Atrazine resistant and susceptible biotypes are described for Chenopodium strictum Roth. Between-biotype differences in morphology and chromosome number were not apparent. Features distinguishing C. strictum from closely related C. album, another species known to exhibit differential response to atrazine, are reviewed.
