It breeds in China. The breeding area is not complete, but scattered, which is from the northeast of Neimenggu grassland to the sand land of Hulunbeier. This breeding areas are isolated by Daxing’an Mountain, which are Neimeng, Songnen Plain and Kerqin sand land. The total area is about 7810 km2. The estimated total number of Great Bustands in the Northeast area of China is 377 birds.展开更多

Notably, pathogenic variants are not limited to single-nucleotide variants. It has become apparent that human diseases can also be caused by copy number variations （CNVs）, especially patient- specific novel CNVs （lafrate et al., 2004; Sebat et al., 2004; Redon et al., 2006; LuDski, 2007; Zhan~ et al.. 2009： Wu et al.. 2015）.展开更多
