Abstract
Background: Non-typhoidal Salmonella (NTS) causes significant illness worldwide, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. Poor sanitation, limited healthcare, and rising antimicrobial resistance (AMR) worsen its impact on children under five. This study estimated the incidence and described AMR patterns of NTS among children under five in(...)

Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by begomoviruses such as African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) and East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV), poses a threat to food security in sub-Saharan Africa. Conventional PCR assays often fail to detect viral strains in symptomatic plants due to high genetic variability and recombination. In this study(...)

Sweet stalk sorghum is grown in Burkina Faso primarily for its grain, forage, and sugar-rich stalks. However, its productivity is heavily reliant on rainfall, and the variability in annual precipitation significantly limits its contribution to household food security. In this context, identifying droughttolerant genotypes with stable performan(...)

Evaluation of the Agronomic Performance of Cyperus Esculentus L. Genotypes Grown in West Africa
Nogueba Abraham KOMBELEME, Koussao SOME, Jaques OUEDRAOGO, Armel ROUAMBA2, Pauline BATIONO/KANDO
Tiger nut (Cyperus esculentus L.) is a cash crop that is very rich in nutrients. Knowledge of the agronomic performance of genotypes cultivated for broad adaptation in growing environments is necessary. The objective of this study was to identify high-performance genotypes in Burkina Faso. Thus, 42 genotypes were evaluated using an Alpha Latti(...)

Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is a vector-borne disease primarily caused by Leishmania major in Burkina
Faso. The nasal location is atypical, and clinical forms are increasingly atypical in endemic areas. The
present report describes a case of atypical CL in a 13-year-old girl in Burkina Faso. The observed case
presented with a skin lesio(...)
