Abstract
Objective of this work was to carry out a phytosociological study of weeds in areas cultivated with sweet pepperin no-tillage and conventional planting systems at Universidade Federal Rural do Semi-Arido (UFERSA). For each plating system, 60 days after transplanting, 32 samples were collected with a 0.50 m side square hollow, where the weeds were collected at ground level, separated by species, counted and taken to the greenhouse, until constant mass, for determination of dry matter mass. Based on these values, the following characteristics were determined: density, frequency, abundance, relative density, relative frequency, relative abundance, relative dry mass and index of relative importance value.18 species and 13 botanical families of weed were identified, being Poaceae family the most representative, followed by Amaranthaceae family. All tested species were present in the CPS, which had a density of 466.5 plants m-2. In the no-tillage planting system, 13 species with density of 79.12 plants m-2 occurred, being Phyllanthus tenellus and Commelina benghalensis the species with higher density. With respect to relative dry mass, Croton lobatus species stand out from the others, despite lower density, and the highes index of relative importance value was found for the species Lobatos croton, Phyllanthus tenellus and Commelina benghalensis with 14.13%, 14.02 % and 12.35%, respectively. It is possible to conclude that the no-tillage system changed the dynamics of the weed community, reducing the total density of the weed by 83.04% if compared to conventional plating system.
