Sensibilidade do capim-capivara a herbicidas Sensitivity of West Indian Marsh Grass to herbicides

Dois experimentos foram conduzidos em casa de vegetação com o objetivo de identificar, através de curvas de dose-resposta, a sensibilidade de plantas jovens e perenizadas de capim-capivara a doses crescentes (0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 e 200% da dose recomendada para gramíneas perenes) de cyhalofop-butyl (315 g i.a. ha-1), imazapic + imazapyr (24,5 g e.a. ha-1 + 73,5 g e.a. ha-1), glyphosate (2.160 g e.a. ha-1) e amônio glufosinate (900 g i.a. ha-1). O experimento 1 foi conduzido de janeiro a março de 2010, e o experimento 2, de janeiro de 2010 a janeiro de 2011. Plantas jovens apresentaram maior sensibilidade aos herbicidas amônio glufosinate e cyhalofop-butyl, entretanto, a morte das plantas ocorreu somente quando tratadas com glyphosate e a mistura formulada de imazapic + imazapyr. Em plantas perenizadas, os herbicidas não proporcionaram controle satisfatório.<br>Two experiments were conducted under greenhouse conditions to identify, based on dose-response curves, the sensitivity of young and perennial plants of West Indian Marsh grass to increasing doses (0, 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175 and 200% of the recommended dose for perennial grasses) of cyhalofop butyl (315gc.p. ha-1), imazapic + imazapyr (24.5gc.p. ha-1 + 73.5gc.p. ha-1), glyphosate (2,160gc.p. ha-1) and ammonium glufosinate (900gc.p. ha-1). Experiment I was conducted from January to March 2010 and Experiment II, from January 2010 to January 2011. Young plants showed higher sensitivity to ammonium glufosinate and cyhalofop butyl; however, death occurred only when the plants were treated with glyphosate and a formulated mixture of Imazapic + Imazapyr. The herbicides did not provide satisfactory control against the perennial plants
