Mefenpyr-diethyl is a safener used for protection of cereal plants under applications of ACCase and ALS inhibitor herbicides. Current studies are describing safeners using a new approach, relating these products to stimulation action on plants. The objective of this work was to evaluate the stimulation action of mefenpyr-diethyl on soybean, wheat, and signal grass plants. The experiment was conducted in a greenhouse, under a completely randomized design, with four replications, in two seasons. Mefenpyr-diethyl (50 g a.i. ha⁻¹) was applied on soybean plants (at V4 stage), and wheat and signal grass plants (both with 15 cm height). The variables evaluated were plant height, dry matter, and lipid content of the three species, and number of tillers of wheat and signal grass plants. The application of mefenpyr-diethyl in the first season increased the number of tillers of wheat and height of soybean plants. The soybean presented 24 and 14% more dry matter than the control in the first and second season, respectively, and 0.5% more lipid content in plants treated with mefenpyr-diethyl. These results show the stimulation action of mefenpyr-diethyl on wheat and soybean plants, denoting its potential for growth promotion and indicating the need for studies with this approach. No effect was found for the signal grass plants.
