The weeds if not properly controlled have great ability to settle in agricultural systems, affecting crop production. The objective of this work was to determine the interference and level of economic damage in different density of crop. The treatments were composed of canola hybrids (Hyola 50, Hyola 76, Hyola 433, Hyola 571 CL, Hyola 575 CL and Diamond) and twelve infestation turnip density in crop. The variables evaluated to estimate the competitiveness of the hybrids were plant density, leaf area, soil cover and dry mass of the turnip. Grain yield, canola price, herbicide efficiency, and control cost were used to determine the weed's level of economic damage on the crop. The canola hybrids Hyola 575 CL, Hyola 50, Hyola 76 and Hyola 571 CL are more competitive with turnip. The values of economic damage levels range from 2.86 to 5.95, 2.43 to 5.05, 2.22 to 5.43 and 2.99 to 6.22 turnip plants m-2 for hybrids Hyola 50, Hyola 76, Hyola 571 CL and Hyola 575 CL, respectively, as a function of simulated variables. The increased grain yield, canola price, herbicide efficiency and lower control costs reduce the level of economic damage, justifying the adoption of control.
As plantas daninhas Digitaria ciliaris (milhã) e Ipomoea indivisa (corda-de-viola) destacam-se por ocasionarem elevados prejuízos à cultura do milho. Objetivou-se com o trabalho avaliar a interação competitiva relativa entre híbridos de milho na presença de milhã e corda-de-viola, por meio de experimentos em série substitutiva. Os experimentos foram instalados em delineamento experimental de blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. Primeiramente, tanto para os híbridos de milho (Agroeste - AS 1551 PRO 2, Morgan - MG 300 PW, Nidera - NS 92 PRO and Syngenta - Velox TL) quanto para as plantas daninhas (milhã e corda-de-viola) determinou-se a densidade de plantas em que a produção final se tornou constante (20 plantas vaso-1 ou 463 plantas m-2). Posteriormente foram instalados oito experimentos para avaliar a habilidade competitiva dos híbridos de milho com as plantas daninhas, ambos conduzidos em série de substituição, nas diferentes combinações das espécies, variando-se as proporções relativas (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75 e 0:100%) de plantas vaso-1 (20:0; 15:5; 10:10; 5:15 e 0:20). A análise da competitividade das espécies foi efetuada por meio de diagramas aplicados a experimentos substitutivos e também pelos índices de competitividade relativa. Aos 50 dias após a emergência das espécies efetuou-se a aferição da área foliar e da massa seca da parte aérea das plantas. Os híbridos de milho e as plantas daninhas foram afetados negativamente, sendo a competição interespecífica a mais prejudicial para as espécies. A cultura apresentou os maiores índices de competitividade, de crescimento, de dominância e de agressividade. Ao se comparar as espécies entre si, o milho foi mais competitivo do que as plantas daninhas.
As plantas daninhas ocasionam efeitos negativos na produtividade e na qualidade dos grãos da cultura do trigo quando não controladas de modo eficiente. Assim sendo, objetivou-se com os trabalhos avaliar a seletividade e a eficácia de herbicidas aplicados para o manejo de plantas daninhas infestante da cultivar de trigo TBIO Sinuelo. Foram instalados dois experimentos, um para avaliar a seletividade e outro a eficácia de herbicidas aplicados em trigo, em blocos casualizados, com quatro repetições. Os tratamentos testados foram: iodosulfuron, pyroxsulam, metsulfuron-methyl, 2,4-D, clodinafope-propargil, [bentazon + imazamox], saflufenacil, bentazon, carfentrazone-ethyl, imazamox, pendimethalin, [sulfentrazone + diuron], mais duas testemunhas uma capinada e outra infestada. Os herbicidas que ocasionaram as maiores injúrias ao trigo foram o imazamox e a mistura comercial de [bentazon + imazamox] com fitotoxicidade próxima a 50%. A aplicação da mistura comercial de [sulfentrazone + diuron] demonstrou a maior produtividade de grãos do trigo. O uso de clodinafope-propargil e pyroxsulam apresentaram os melhores controles de Lolium multiflorum, com 100 e 98,25%, aos 21 dias após a aplicação dos tratamentos, respectivamente. Ocorreu controle acima de 90% de Raphanus raphanistrum com uso de iodosulfuron, pyroxsulam, metsulfuron-methyl, 2,4-D, [bentazon + imazamox], saflufenacil, bentazon e carfentrazone. O clodinafope-propargil demonstra o maior controle para o azevém e o iodosulfuron-ethyl, pyroxsulam, metsulfurom-metílico, 2,4-D, saflufenacil e carfentrazone para o nabo. O pyroxsulam foi o tratamento que demonstrou, nos dois experimentos, os melhores resultados para os componentes da produção, especialmente para a produtividade da cultura.
This study aimed to assess the interference and threshold level (TL) of Sida rhombifolia, the arrowleaf sida, competing with different soybean cultivars. The treatments comprised different soybean cultivars (NS 6909, NA 5909, DM 5958, Brasmax ELITE, Brasmax LANÇA, and SYN 13561) and densities of arrowleaf sida plants per square meter (m-2) (0, 2, 3, 4, 9, 15, 16, 23, 22, and 58; 0, 2, 3, 3, 6, 6, 10, 11, 18, and 47; 0, 3, 4, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, and 24; 0, 1, 4, 6, 12, 18, 19, 31, 44, and 50; 0, 4, 5, 6, 9, 13, 17, 20, 20, and 47; 0, 2, 3, 5, 9, 11, 15, 18, 29, and 30, respectively) for each cultivar. Cultivars NS 6909, NA 5909, and Brasmax Lança were more competitive than DM 5958, Brasmax Elite, and SYN 13561. The TL values varied from 0.55 to 0.95 plants m-2 for cultivars NS 6909, NA 5909, and Brasmax Lança, which exhibited greater competitiveness with arrowleaf sida. The lowest values of TL varied from 0.26 to 0.61 plants m-2 for cultivars DM 5958, Brasmax Elite, and SYN 13561, which had less competitiveness with weed. Highlights The rectangular hyperbola model adequately estimates the grain yield losses of soybean cultivars. The density of arrowleaf sida plants was the variable that best fitted the rectangular hyperbola model. Soybean cultivars NS 6909 IPRO, NA 5909 RG, and Brasmax Lança IPRO are the most competitive in the presence of arrowleaf sida. The levels of economic damage decrease with the increase in grain yield, in the soybean price, with the reduction in the cost of controlling arrowleaf sida and the herbicide efficiency.
The arrow-leaf sida (Sida rhombifolia), in addition to competing with soybeans, which causes productivity losses, is also host to the whitefly, which transmits viruses. The aim was to evaluate the competitive ability of soybean cultivars in the presence of an arrow-leaf sida biotype, with different proportions of plants in the association. The experiments were conducted in a completely randomized design, with four replications. Tested competitors included arrow-leaf sida with the four soybean cultivars in proportions crop:weed of 100:0; 75:25; 50:50; 25:75; and 0:100. Competitiveness analysis was carried out using diagrams applied to replacement series experiments in addition to the relative competitiveness indices. At 50 days after the emergence of the species, the variables height, diameter, leaf area, and dry mass of shoots were evaluated. Competition occurred between soybean cultivars in the presence of arrow-leaf sida, regardless of the plant proportion, causing reductions in all variables evaluated. Interspecific competition causes greater damage to al variables studied than intraspecific competition. There was competition for the same resources between soybean and arrow-leaf sida.
The use of allelopathy emerges as an alternative method for weed management in crops, especially in small vegetable producing properties. Thus, the objective of this work was to identify possible allelopathic effects of aqueous extracts of the weeds Cyperus difformis L. (small-flowered nutsedge), Commelina benghalensis L. (benghal dayflower) and Galinsoga parviflora Cav. (gallant soldier) on seed germination and seedling growth of Lactuca sativa L. (lettuce) and Lycopersicum esculentum L. (tomato). Two experiments were carried out in a completely randomized design with five replications, the first with lettuce seeds and the second with tomato seeds submitted to germination in five concentrations of weeds aqueous extracts (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%). All treatments with aqueous extracts of the three species, at different concentrations, caused a reduction in lettuce and tomato root length. There was a reduction in most of the evaluated variables, and seed germination of the crops had the lowest influence of the extracts. The weeds benghal dayflower, small-flowered nutsedge and gallant soldier showed allelopathic potential on lettuce and tomato crops. This potential allelopathic effect is directly related to the concentration and type of extract from the plant species. In general, it can be noted that the greatest allelopathic effect occurred with the use of small-flowered nutsedge extract, followed by gallant soldier and benghal dayflower. Highlighted Conclusions 1. Weeds C. benghalensis, C. difformis and G. parviflora show allelopathic potential on the growth of L. sativa and L. esculentum. 2. Highest allelopathic effect is caused by the extract of C. difformis, followed by G. parviflora and C. benghalensis. 3. The potential allelopathic effect of weeds is directly related to the plant species used, as well as to the concentration of the aqueous extract present in the environment.
The increase in flower cultivation in recent years has been reflecting the higher incidence of soil pathogens that can cause serious problems. This study aimed to evaluate the biological control of Fusarium wilt in gerbera with Trichoderma asperellum. The evaluated treatments were: T1) Control, only sterile substrate; T2) Substrate + Fusarium oxysporum; T3) Substrate + Fusarium oxysporum + Trichoderma asperellum; and T4) Substrate + Trichoderma asperellum. For this, the pathogen was isolated from gerbera with disease symptoms and, subsequently, it was identified according to morphological characters. Furthermore, the degree of antagonism of T. asperellum against F. oxysporum was evaluated through the culture pairing test. For greenhouse evaluations, commercial autoclaved substrate was used and infested with corn grains infected by the pathogen. Morphological identification confirmed the pathogen species as Fusarium oxysporum. In the culture pairing test, it was found that T. asperellum did not present a high degree of antagonism. The plants cultivated on substrate infested by the pathogen had no visible symptoms of wilt, but the substrate infestation with the pathogen provided lower values of fresh and dry mass of shoots and roots. The treatment with T. asperellum obtained higher values of fresh and dry mass of both shoots and roots, and also more vigorous inflorescences in relation to the plants treated with the pathogen
