Background In South-Western Burkina Faso, where malaria remains highly endemic, the widespread resistance
of Anopheles mosquitoes to pyrethroid is reducing the effectiveness of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs). This study
assessed 3-year trends in key entomological indicators following the deployment of standard pyrethroid-only

Urinary tract infections (UTIs) represent a significant public health issue. The increasing prevalence of Extended-spectrum
β-lactamases (ESBLs) producing Gram-negative bacilli (GNB) significantly limit treatment options. This study investi
gated the phenotypic and genotypic characteristics of ESBL-producing GNB isolated from urine specimen(...)

Can permanganate oxidizable carbon, microbial respiration, and carbon mineralization rate reflect carbon dynamics across land use and pedo-climate gradients in West African semi-arid zones?
Gannouka Nadjire, Alimata Arzouma Bandaogo, Amanuel W. Gebremichael, Oumarou Ouédraogo and Joseph Issaka Boussim
Climate variability, soil type, land use, and vegetation structure modulate soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics, but their effects on sensitive soil carbon indicators are not adequately quantified in semi-arid ecosystems. This research examined the independent and synergistic impacts of pedo-climate, land use, and canopy cover on permanganate o(...)

Natural biostimulant formulations enriched with honey, iodine, and silymarin enhance drought tolerance and yield in faba bean (Vicia Faba L.) through antioxidant and hormonal regulation
Rady, M. M., Elkelish, A., Battaglia, M. L., Abdel-Kawy, M. A., Mohamed, G. F., Taie, H. A., ... & Sayed, A. A.
Drought stress is a major limitation to legume productivity in arid and semi-arid regions. This study investigated the effectiveness of two novel natural biostimulant formulations (NBFs), composed of bee honey, potassium iodate, and silymarin selected for their complementary antioxidant and osmoprotective functions in enhancing drought toleran(...)

GC-MS characterization of bioactive compounds from Lippia multiflora Moldenke (Verbenaceae) flower essential oils and their antibiofilm potential against resistant bacteria
Ablassé Rouamba, Moussa Compaoré, Yahaya Zoungrana, Eli Compaoré & Martin Kiendrebeogo
Bacterial resistance to antibiotics is a global health challenge, partly due to biofilm formation, which protects bacteria against drugs and the immune system. This study investigated the potential of essential oils from Lippia multiflora flowers to inhibit bacterial biofilms, offering a natural alternative to address bacterial resistance. Ant(...)

Introduction : L’aquaculture, bien qu’en pleine expansion mondiale, reste marginale au Burkina Faso, avec une consommation annuelle de poisson estimée à 3,5 kg par habitant, contre 20 kg au niveau mondial. Introduite dans les années 1950, la pisciculture représente une alternative stratégique face à la baisse des captures halieutiques et un le(...)

Cymbopogon citratus and Lippia multiflora essential oils as alternative repellent to DEET against Anopheles gambiae s.l. in Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso

Personal protective tools, such as repellents, play a vital role in preventing mosquito-borne disease
transmission. Although N,N-diethyl-meta-toluamide (DEET), a synthetic repellent, is effective against
insects, it may cause allergic reactions. Therefore, there is a need to explore effective alternative
repellents exhibiting fewer side eff(...)

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(...)
