Dollar spot, caused by Sclerotinia homoeocarpa, is one of the most significant diseases of cool-season turfgrass on golf courses. Resistance to the benzimidazole, dicarboximide, and succinate dehydrogenase inhibitor (SDHI) classes and reduced sensitivity to the sterol-demethylation inhibitor (DMI) in S. homoeocarpa populations have been widely reported in the United States. Moreover, the occurrence of S. homoeocarpa populations with multiple fungicide resistance (MFR) is a growing problem on golf courses. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of DMI, dicarboximide, and SDHI against a S. homoeocarpa population with MFR on a Connecticut golf course fairway from 2014 to 2016. Also, because the S. homoeocarpa population consisted of four different phenotypes with differing resistance profiles to benzimidazole, dicarboximide, and DMI, in vitro sensitivity assays were used to understand the dynamics of the MFR population in the presence and absence of fungicide selection pressures. Results indicated that boscalid fungicide (SDHI) was able to provide an acceptable control of the MFR dollar spot population. Propiconazole or iprodione application selected isolates with both DMI and dicarboximide resistance (DMI-R/Dicar-R). In the absence of fungicide selection pressures, the percent frequency of DMI-R/Dicar-R or DMI and benzimidazole resistance (DMI-R/Ben-R) isolates declined in the population. Out of the four phenotypes, the percent frequency of isolates with DMI, dicarboximide, and benzimidazole resistance (DMI-R/Dicar-R/Ben-R) was the lowest in the population regardless of fungicide selection pressures. Our first report of MFR population dynamics will help develop effective strategies for managing MFR and potentially delay the emergence of future resistant populations in S. homoeocarpa.
