To confirm this hypothesis, this study aimed to investigate the tolerance of different sugarcane cultivars to chemical eradication, at different glyphosate rates. The experiment was conducted in a randomized block design in a split-plot scheme, with four replications. The sugarcane cultivars (IACSP94-2094, IACSP94-2101, IACSP93-3046, IACSP94 4004, IAC86-2480, and RB72454) were allocated in plots and the glyphosate rates (0, 1,440, 2,160, 2,880, 3,600, and 4,320 g ha-1), in the sub plots. The traits evaluated were signs of poisoning symptoms; total chlorophyll content, plant height, percentage of dead tillers, and dry weight of the plants. At 45 days after application (DAA), the glyphosate rate of 1,440 g a.e. ha-1 eradicated the cultivars IACSP94-2094 and IACSP94-2101, as well as RB72454 with application of 2,160 g a.e. ha 1. Application of glyphosate 2,880 g a.e. ha-1 eradicated both IACSP93-3046 and IAC86-2480 and glyphosate 3,600 g a.e. ha-1 eradicated IACSP94-4004. The most tolerant cultivar was IACSP94 4004, eradicated at the rate of 3,600 g. a.e. ha-1. This confirms the hypothesis that knowing the cultivar's tolerance leads, in practice, to a smaller amount of herbicide applied to the environment, which also reduces production costs. O conhecimento da dose m¨ªnima de glyphosate utilizada na erradica o das soqueiras de cana-de-a ¨²car traz como benef¨ªcio a redu o na quantidade do herbicida. Para comprovar essa hip¨®tese, o objetivo desta pesquisa foi estudar a tolerancia das soqueiras de cultivares de cana-de-a ¨²car ¨¤ erradica o qu¨ªmica, a partir de diferentes doses de glyphosate. O experimento foi instalado em delineamento de blocos casualizados, arranjado em esquema de parcelas subdivididas com quatro repeti es. Nas parcelas foram alocadas os cultivares de cana-de-a ¨²car RB72454, IACSP86-2480, IACSP93-3046, IACSP94-2094, IACSP94-2101 e IACSP94-4004 e, nas subparcelas, as doses de glyphosate: 0; 1.440; 2.160; 2.880; 3.600 e 4.320 g e.a. ha-1. As caracter¨ªsticas avaliadas foram sintomas visuais de intoxica o, teor de clorofila total, altura de plantas, porcentagem de perfilhos mortos e massa seca de plantas. Aos 45 dias ap¨®s a aplica o (DAA), a partir de 1.440 g e.a. ha 1 do glyphosate, os cultivares IACSP94-2094 e IACSP94-2101 foram erradicadas, bem como a RB72454 com aplica o de 2.160 g e.a. ha-1. Na utiliza o do glyphosate a 2.880 g e.a. ha-1 foram erradicadas a IACSP93-3046 e IAC86-2480.
