Neste estudo, foram avaliados os danos causados por doenças fúngicas no arroz cultivado sob condição de várzea no Estado do Tocantins. O delineamento experimental foi o de blocos casualizados com quatro repetições em esquema fatorial 26 (genótipos de arroz irrigado) × 2 (aplicação ou não de fungicidas). As aplicações de fungicidas foram realizadas aos 35 dias após a semeadura (tiofanato metílico; 0,5 L ha-1) nos estádios de emborrachamento (trifloxistrobina + propiconazole; 0,6 L ha-1) e com 5% das panículas emitidas (trifloxistrobina + propiconazole; 0,6 L ha-1 + tebuconazole; 0,75 L ha-1). As variáveis avaliadas foram: severidades da brusone nas folhas e nas panículas, mancha-parda nas folhas, mancha dos grãos, massa de cem sementes e produtividade. O tratamento com fungicida reduziu, em média, a severidade da brusone nas folhas em 69% e em 54% a brusone nas panículas. Não houve diferença estatística entre os tratamentos com e sem fungicida na severidade da mancha parda; porém alguns genótipos diferiram estatisticamente entre eles. Nas plantas tratadas com fungicidas, houve um acréscimo médio de 0,52 g (17,6%) na massa de cem sementes e de 1000 kg ha-1 na produtividade (12,6%). Os valores máximos obtidos na massa de cem sementes e na produtividade foram, respectivamente, de 3,2 g e 9270 kg ha-1.
This study aimed to evaluate the damages caused by the fungal diseases in rice production under conditions of lowland at the State of Tocantins. The experimental design was a randomized blocks with four replications, in a factorial scheme of 26 (genotypes of irrigated rice) x 2 (plots treated or untreated with fungicides). The fungicide treatment consisted of three applications, the first one was done 35 days after planting with thiophanate methyl (0.5 L ha-1), the second application was done in the booting stage of rice with trifloxystrobin + propiconazole (0.6 L ha -1) and the third application was done with 5% of panicles issued with trifloxystrobin + propiconazole (0.6 L ha-1) + tebuconazole (0.75 L ha-1). The following evaluations were performed: leaf and panicle blast severity, brown-spot severity, grains spots, 100 seed mass, and productivity. The fungicide treatments decreased around 69% the blast severity on leaves and 54% on panicles of most genotypes. There was not any statistical difference in the treatment with or without fungicide for brown-spot, however there was statistical difference among the genotypes. In plants treated with fungicides there was an increase of 0.52 g (17.6%) in the mass of 100 seeds and 1000 kg ha-1 in the productivity (12.6%). The maximum values obtained in 100 seeds mass and yield were 3.19 g and 9270 kg ha-1, respectively.
