“…Despite these advantages, the system has an important limitation, which is the common susceptibility of the two crops to some nematodes, especially Pratylenchus brachyurus, whose reproduction factor can be quite high in soybean and maize (Inomoto, 2011;Favoreto et al, 2019), and in numerous grass species, forage or not, grown in crop rotation, including plants of the genus Panicum and Urochloa (Inomoto et al, 2007;Dias-Arieira et al, 2009;Queiróz et al, 2014), and sorghum and millet (Inomoto et al, 2006). Added to these, the susceptibility to common weeds in the areas of soybean-maize succession, with emphasis on the sourgrass (Digitaria insularis) (Bellé et al, 2015;Matias et al, 2018), considered one of the main invaders in the soybean-maize system, due to resistance to herbicides (Pereira et al, 2017;Costa et al, 2018).…”
