Percent (%) mortality and mycoses values of Tropinota hirta adults after application of the fungal isolates obtained from T. hirta adults and soil samples in apple orchards. The conidial concentrations were applied to adults with airbrush at 1 × 107 spore/ml concentration. Mortality values were corrected using Abbott's formula (Abbott 1925). The different uppercase and lowercase letters indicated on the columns show the statistical difference in terms of mortality and mycosis among isolates, respectively. Bz isolates were isolated from T. hirta adults and AK isolates were obtained from soil samples. The isolates were compared using ANOVA followed by LSD post-hoc test. Bars show standard error. 0.01% Tween 80 was used as the control group
