Spatial Distribution and Bioclimatic Factors of Sudano-Sahelian Agroforestry Tree Species: The Case of African Locust Bean (Parkia Biglobosa) and Shea (Vitellaria Paradoxa) in the Province of Boulkiemdé, Burkina Faso
Boureima Yo, Joseph Yaméogo, Pawendkisgou Isidore Yanogo
African locust bean (Parkia biglobosa) and shea (Vitellaria paradoxa) are emblematic species of West African agroforestry parklands. They play a major role in food security, rural livelihoods and the structuring of agricultural landscapes. However, their spatial distribution is insufficiently documented at the local level, particularly in a co(...)

Effect of growth hormones on micropropagation of a farmers referred local cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) cultivar from nodal explants in Burkina Faso
Wendpang-yidé I. Caleb Ouédraogo, Koussao. Somé, Monique Soro, Fidèle Tiendrébéogo, Djiakaria Tiama, Aboubacar Sory and Rasmata Nana
Adopting micropropagation methods to propagate local cassava (Manihot esculenta) cultivars of Burkina Faso could greatly enhance farmers’ access to high-quality cassava cuttings. However, the optimal composition of the growth medium may vary depending on the cassava genotype. This study aimed to assess the individual effects of 1-naphthaleneac(...)

Resistance Evaluation of Pearl Millet- Male-Sterility Maintainer Populations against Downy Mildew Disease in Burkina Faso
Mady Sawadogo; Inoussa Drabo; Armel Rouamba; Nerbéwendé Sawadogo
Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum [L.] R. Br.) is an important cereal crop in semi-arid regions, but its production is constrained by downy mildew caused by Sclerospora graminicola. The development of resistant male-sterility maintainer lines is important for improving the resistance of pearl millet hybrids. This study aimed to develop and scr(...)

MITRE-CAPE-2026: A Novel Dataset for Cyber Attackers Profiling Enhancement
Saoudata Bougma, Didier Bassolé, Sidwendluian Romaric Nana, P. Justin Kouraogo
Experimental cybersecurity research has traditionally relied on using datasets to train intrusion detection systems (IDS). However, current solutions suffer from outdated reference data and an event-centric approach limited to binary traffic classification or attack type identification. This article argues that threat anticipation requires a p(...)

Public key Integrity Verification and Restoration Approach in Passkeys Based on Blockchain and Security Analysis Under Dolev-Yao Model Using ProVerif
Ilboudo Assane, Didier Bassolé, Guel Désiré
This work proposes a decentralized mechanism for the verification and restoration of public keys in passkey-based authentication systems. The model relies on a synergistic integration of Blockchain and the distributed file system IPFS, aiming to eliminate dependence on a centralized trusted third party and to enhance the resilience of public k(...)

Physicochemical, Microbiological Quality and Compliance of Dried Food Products from a Food Processing Unit in Burkina Faso
Boureima Kagambèga, Nicolas Ouédraogo , Alain Gustave Yaguibou, Edwige Rosine Somé/Tiodjio , Tarnagda Bakary François Tapsoba, Ckeikna Zongo and Savadogo Aly
Aims: In Burkina Faso, the processing of dried food products contributes to the valorisation of local
resources, the reduction of post-harvest losses and the improvement of food security. Despite the increasing
importance of these products in dietary habits, data on their physicochemical and microbiological quality
remain limited. This stud(...)
