In Fields 1 and 2, yield values (kg of commercial fruit per tree) were higher (P < 0.05) compared with the untreated control in plots treated with fungicides that provided percentages of affected leaves under 50%, (Fig. 3 and Fig. 4). Exceptionally, trees treated with thiophanate-methyl showed high percentages of affected leaves associated to high yield values in both fields (Fig. 3 and Fig. 4). Late disease onset in Field 2 (Fig. 2) influenced yield results which resulted higher for all plots compared with those obtained in Field 1
