Fluopicolide has been used to control the disease; however, reduced efficacy of the fungicide was observed in Georgia. P. capsici isolates were collected from commercial vegetable fields in Georgia in 2018 and 2019 to determine sensitivity to fluopicolide, which were phenotyped to have 43.1% of the isolates as resistant. The fitness of resistant (R) and sensitive (S) isolates was assessed through mycelial growth and sporulation assays exposed to the fungicide (0 or 50 µg/ml). Fluopicolide did not reduce mycelial growth, sporangial production, and zoospore germination of the R isolates. In the absence of fluopicolide, there was no significant difference between the R and S isolates in sporangial production but mycelial growth and zoospore germination of the R isolates was greater than the S isolates (P = 0.01 and 0.001, respectively). The R isolates had an ability similar to that of the S isolates to induce disease on Aristotle bell pepper, and most of the R and S isolates caused the same level of disease on Paladin. Inoculating squash fruit using different RS ratios and recovering R and S isolates after five cycles of inoculation resulted in similar trends in changes of R versus S isolate ratios. Overall, it appeared that fitness and competitive ability of the R isolates were not reduced compared with the S isolates. This is the first report of the occurrence of field isolates of P. capsici resistant to fluopicolide in the world. The results have significant implications in providing guidance for growers to avoid or limit use of this fungicide in vegetable production.Common morning-glory (Ipomoea purpurea (L.) Roth, Convolvulaceae), an annual herbaceous vine native to South America, was first recorded to be cultivated in China in 1890, and si
