Molecular characterization of livestock-associated ticks and tick-borne bacteria in Xinjiang, northwestern China

2025-10-01

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p> Background Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region represents a critical pastoral zone at the livestock–tick–human interface in northwestern China, yet molecular data on tick-borne pathogens in this region remain scarce. Methods Between 2017 and 2018, we collected 6,172 ticks from cattle, sheep, goats, horses, and dogs across 18 counties in Xinjiang. Tick species identification was performed...
