Conteúdo:	Knowledge of weed community structure in agricultural systems is important for sustainable management, especially for evaluating the effects of different herbicides on soybean–corn succession crops. This study evaluated, over two crop seasons, weed community structure in response to chemical weed management strategies for soybean–corn succession in Brazil’s Triângulo Mineiro region. Phytosociological surveys of the weed community were conducted during harvest periods throughout the experimental phase, with referenced data for generating spatial distribution maps of biomass and density of the main present species. The survey identified 33 weed species, predominantly from the Poaceae and Asteraceae families. Regardless of the management system, the total weed biomass was lower in corn crops compared to soybean crops. In management systems using six different herbicides, the IVI of Commelina benghalensis was the lowest due to greater diversification of herbicide mechanisms of action. The results demonstrate that chemical weed management strategies strongly influence weed community structure, with significant effects on weed community structure and evenness in intensive agricultural regions. These changes also have implications for resistance management.
