The results showed that there were very significant differences between 3 levels of in terms of their respective effects. The best combination of treatments deducted for cuttings from small plants was Ridomil-MZ 0. 8 g/L^-1+ Atonik 0. 15 mL/L^-1+ IBA 30 mg/L^-1, and for cuttings from large plants, Ridomil-MZ 0. 8 g/L^-1+ Atonik 0. 30 mL/L^-1+ IBA 30 mg/L^-1.
