Summary:This study aimed to control different populations of Digitaria insularisby glyphosate herbicide, isolated and mixed, besides the combination of methods (chemical and mechanical) to manage resistant adult plants. Three experiments were conducted, one in pots which were maintained under non-controlled conditions and two under field conditions. In the experiment in pots, twelve populations of D. insularis were sprayed with isolated glyphosate (1.44 and 2.16 kg a.e. ha-1) and mixed (1.44 and 2.16 kg a.e. ha-1) with quizalofop-p tefuryl (0.12 kg i.a. ha-1). The treatment of 1.44 kg a.e. ha-1 of glyphosate plus 0.12 kg a.i. ha-1 of quizalofop was sufficient for adequate control (>95%) of all populations. Population 11 (area of grain production in Itumbiara, GO) was considered sensitive to glyphosate. Others populations were moderately sensitive or tolerant to the herbicide. In the field, the plants of D. insularis of one of the experiments were mowed and, in the other, there were not. Eight treatments with herbicides [isolated glyphosate (1.44 and 2.16 kg a.e. ha-1) and mixed (1.44 and 2.16 kg a.e. ha-1) with quizalofop-p-tefuryl at 0.12 kg a.i. ha-1), clethodim at 0.108 kg a.i. ha-1) or nicosulfuron at 0.06 kg a.i. ha-1)] were assessed, in combination with or without sequential application of the standard treatment, sprayed 15 days after the first application. The combination of the mechanic control with the application of glyphosate (2.16 and 1.44 kg a.e. ha-1) plus quizalofop-p-tefuryl (0.12 kg a.i. ha-1) or clethodim (0.108 kg a.i. ha-1), associated to the sequential application, was the most effective strategy for the management of adult plants of resistant D. insularis. Objetivou-se neste trabalho estudar o controle de diferentes populações de Digitaria insularis pelo herbicida glyphosate, isolado e em mistura, além da combinação de métodos (químico e mecânico) no manejo de plantas adultas resistentes. Três experimentos foram desenvolvidos: um em vasos mantidos em condição ambiente e dois em condição de campo. No experimento em vasos, 12 populações de D. insularis foram pulverizadas com glyphosate isolado (1,44 e 2,16 kg e.a. ha-1) e em mistura (1,44 e 2,16 kg e.a. ha-1) com quizalofop-p-tefuryl (0,12 kg i.a. ha-1). O tratamento de 1,44 kg e.a. ha-1 de glyphosate mais 0,12 kg i.a. ha-1 de quizalofop foi suficiente para o controle adequado (>95%) de todas as populações. A população 11 (área de produção de grãos em Itumbiara - GO) foi considerada sensível ao glyphosate, e as demais, medianamente sensíveis ou tolerantes ao herbicida. Em campo, as plantas de D. insularis de um dos experimentos foram roçadas e, no outro, não. Oito tratamentos com herbicidas [glyphosate isolado (1,44 e 2,16 kg e.a. ha-1)e em mistura (1,44 e 2,16 kg e.a. ha-1) com quizalofop-p-tefuryl a 0,12 kg i.a. ha-1, clethodim a 0,108 kg i.a. ha-1 ou nicosulfuron a 0,06 kg i.a. ha-1] foram avaliados, combinados com ou sem a aplicação sequencial de tratamento padrão, pulverizado 15 dias após a primeira a aplicação. A combinação do controle mecânico com a aplicação de glyphosate (2,16 e 1,44 kg e.a. ha-1) mais quizalofop-p-tefuryl (0,12 kg i.a. ha-1) ou clethodim (0,108 kg i.a. ha-1), associados à aplicação sequencial, foi a estratégia mais eficaz para o manejo de plantas adultas de D. insularis resistentes.
