Assessment of the humidity tolerance of onion (Allium cepa L.) cultivars grown in the field during the wet season
Alpha Sidy Traore, Jean Baptiste De La Salle Tignegre, Zakaria Kiebre, Sory Sissoko, John Rusagara Nzungize and Mahamadou Sawadogo
The study investigated how seasonal humidity patterns in 2020 influenced the survival, growth, and yield of different onion (Allium cepa L.) varieties. Relative humidity showed strong seasonal variation, starting at low and unstable levels from January to April (minimum 10 to 40%, maximum 40 to 80%), rising steadily from May to nearly 100%, an(...)

Life history traits of Necrobia rufipes (De Geer, 1775) (Coleoptera: Cleridae) on pig and rabbit substrates in the Northern Sudanian zone of Burkina Faso
David Zongo, Samuel Fogné Drabo, Théodore Yinbyada Ouedraogo, Rahim Romba, · Prisca Pare , Antoine Waongo, Fousséni Traore and Olivier Gnankine
Forensic entomology focused on sarcosaprophagous insects and arthropods may provide a sound tool for assessment of
Post Mortem Interval (PMI) and could provide scientific evidence for date of deaths. However, few data on necrophagous
insect are available in many western African countries particulary in Burkina Faso. The current study focused(...)
