Genetic Variability Induced by Gamma Radiation in Cowpea [(Vigna unguiculata L. (Walp)] in Burkina Faso
Karidiatou Gnankambary, Teyoure Benoit Joseph Batieno, Nerbewende Sawadogo, Mahamadou Sawadogo, Jean Baptiste Tignegre, Djibril Yonli, Tinga Jeremy Ouedraogo
Cowpea is a good source of protein, minerals, and vitamins in most developing countries in Africa. However, this legume production is still limited by various biotic and abiotic constraints. Beyond these constraints, the pressure of conventional breeding methods on natural variability exhausted a narrow genetic base of cowpea. Therefore, it is(...)

Genetic Diversity of Jatropha curcas in Burkina Faso Revealed by Microsatellite Markers
Kouka Fidele Tiendrebeogo, Nerbewende Sawadogo, Mahamadi Hamed Ouedraogo, Zakaria Kiebre, Wend-Pagnangde Marie Serge Felicien Zida, Kiswendsida Romaric Nanema,, Teyoure Benoit Joseph Batieno, Renan Ernest Traore, Pauline Bationo-Kando, Jean-Didier Zongo, Mahamadou Sawadogo
Jatropha curcas L. is a perennial oleaginous plant commonly used in tropical areas as a medicinal plant in the construction of defensive hedges against animals, and in the fight against water erosion. It produces oil which
can be used as agrofuel or soap-making. Despite its potential, the species remain under-exploited and its genetic divers(...)

Implication of low risk human papillomaviruses, HPV6 and HPV11 in laryngeal papillomatosis in Burkina Faso
Maïmouna Ilboudo, Théodora Mahoukèdè Zohoncon, Ina Marie Angèle Traore, Esther Mah Alima Traore, Ali Kande, Dorcas Obiri-Yeboah, Florencia W Djigma, Yvette Marie Chantal Gyebre, Jacques Simpore
Purpose
Laryngeal papillomatosis is the most common benign tumor of the larynx of children. It is characterized by the development of exophytic proliferative lesions in the mucosa of the airways. Human papillomavirus (HPV) has been recognized as a causal agent among which HPV types 6 and 11 are the most frequently implicated. This disease aff(...)

Problems of interpretation of serum electrophoresis related to the manual phase during its realization with a semi-automatic automaton
Raoul Karfo, Elie Kabré, Nadia Safir, Mounya Bouabdellah, Laila Benchekroun, Jean Sakandé, Layachi Chabraoui
Manual steps including preparation of samples and gel, and launching of automatic sequences can cause many difficulties in the interpretation of electrophoresis. Three observations of electrophoretic profiles on Hydragel 15β1-β2 agarose gel media led us to look for interference in the manual step of the technique used. After reconsidering all(...)

Isolement et caractérisation de souches fongiques à partir de poissons fumés/séchés du lac fitri au Tchad
Abdoullahi H. Ousman Tidjani Abdelsalam, Sawadogo Adama, Tarnagda Bakary, Lawane I. Abakar, Cissé Hama,Traoré Yves, Savadogo Aly
Les poissons séchés/fumés sont très consommés au Tchad et dans les pays sahéliens. Toutefois, ces denrées, du
fait de certaines conditions de transformation sont susceptibles d’être contaminées par les moisissures productrices de mycotoxines dangereuses. Cette étude avait pour objectif d’isoler et d’identifier les souches fongiques contaminan(...)

Agro-physiological responses of okra genotypes cultivated under water deficit conditions
Rasmata Nana, Mahamadi Hamed Ouédraogo, Nerbéwendé Sawadogo, Didier Compaoré, Razacswendé Fanta Ouédraogo, Badoua Badiel, Mahamadou Sawadogo
Water is a scarce resource, and Okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) is grown in wet and dry seasons. For its dry season cultivation, alternative water sources are used for watering, but these sources are not sustainable in Burkina Faso. The aim of this study was to determine water deficit effect on okra’s behavior. Five genotypes of okra were subjec(...)

Impact of human activities on the reproduction of Hooded Vultures Necrosyrtes monachus in Burkina Faso
Clément Daboné, Ralph Buij, Adama Oueda, Jacques Boko Adjakpa, Wendengoudi Guenda & Peter DM Weesie
During the last decades, the critically endangered Hooded Vulture Necrosyrtes monachus has strongly declined across its African range. Although direct persecution has been suggested as a major cause of this decline, little is known about the impact of humans on reproductive output in West Africa. We studied the impact of human activities on th(...)
