^*Plants grown on this soil were monthly sprayed with the systemic fungicide Enovit metil®^* at the dose of 1 g.l^-1 and 2 liters.squaremeter^-1 to simulate the typical commercial management of the Ranunculus cultivation in the grower farms.
^**Same letters in each row (capital letters) and in each column (low case letters) indicate that the compared data by row or by column do not differ statistically among them for P = 0.05 according to the Student-Newman-Keuls test. Data have been transformed in arcsin before the statistical analysis.
