ABSTRACT The objective of this paper was to characterize the phytosociology of weeds in function of different types of growth of common bean cultivars in the North of Minas Gerais. The study was conducted in the experimental area, located in the municipality of Janaúba, MG. The treatments consisted of eight commercial cultivars of common beans with different types of growth. The design was done in randomized blocks, with three replications. The soil preparation was conventional and the planting was done in June, with manual seeders, with a 0.5 m spacing between rows. The phytosociological survey was performed in two phases of bean cultivation, in stages V3 and R8. The method used was the square inventory one, with a 0.25 m2 frame, randomly released once in each plot. Samples of each square were identified and quantified by family, genus and species, and the sampled plants were collected with their complete structure. Next, the material was sent to a drying greenhouse with forced air circulation at 65 oC for 72 hours, for drying and determination of weight of dry matter. We also estimated the Relative Frequency, Relative Density and Relative Abundance to determine the importance value index and similarity index. At the V3 stage, the species Sorghum halepense, Brachiaria plantaginea and Boerhavia diffusa had higher importance value indexes. At the R8 stage, the Amaranthus viridis specie showed higher importance value index and dry matter. In more prostrate cultivars, the weeds present lower importance value indexes at the R8 stage.
