Pepper growers in Georgia have reported multiple outbreaks of Choanephora rot in summer (2025), despite the use of standard fungicide programs. Most of the labeled fungicides in pepper are ineffective in reducing the infection under field conditions. Information is limited in terms of the effectiveness of fungicides on Choanephora spp.. Based on our experience in squash where this pathogen occurs sporadically, some of the fungicides in FRAC 3 and FRAC 11 should be effective. However, in pepper, the current scenario seems to be different. We hypothesize that either we are dealing with a new species or fungicide-resistant populations.
