RESUMO

The objective of this study was to select plants tolerant to herbicide sulfentrazone,capable of remediate soil contaminated with this herbicide and to determine the minimum time that these plants should stay in remedying in the field before the sowing of species sensitive to herbicide. Due to this, three experiments were held. At first, sixteen species were previously selected and tested to verify its tolerance to the herbicide sulfentrazone and consequently its potential to phytoremediation. The species tested were: Arachis pintoi, Calopogonium mucunoides, Eleusine coracana, Sorghum bicolor x Sorghum sudanense, Crotalaria breviflora, Crotalaria juncea,Crotalaria spectabilis, Crotalaria ochroleuca, Cajanus cajan cv. Fava Larga, Cajanus cajan cv. IAPAR 43 (Drawf), Canavalia ensiformis, Dolichos lablab, Stizolobium deeringianum, Stizolobium aterrimum, Stizolobium cinereum and Rapahanus sativus.The species were cultivated under five doses of herbicide sulfentrazone (0, 200, 400, 800, and 1600 g ha-1). At this stage the following assessments were made: plantheight (cm) and phytotoxicity (%) 30 and 60 days after sowing (DAS); fresh biomass and dry roots (g) and fresh biomass of the aerial part (g) at 60 DAS. The plant species selected as potentially phytoremediator of herbicide sulfentrazone are C. juncea, C. ensiformes, C. cajan and C. canjan (dwarf) showing the least symptoms of phytotoxicity and presenting the highest rates of height and fresh biomass and dry. In the second experiment, to interfere which are able to remediate soils contaminated with this herbicide, these four species were cultivated under four doses of sulfentrazone (0, 200, 400, and 800 g ha-1), followed by bioassay in the same pot with the species bioindicators Pennisetum glaucum and Stizolobium deeringianum, which evaluated the plant height (cm) and phytotoxicity (%) at 30 DAS and at 60 DAS, and fresh biomass and the aerial part (g), at 60 DAS. When the species bioindicators P. Glaucum and S. deeringianum were cultivated after C. juncea, showed the least symptoms of phytotoxicity and the largest gains of height and biomass, indicating that C. juncea is a specie that presents the highest capacity of phytoremediation soils contaminated with the herbicide sulfentrazone. In the third experiment, C. juncea was submitted to different times of culture (25, 50, 75 and 100 days) with two levels of contamination (0 and 400 g ha-1) and then the bioassay with P. Glaucum was performed to determine the minimum time that specie should stay in the phytoremediation soil area before the specie susceptible to sulfentrazone be sown. The P. Glaucum when cultivated after C. juncea for a period of time of 50 days was able to grow and accumulate biomass normally, that is, their activities physiological werent prejudiced by the activity of herbicide sulfentrazone. The practice of phytoremediation, using the species C. juncea for 50 days, is effective to soils containing mean doses of 400 g ha-1 of herbicide sulfentrazone.
