Pesquisa do Estado de Minas Gerais (FAPEMIG) Empresa de Pesquisa Agropecu?ria de Minas Gerais (EPAMIG) Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento Cient?fico e Tecnol?gico (CNPq) Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior (CAPES) Objetivou-se com o trabalho verificar os teores foliares dos macronutrientes e o desenvolvimento das cultivares de cana-a??car 'RB72454', 'RB867515' e 'SP801816' em competi??o com popula??es de Brachiaria brizantha. Os tratamentos utilizados foram: 1) cultivar de cana-de-a??car 'RB72454' e popula??o de B. brizantha de 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 32, 40, 32, 64, 92, 88 e 112; 2) 'RB867515' e 0, 1, 4, 14, 10, 18, 28, 30, 36, 54, 52 e 72; 3) 'SP801816' e 0, 1, 3, 6, 14, 20, 24, 26, 26, 32, 46 e 56 plantas m-2. Aos 120 dias ap?s a emerg?ncia da cultura, foi quantificada a massa seca (MS) da parte a?rea da cana-de-a??car e da B. brizantha. Aos 290 dias ap?s a emerg?ncia (DAE), foram coletadas amostras das folhas +3 (terceira folha a partir do ?pice das plantas), nas quais foram avaliadas as concentra??es de nitrog?nio total, f?sforo, pot?ssio, magn?sio e c?lcio. Com o aumento da popula??o de B. brizantha, observou-se redu??o da MS somente na cultivar 'RB72454'. O aumento na popula??o de B. brizantha reduziu a concentra??o de f?sforo em todas as cultivares, nitrog?nio em 'RB72454' e 'SP801816', pot?ssio e magn?sio para 'RB72454'. Nas popula??es mais elevadas de B. brizantha, houve maior competi??o pelos nutrientes dispon?veis no meio, sendo o f?sforo o mais limitante. A cultivar 'RB72454' foi a menos competitiva pelos nutrientes no solo. As cultivares apresentaram redu??o m?dia de 76% na produtividade de colmos na densidade m?xima de B. brizantha. This trial aimed to verify foliar levels of macronutrients and development of sugarcane cultivars 'RB72454', 'RB867515' and 'SP801816' under competition with populations of Brachiaria brizantha. The field trial was installed where treatments were: 1) Sugarcane 'RB72454' and B. brizantha population of 0, 1, 3, 7, 15, 32, 40, 32, 64, 92, 88 e 112; 2) 'RB867515' e 0, 1, 4, 14, 10, 18, 28, 30, 36, 54, 52 e 72; 3) 'SP801816' e 0, 1, 3, 6, 14, 20, 24, 26, 26, 32, 46 e 56 plants m-2. At 120 days after crop emergence, the crop and weed shoot dry mass (MS) was analyzed. At 290 days, samples of the 3rd leaf were collected. From these samples, concentration of total nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, calcium and magnesium where measured. As the competition increased, a reduction in MS was observed only for 'RB72454'. Increases in population B. brizantha caused reduction in leaf phosphorus concentration for all varieties; nitrogen reduction for 'RB72454' and 'SP801816', as well as potassium and magnesium for 'RB72454'. There was higher competition for nutrients as B. brizantha population was increased, being phosphorus the more limiting nutrient for growth under competition. The variety 'RB72454' demonstrated lower competitive ability in relation to the other ones. All varieties presented average reduction of 76% in the yield in maximum density of B. brizantha.
