels of glutathione S‐transferases.
Metabolic efficiency of the resistant population to S‐metolachlor was greater than the susceptible population.
Cross‐resistance to acetochlor was observed, indicating broader herbicide resistance.
