Management of Ephestia cautella Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) in shea (Vitellaria paradoxa C.F. Gaertn) kernel stocks using insecticidal plant extracts.
Kambou S.F., Koussoube J.C., Kam K.W., Dingtoumda O.G., Wangrawa W.D., Sanon A., Ilboudo Z.
Many essential oils and powders of aromatic plants with insecticidal properties are more and more considered as alternative insecticides to protect stored products against pests. One of these pests is Ephestia cautella Walker (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) which is a major pest of stored nuts. The larvae of this insect infesting shea kernels cause c(...)

Malaria and Aedes-borne diseases remain major causes of mortality, morbidity, and disability in most developing countries. Surveillance of transmission patterns associated with vector control remains strategic for combating these diseases. Due to the limitions of current surveillance tools used to assess human exposure to mosquito bites, human(...)

Effect of photoperiod and 20-hydroxyecdysone on post-embryonic development and diapause disruption in Cirina butyrospermi Vuillet (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae) under laboratory conditions
Z.S. Ouédraogo, A. Badolo, A. Maria , D. Siaussat, S. Niassy, and A. Sanon
Cirina butyrospermi (Lepidoptera: Saturniidae), commonly known as the shea caterpillar, is an edible insect in several West African countries. However, this insect is seasonal due to a long pupal diapause. This study therefore aims to explore the potential for mass rearing of C. butyrospermi by determining the role of photoperiod and 20-hydrox(...)

Background : Resistance to insecticides is spreading among populations of Aedes aegypti, the primary vector of important human arboviruses. The escalating insecticide resistance poses a significant threat to dengue vector control, with an expanding number of countries affected by the disease. To gain a deeper insight into the evolution of inse(...)

Background
Insecticide treated nets (ITNs) are the most important malaria prevention tool in Africa but the rise of pyrethroid resistance in mosquitoes is likely impeding control. WHO has recommended a novel pyrethroid–pyrrole ITN following evidence of epidemiological benefit in two cluster-randomised, controlled trials (CRTs). It remains unc(...)

Behavioral response of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae) to essential oils of Cymbopogon nardus (L.) Eucalyptus camaldulensis (Dehnh) and their blend in Y-maze olfactometer

Background Aedes aegypti vectors several important arboviruses including dengue and yellow fever. This vector mosquito is controlled mainly by using synthetic insecticides and repellents. Overusing these insecticides causes mosquito resistance, harms the environment, and affects human health. This report reevaluates the repellent activities of(...)

Identification and molecular characterization of Caryedon furcatus (Anton & Delobel), the main pest of Senegalia macrostachya (Reichenb. ex-DC. Kyal & Boatwr) seeds in storage in Burkina Faso.
Dioma L., Koussoubé J. C., Sembène M., Sanon A., & Ilboudo Z.
In Burkina Faso, seeds of Senegalia macrostachya (Rchb. Ex DC.) Kyal. & Boatwr. during storage are attacked by a pest morphologically identified as Caryedon mauritanicus auct. In 2004, Anton and Delobel described it for the first time under a new name 'Caryedon furcatus'. Thus, C. mauritanicus is now considered to be C. furcatus. In the presen(...)

Evaluation of Corcyra cephalonica Stainton (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) damage and insecticidal efficacy of six plant powders on the three main cereals produced in Burkina Faso

There are different methods of storing grain, some of which involve the use of chemicals. These chemicals have harmful effects on consumer health. To avoid these chemicals, the use of biopesticides constitutes one of the promising solutions. Thus, we evaluated the effectiveness of powders of different plant materials to protect millet, maize a(...)

Inventory of the entomofauna associated with Tamarindus indica flowers and fruits and their damage in Hauts-Bassins’ region of Burkina Faso
Kilo Francine Marina Ki, Mayouré Edith Ilboudo, Larissa Dioma, Koï Wenceslas Kam, Antoine Sanon and Zakaria Ilboudo
Insects are essential to the development of flowering plants, but they also cause huge damage to plants and their by-products. The tamarind tree, a plant with many virtues, is subject to attack by some insects. Our study aimed to determine the abundance and diversity of insects associated with tamarind (Tamarindus indica) from flowering to mat(...)

Post-harvest management and phytosanitary practices used to preserve sorrel seeds, Hibiscus sabdariffa L. in Burkina Faso
Kabore, E., Kambou, SF., Kam, K. W., Koussoube J. C., KI, K, F, M., Sanon, A . & Ilboudo, Z.
In the lack of a suitable control strategy, sorrel seeds are heavily damaged by S. niger during the storage. Better post-harvest management will make it possible to add value to this legume and make it available throughout the year. The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of the various post-harvest practices applied to sorrel(...)

Exploration of entomotherapeutic potential of bees’ products and termite nests from Burkina Faso
Mamadou Ouango, Hama Cissé, Rahim Romba, Samuel Fogné Drabo, Rasmané Semdé, Aly Savadogo, Olivier Gnankiné
In Burkina Faso, products and nests of insect are used for therapeutic purposes in traditional medicine. However, this
use by local populations is marginal and empirical. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of extracts of bees’ products and termite nests. Thus, the collected termite nests were finely ground.(...)

Background
Pyrethroid resistance is one of the major threats for effectiveness of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) in malaria vector control. Genotyping of mutations in the voltage gated sodium channel (VGSC) gene is widely used to easily assess the evolution and spread of pyrethroid target-site resistance among malaria vectors. L1014F and(...)

Background
Ae. aegypti is the vector of important μ arboviruses, including dengue, Zika, chikungunya and yellow fever. Despite not being specifically targeted by insecticide-based control programs in West Africa, resistance to insecticides in Ae. aegypti has been reported in countries within this region. In this study, we investigated the sta(...)
