Determination of the critical period of weed control in corn using a thermal basis

Abstract: Field studies were conducted over 3 years in southeast Buenos Aires, Argentina, to determine the critical period of weed control in maize (Zea mays L.). The treatments consisted of two different periods of weed interference, a critical weed-free period, and a critical time of weed removal. The Gompertz and logistic equations were fitted to relative yields representing the critical weed-free and the critical time of weed removal, respectively. Accumulated thermal units were used to describe each period of weed-… Show more

“…On the other hand, at 75 DAT Pretilachlor fb with one hand weeding reduced the highest percentage of weed density and biomass, and Pretilachlor fb 2,4-D dimethyl amine and Pendimethalin fb 2,4-D dimethyl amine reduced the lowest weed density and biomass, respectively (Table 4).Weed density and biomass at earlier stage of crop growth are more critical than later stage. Several researchers (Kropff et al, 1993;Frantik, 1994;Bedmar et al, 1999) established the importance of time of emergence of the weeds. Generally, weeds that emerge simultaneously with the crop or shortly after the crop cause severe yields losses at very low densities.…”

“…Na avaliação de pré-colheita, os herbicidas aplicados no início do desenvolvimento da cultura apresentaram controle inferior de BRAPL em relação aos demais tratamentos (Tabela 1). Esta situação se deveu à emergência de novas plantas de BRAPL, o que se torna possível após a diminuição do efeito residual do herbicida (Bedmar et al, 1999). Entretanto, a emergência de plantas daninhas além do período crítico de competição não limita o crescimento da cultura (Singh et al, 1996); assim, o efeito satisfatório dos herbicidas no início do desenvolvimento das plantas é suficiente para que a cultura não tenha o rendimento de grãos afetado pelas plantas daninhas.…”

“…Estes efeitos acontecem devido às variações na qualidade da luz, que é alterada pelas folhas do dossel, e pode servir como um importante sinal entre as plantas da comunidade (Schimitt & Wulff, 1993). Dessa forma, a eliminação de plantas daninhas desde a emergência da cultura é importante para a diminuição dos seus efeitos sobre o rendimento de grãos da cultura (Bedmar et al, 1999). A tradicional indicação de que os efeitos das plantas daninhas somente passam a acontecer algumas semanas após a emergência da cultura pode não ser válida para todas as situações (Holt, 1995), principalmente em altos níveis de exploração do ambiente e rendimento de grãos.…”

“…In accumulated thermal units (ATU), it represents 222 to 416 ATU or approximately 15 to 30 DAE (Bedmar et al, 1999). Following this idea, it is noticed that at 14 DAA, the phytotoxicity levels ranged from 20 to 90% for the lowest and highest rate of Zapp Qi ® and Gramocil ® , respectively.…”
