Copulas approach for modeling the stochastic dependence of three physico- chemical components of groundwater in the province of Sissili (Burkina Faso)
Fabrice Ouoba, Vini Yves Bernadin Loyara, Sibiri Narcisse Dolemweogo and Diakarya Barro
This study aims to model the stochastic dependence between potassium (K+), iron (F e2+), and ammonium (N H+4 ) concentrations in groundwater from the
Sissili province in Burkina Faso. To achieve this, we rely on the Student, Frank, and H ¨usler–Reiss copulas to capture the full range of hydro-geochemical dependence structures. This statistica(...)

Anti-biofilm, anti-quorum sensing potential, cytotoxicity, and UPLC-UV/DAD-MS/MS/QTOF profiling of Prosopis Africana (Guill. & Perr.) Taub. leaves and stems extracts: benefits of a traditional medicine in dental care
Bance Alimata, Rouamba Ablassé, Compaoré Moussa, Compaoré Eli, Kabré W.M.E Leila, Ouedraogo Noufou, Hay A. Emmanuelle, Kiendrebeogo Martin & Dijoux-Franca Marie-Geneviève
Background
Prosopis africana is traditionally used in folk medicine in Burkina Faso for oral diseases. Leaves and stems are used in rural areas to treat dental caries, and the bark is used to treat green diarrhea in infants. In the context of a better understanding of Prosopis africana’s bioactivity and toxicity, the present study deals with(...)

Privileged Complexity of the ternary Thue-Morse word
Boucaré Kientéga, K. Ernest Bognini and Moussa Barro
In this paper, we focus on a new type of complexity of infinite words called privileged complexity. We apply this concept to the ternary Thue-Morse word. First, we present properties of the return words in the ternary Thue-Morse word. Then, we study the privileged words of this infinite word. Finally, we derive a recursive formula that allows(...)

Optimizing the 4G--5G Migration: A Simulation-Driven Roadmap for Emerging Markets
Desire Guel and Justin Pegd-Windé Kouraogo and Kouka Kouakou Nakoulma
Deploying fifth-generation (5G) networks in emerging markets demands a balance between performance targets and constraints in budget, spectrum, and infrastructure. We use MATLAB simulations to quantify how radio and architectural levers - MIMO (beamforming, diversity, spatial multiplexing), carrier aggregation (CA), targeted spectrum refarming(...)

Effect ofTemperature and Light on Ex Situ Germinationof Flemingia faginea (Guill. &Perr.) Baker Seeds in BurkinaFaso
Raymond Nana, Hugues Roméo Bazié, Assan Gnoumou, Pale Mini Dah, Martin Sawadogo, and Gerard Zombré
Flemingia faginea is a woody species whose various parts are widely used in traditional medicine. However, this species, which typically grows along waterways, is becoming increasingly rare due to poor seed germination in the wild, possibly resulting from the effects of climate change and human activities. Given the increasing rarity of F. fag(...)

Fusarium solani is a cosmopolitan fungus causing mortality of young cowpea plants and severe wilting at an advanced stage of plant development. As a result, it considerably affects cowpea production, undermining food and nutritional security. The use of resistant varieties combined with appropriate agricultural practices is a very effective an(...)

Assessment of Diversity in Parental and F1 Populations of Pearl Millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] in Burkina Faso
Lardia Ali BOUGMA, Adjima OUOBA, Dieudonné TARO, Nerbéwendé SAWADOGO
Aims: Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is one of the cross-pollinated cereals in West Africa. It is cultivated for its grains. However, to date, strategies for selecting pearl millet populations and hybrids are low in West Africa. The objective of this study is to characterize the genetic bases of parental and F1 populations of pe(...)

A mathematical model study with crowley-Martin functional responses to describe fish and zooplankton dynamics
Wendkouni Ouedraogo, Hamidou Ouedraogo, Ousmane Koutou, Boureima Sangare
In this paper, we consider a reaction-diffusion model with homogeneous Neumann
boundary conditions to describe fish and zooplankton dynamics. This model incorporates
a complex Crowley-Martin functional responses. We also introduce two important
elements: fishing and cannibalism effect in the dynamics. In the mathematical
analysis, global a(...)
