Tick-borne infection in humans has been described in several countries. This is the first report of . in a woman who reported being bitten by ticks in Xingjiang, northwestern China. infection was confirmed by molecular detection in blood and urine of the patient, who presented clinical symptoms of severe edema, partial necrosis, and monocytosis. was also detected in ticks around the patient's residence. Infections of spotted fever group species should be included in the differential diagnosis from other tick-borne diseases.

This study presents a one-step multiplex reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method for the simultaneous detection of multiple viruses affecting melon crops. Viruses such as (WMV), (CMV), (ZYMV), (SqMV), (TMV), (PRSV), and (MYSV) pose a great threat to melons. The mixed infection of these viruses is the most common observation in the melon-growing fields.

Quaternary period geological events and climatic oscillations significantly affect the geographic structure and genetic diversity of species distribution in arid northwestern China. is a relict and endangered shrub that occurs primarily in arid areas of northwestern China. Based on variation patterns present at three cpDNA regions (K-I, L-F and V) and in one nDNA sequence (ITS1-ITS4) in 174 individuals representing 15 populations, the spatial genetic structure and demographic history of was examined across its entire geographic range.

Background: Most HLA association studies with NPC focus on Southern part of China. Thus, little is known about the genetic association of HLA with NPC in people from Northern China where the genetic background, environmental factors, and lifestyle are very different.
Methods: 132 NPC patients and 168 normal controls of Han ethnic in Xinjiang Province were genotyped for HLA-A, -B, -C, -DRB1, and -DQB1 using the PCR-sequence specific primer technique.
