Maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree of Steinernema nematodes based on ITS sequences. The evolutionary relationships were computed using the Hasegawa–Kishino–Yano model. The tree with the highest log likelihood (− 8485.52) is shown. Numbers at nodes represent bootstrap values higher than 70% based on 100 replications. A discrete gamma distribution was used to model evolutionary rate differences among sites (5 categories (+ G, parameter = 2.1835)). The tree is drawn to scale, with branch lengths measured in the number of substitutions per site. This analysis involved 30 nucleotide sequences. Codon positions included were 1st + 2nd + 3rd + Noncoding. There were a total of 1184 positions in the final dataset. Evolutionary analyses were conducted in MEGA X. The obtained isolates in this study are marked with star
