Exploring the diversity of Poaceae- infecting mastreviruses on Reunion Island using a viral metagenomics- based approach
Sohini claverie, Alassane ouattara, Murielle Hoareau, Denis filloux, Arvind Varsani, philippe Roumagnac, Darren P. Martin, Jean-Michel Lett, pierre Lefeuvre
Mostly found in Africa and its surrounding islands, African streak viruses (AfSV) represent the largest group of known mastreviruses. Of the thirteen AfSV species that are known to infect either cultivated or wild Poaceae plant species, six have been identified on Reunion Island. To better characterize AfSV diversity on this island, we underto(...)

La sanction à l’école au Burkina Faso : entre interdiction, survivance et innovation
SORE Zakaria et MOYENGA Paul-Marie
La sanction, considérée comme un acte qui permet à l’enfant de renouer avec les bonnes pratiques, a longtemps été étroitement associée au processus d’apprentissage. Cependant, cette perception a évolué avec l’arrivée des pédagogies nouvelles. Ainsi, l’État burkinabè adopte des textes condamnant la pratique. Se développent alors des stratégies(...)

Assessment of CH4 and CO2 surface emissions from Polesgo's landfill (Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso) based on static chamber method
Kayaba Haro, Issoufou Ouarma, Bernard Nana, Antoine Bere, Guy Christian Tubreoumya, Sié Zacharie Kam, Patricia Laville, Benjamin Loubet, Jean Koulidiati
Methane (CH4) and carbon dioxide (CO2) surface emissions from Polesgo's landfill (Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso) were measured using the static chamber technique in 2017 and 2018. The Polesgo's landfill was composed of four zones: Phase I, II, Phase III, and SP. The surface of Phase I was fully covered and its conditions are better for surface emi(...)

Bifurcation and stability Analysis in Complex Cross-Diffusion Mathematical Model of Phytoplankton-Fish Dynamics
OUEDRAOGO Hamidou, OUEDRAOGO Wendkouni and SANGARE Boureima ´ ∗
In this paper, we propose a nonlinear reaction-diffusion system describing the interaction
between toxin-producing phytoplankton and fish population. We analyze the effect of cross-diffusion on
the dynamics of the system. The mathematical study of the model leads us to have an idea on the existence
of a solution, the existence of equilibria(...)

Wild and cultivated biomass supply chain for biofuel production. A comparative study in West Africa
Linda Dominique Fabiola Bambara, Marie Sawadogo. Daniel Roy, Joël Blin, Didier Anciaux, Salifou Koucka Ouiminga
Limited access to energy has led to interest in biofuels in most West African countries where jatropha curcas (Jatropha) has been the most widely studied energy crop. However, due to difficulties in obtaining enough jatropha seed at acceptable costs, Balanites aegyptiaca (B. aegyptiaca) could be an alternative feedstock for biofuel production(...)

Liver retinol estimated by 13C-retinol isotope dilution at 7 versus 14 days in Burkinabe schoolchildren
Jean F Bationo , Augustin N Zeba , Nadine D Coulibaly , Jesse Sheftel , Christopher R Davis , Imael HN Bassole , Nicolas Barro , Jean B Ouedraogo and Sherry A Tanumihardjo
Vitamin A status assessment is not straightforward. Retinol isotope dilution (RID) testing requires time for the tracer dose to mix with the total body stores of vitamin A (TBS). Researchers are interested in shortening the time interval between tracer administration and follow-up blood draws, and in re-examining current assumptions about live(...)

Chrysanthellum americanum L. (Vatke) is a medicinal plant from the Compositae family used in west-African traditional medicine, known for its flavonoid and saponin richness and for its strong antioxidant potential. In the present study, we assessed the effects of Chrysanthellum americanum polyphenolic extract in the psychological stress-induce(...)

Growth and characterization of WSe2 single crystals usingTeCl4 as transport agent
Moussa Bougouma, Bernard Nisol, Thomas Doneux, Boubié Guel, Tiriana Segato, François Reniers, Marie-Paule Delplancke-Ogletree, Jean B. Legma, Claudine Buess-Herman,
The growth of WSe2 single crystals, using TeCl4 as transport agent was performed successfully from slowly cooled polycrystalline powders as precursors. The resulting single crystals were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and their surfaces examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) presented fewer defects than single crystals prepar(...)

LE RÉCIT À L’ÉPREUVE DE L’ARCHÉOLOGIE : LES CHAMPS DE BATAILLE ET REFUGES DU XIX E SIÈCLE EN PAYS TUSIAN (BURKINA FASO)
COULIBALY Pon Jean-Baptiste
Le XIXe siècle marque un tournant décisif dans l'histoire des Tusian. Les guerres et les razzia qui caractérisent cette période ont marqué durablement les consciences. Mais l’histoire sociale et politique de cette période reste encore méconnue car non écrite. Les rares écrits ne sont que des transcriptions des traditions orales encore vivaces(...)
