Association mapping by pooled sequencing identifies TOLL 11 as a protective factor against Plasmodium falciparum in Anopheles gambiae
A. GNEME
The genome-wide association study (GWAS) techniques that have been used for genetic mapping in other organisms have not been successfully applied to mosquitoes, which have genetic characteristics of high nucleotide diversity, low linkage disequilibrium, and complex population stratification that render population-based GWAS essentially unfeasi(...)

Drying of “Amelie” mango (Mangifera Indica L.): Influence of temperature on drying rates and shrinkage curves from 50 to 90 C.
D. BATHIEBO
In this study, drying rates and shrinkage curves of Amelie mango are established from 50 to 90 C and the temperature influence is investigated. Results show that drying rates are greatly influenced by drying air temperature and most of the drying process takes place during the falling drying rate period. From 50 to 90 C, drying kinetics are su(...)

The kdr-bearing haplotype and susceptibility to Plasmodium falciparum in Anopheles gambiae: genetic correlation and functional testing
A. GNEME
Members of the Anopheles gambiae species complex are primary vectors of human malaria in Africa. It is known that a large haplotype shared between An. gambiae and Anopheles coluzzii by introgression carries point mutations of the voltage-gated sodium channel gene para, including the L1014F kdr mutation associated with insensitivity to pyrethro(...)

Evolution of GOUNDRY, a cryptic subgroup of Anopheles gambiae s.l., and its impact on susceptibility to Plasmodium infection
A. GNEME
The recent discovery of a previously unknown genetic subgroup of Anopheles gambiae sensu lato underscores our incomplete understanding of complexities of vector population demographics in Anopheles. This subgroup, named GOUNDRY, does not rest indoors as adults and is highly susceptible to Plasmodium infection in the laboratory. Initial descrip(...)

On the interest of ambipolar materials for gas sensing
Based on the electrochemical properties of a series of metallophthalocyanines this article shows that the phthalocyanine bearing four alkoxy groups and twelve fluorine atoms behaves approximately as those with eight fluorine atoms. This indicates that the electron-donating effect of one alkoxy group balances the electro-withdrawing effect of o(...)

Pulmonary embolism mimicking acute anterior myocardial infarction: diagnostic trap
N. YAMEOGO
Pulmonary embolism remains the major malingerer of acute chest disease. The clinical and electrocardiographic manifestations may deviate to a diagnosis of myocardial infarction. We report a case of bilateral pulmonary embolism in a patient of 50 years. The electrocardiogram showed ST elevation in anteroseptal and lateral leads. The diagnosis o(...)

Floristic and dendrometric analysis of woodlands in the Sudano-Guinean zone: a case study of Belléfoungou forest reserve in Benin
A. OUEDRAOGO
A floristic and dendrometric analysis was carried out using 15 square plots of 1 ha each in the Belléfoungou forest reserve, located in the Sudano-Guinean zone of Benin. Species and diameter at breast height of trees were recorded. Multidimensional scaling and importance value index of species were used to identify vegetation types in the rese(...)

Biological activities of four essential oils against Anopheles gambiae in Burkina Faso and their in vitro inhibition of acetylcholinesterase
A. BADOLO
The control of malaria is still a challenge partly due to mosquito's resistance to current available insecticides. The aim of this work was to evaluate the ovicidal, larvicidal and repellent activities of Lantana camara, Hyptis suaveolens, Hyptis spicigera and Ocimum canum essential oils against Anopheles gambiae sl according to the World Heal(...)

Three years of insecticide resistance monitoring in Anopheles gambiae in Burkina Faso: resistance on the rise?
A. BADOLO
A longitudinal Anopheles gambiae sl insecticide-resistance monitoring programme was established in four sentinel sites in Burkina Faso. For three years, between 2008 and 2010, WHO diagnostic dose assays were used to measure the prevalence of resistance to all the major classes of insecticides at the beginning and end of the malaria transmissio(...)

Insecticide resistance in malaria vectors in areas of seasonal malaria transmission in Burkina Faso: knock-down resistance gene distribution
A. BADOLO
Resistance to insecticide is the main concern for vectors control based on insecticides. We conducted a two-year monitoring on the resistance to insecticides of Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles funestus in five localities of Burkina Faso. The susceptibility to insecticides was performed using WHO test. The knock-down time (KDT) and after 24h mo(...)

Equivalent susceptibility of Anopheles gambiae M and S molecular forms and Anopheles arabiensis to Plasmodium falciparum infection in Burkina Faso
A. GNEME
The Anopheles gambiae sensu lato (sl) species complex in Burkina Faso consists of Anopheles arabiensis, and molecular forms M and S of Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto (ss). Previous studies comparing the M and S forms for level of infection with Plasmodium falciparum have yielded conflicting results. Mosquito larvae were sampled from natural p(...)

In vitro assay of potential antifungal and antibacterial activities of extracts of Borassus aethiopum Mart
E. KABRE
The anti-inflammatory, antipyretic, and pro-apoptotic properties of extracts of Borassus aethiopum have been reported in the literature. In this study, we investigated the antifungal and antibacterial properties of Borassus aethiopum male inflorescences extracts. The antifungal and antibacterial activity was studied by agar well diffusion meth(...)

Congenital malformations and medical conditions associated with orofacial clefts in children in Burkina Faso
K. NAGALO
Orofacial clefts are usually isolated cases but can be associated with other congenital malformations that are either recognised or unrecognised syndromes. The reported prevalence and pattern of such associated malformations, however, vary among studies. Objectives: To assess the frequencies and aetiologies of congenital malformations and asso(...)
