Phylogenetic analysis of entomopathogenic Metarhizium isolates obtained from Tropinota hirta adults (Bz-3) and soil samples (AK-4, AK-5, AK-6, AK-7, AK-8, AK-9, AK-11, AK-12, AK-13, AK-15 and AK-16) collected from apple orchards. The neighbor-joining (N-J) tree was generated using the concatenated partial sequences of β-tubulin and rpb1 gene regions. The phylogram was generated using MEGA 11.0.10 with p-distance model, a partial deletion of missing data and 1.000 bootstrap pseudoreplicates (Tamura et al. 2021). Bootstrap values of 70% and above are indicated next to the nodes. The isolates obtained from this study were indicated with black triangle. The scale at the bottom of the phylogram represents genetic distances in nucleotide substitutions per site
