Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.) is a widely utilized aromatic plant, with the economic value of its essential oil (EO) largely dependent on its aroma. This study investigated the differences in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) within the EOs of three species of lavender (H70-1, French blue, Taikong blue) in Ili region from 2019 to 2023 with the combination of sensory evaluation, gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS), and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The EO from Taikong blue lavender exhibited greater stability in VOC composition compared to the other two varieties. Orthogonal Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (OPLS-DA) effectively distinguished the aromas of the three EOs aroma. Combining odor activity value (OAV) and variable importance in projection (VIP) values identified five VOCs crucial for discriminating among the three lavender EO types. This study provides theoretical support for the cultivation and commercialization of lavender as an industrial crop, as well as for quality control of EO production in the Ili region.

Unlabelled: Benign Acute Childhood Myositis (BACM) is a transient, self-limiting muscular condition that typically follows viral infections, especially influenza. The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted the circulation of respiratory viruses, altering the epidemiology of related post-infectious complications. This study investigates trends in BACM incidence, clinical features, and viral etiology before and after the pandemic.

Artificial reservoirs in arid regions provide unique ecological environments for studying the spatial and functional dynamics of plankton communities under the combined stressors of climate change and anthropogenic activities. This study conducted a systematic investigation of the phytoplankton community structure and its environmental drivers in 17 artificial reservoirs in the Ili region of Xinjiang in August and October 2024. The Ili region is located in the temperate continental arid zone of northwestern China.

Respiratory fistulas remain clinically challenging in endoscopic treatment due to the absence of convenient non-compressive sealing materials. Here, we developed an in situ self-fused powder adhesive (PP powder) to address this limitation. This material integrates the adaptive conformability of hydrogel microparticles with the pressure-resistant sealing capability of bulk hydrogels via water-triggered self-assembly.

Wilsonomyces carpophilus is capable of causing shot-hole disease drupe fruit trees globally, severely affecting plant health and fruit quality, and posing a major threat to agriculture and forestry under climate change conditions. During 2021-2024, we conducted extensive field surveys in a total of 90 sample plots in the wild apricot distribution area of Ili, Xinjiang, China, based on different factors such as tree age, slope orientation, elevation, stand and climatic conditions.Pathogenic fungi were isolated and characterized through morphological and molecular approaches.

To understand the species composition and distribution patterns of alien invasive plants within the Ili River Valley region, we conducted field investigations and specimen collections from 2022 to 2024 using route survey methods. Combined with digital herbarium data and literature review, we clarified the species composition of invasive alien plants in this region and analyzed their floristic geographic elements, life forms, origins, invasion pathways, invasion grades, and distribution patterns. There were 58 invasive plant species in the region, belonging to 38 genera and 18 families.
