Popis: Septoria tritici blotch (STB) ais one of the most damaging winter wheat diseases worldwide, presenting a significant threat to its yields. The causal STB agent, Zymoseptoria tritici, also presents a challenge to control due to its rapid adaptation to fungicides. This requires researchers to continuously monitor the pathogen and investigate and explore strategies to manage the spread of the disease and the development of resistance in the pathogen. Therefore, this study presents the current situation and describes changes in the sensitivity of Z. tritici isolates from Lithuania to quinone outside inhibitors (QoIs) and succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs) for the years 2019–2022. The isolates were tested at five different concentrations of two QoI fungicides (azoxystrobin and pyraclostrobin) and three SDHI fungicides (fluxapyroxad, benzovindiflupyr, and bixafen). During the test period, the EC50 values of the tested QoIs increased, while no clear changes were observed in the SDHIs. The most pronounced shift was observed for the active QoI substance pyraclostrobin. The distribution of the EC50 values of the SDHI fungicides showcased one isolate with an outstandingly high EC50 value of 2.6 mg L−1. The results of this study did not reveal any strong patterns of cross-resistance between the fungicides tested. However, a significant positive, moderate correlation (r = 0.55) was found between fluxapyroxad and benzovindiflupyr. Overall, the results of this study contribute to the understanding of the fungicide-resistance situation of Z. tritici in Lithuania and may complement management strategies for the pathogen and its fungicide resistance.
