Sex aggregation and species segregation cues in swarming mosquitoes: role of ground visual markers
Serge B. Poda1,2,3, Charles Nignan1,2, Olivier Gnankiné2, Roch K. Dabiré1, Abdoulaye Diabaté1 and Olivier Roux1,
Abstract
Background: Mating swarm segregation in closely related insect species may contribute to reproductive isolation.
Visual markers are used for swarm formation; however, it is unknown whether they play a key role in swarm location,
species segregation and sex aggregation.
Methods: Using two sympatric closely related species of the An(...)

Semi-field and indoor setups to study malaria mosquito swarming behavior
Abdoulaye Niang1, Charles Nignan1,2, B. Serge Poda1,2,3, Simon P. Sawadogo1, K. Roch Dabiré1, Olivier Gnankiné2, Frédéric Tripet4, Olivier Roux1,3† and Abdoulaye Diabaté1*†
Background: The recent resurgence of interest in sterile insect techniques to control vector mosquitoes has
renewed interest in novel methods for observing mating behavior. Malarial vectors of the Anopheles gambiae complex are known to mate in swarms at specific locations at dawn and dusk. Most knowledge of mosquito swarming
behavior is deri(...)

Genetic diversity of Hibiscus cannabinus L. of Burkina Faso using SSRs markers
Kabre, V. N., Sawadogo, B., Kiebre, Z., Kiebre, M., Ouedraogo, M. H., Bationo/Kando, P.
This study is aimed at a better knowledge of the genetic diversity of H. cannabinus, a
leafy vegetable which is very consumed in Burkina Faso. For this, a molecular
characterization using SSRs microsatellite markers of 70 accessions collected in the
three climatic zones of the country was carried out. The analysis shows significant
genetic(...)

Toddlers’ Dietary Diversity and Its Determinants in Different Agricultural Periods
Ouédraogo, Ousmane, Ella Wendinpuikondo Raketa Compaoré, Emile Kou’santa Sabiba Amouzou, Mamoudou Hama Dicko
Background: Inadequate diet and illness were immediate causes of malnutrition. Dietary diversity helps to ensure adequate intake of essential nutrients and promotes good health. Challenge is to maintain adequate nutrients intake during all periods. The primary study objective was to determine the toddlers’ dietary diversity and its determinant(...)

Estimates of phenotypic diversity and genetic parameters of Hibiscus cannabinus L. grown in Burkina Faso
Nikodème V. KABRÉ, Boureima SAWADOGO, Mariam KIÉBRÉ, Zakaria KIÉBRÉ, Romaric K. NANEMA and Pauline BATIONO-KANDO
Hibiscus cannabinus is a traditional leafy-vegetable consumed more and more in Burkina Faso. Its
leaves and fruits are some good food supplement against nutritional deficiencies. Its fibers are also a source of
income for households. Despite of its nutritional an economic potential, this species is underdeveloped in
Burkina Faso. The study(...)

Liver retinol estimated by 13C-retinol isotope dilution at 7 versus 14 days in Burkinabe schoolchildren
Jean F Bationo , Augustin N Zeba , Nadine D Coulibaly , Jesse Sheftel , Christopher R Davis , Imael HN Bassole , Nicolas Barro , Jean B Ouedraogo and Sherry A Tanumihardjo
Vitamin A status assessment is not straightforward. Retinol isotope dilution (RID) testing requires time for the tracer dose to mix with the total body stores of vitamin A (TBS). Researchers are interested in shortening the time interval between tracer administration and follow-up blood draws, and in re-examining current assumptions about live(...)

The black soldier fly, yellow mealworm and house fly are known for their wide distribution, ease of
breeding, and environmental and nutritional attributes. Diets based on these fly proteins for the rearing
of mosquito larvae are more accessible and affordable when compared to the reference IAEA diet which
consists largely of costly livestoc(...)
