The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Experimental Station of the Universidade Federal de Tocantins, Gurupi-TO Campus. The experimental design was completely randomized in a factorial 2 x 2 x 4 with four replications. The treatments consisted of two rice cultivars under two water conditions and four densities. At 57 days after emergence, were evaluated in rice cultivars and weed S. verticillata leaf area, dry weight of roots and shoots and total concentration and depth of roots. Was also evaluated in rice cultivars, plant height and number of tillers. Water stress caused a reduction in leaf area, the concentration of roots and vegetative components of dry matter (APDM, and MSR MST) of rice cultivars and Jatoba Catet o and weed S. verticillata. The competition established by the presence of the weed provided reduction of all vegetative components (MSPA, and MSR MST) of cultivars and Jatoba Catet o. It also decreased the number of tillers, the concentration of roots and leaf area. At the highest level of weed competition with rice cultivars, a greater decrease in vegetative components and leaf area of culture, regardless of water conditions. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar a capacidade competitiva de dois cultivares de arroz de terras altas tolerantes ¨¤ seca, cultivados em conviv¨ºncia com a planta daninha S. verticillata, sob as condi es de aus¨ºncia e presen a de estresse h¨ªdrico. O experimento foi instalado em casa de vegeta o, na Esta o Experimental da Universidade Federal do Tocantins, Campus Gurupi-TO. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi o inteiramente casualizado, em esquema fatorial 2 x 2 x 4, com quatro repeti es. Os tratamentos foram constitu¨ªdos de dois cultivares de arroz, sob duas condi es h¨ªdricas e quatro densidades. Aos 57 dias ap¨®s a emerg¨ºncia, foram avaliados nos cultivares de arroz e na planta daninha S. verticillata: ¨¢rea foliar, mat¨¦ria seca das ra¨ªzes e da parte a¨¦rea e total, concentra o e profundidade de ra¨ªzes. Tamb¨¦m foi avaliada, nos cultivares de arroz, a altura de plantas e o n¨²mero de perfilhos. O estresse h¨ªdrico promoveu redu o da ¨¢rea foliar, da concentra o de ra¨ªzes e da mat¨¦ria seca dos componentes vegetativos (MSPA, MSR e MST) dos cultivares de arroz Jatob¨¢ e Catet o e da planta daninha S. verticillata.
