Genetic Diversity of a Collection of Solanum macrocarpon from Burkina Faso Revealed by Microsatellite Markers
Kabore Boukare, Sawadogo Boureima, Kiebre Mariam, Tiama Djakaridia, Kiebre Zakaria, Traore Renan Ernest, Sawadogo Mahamadou, Bationo-Kando Pauline
Solanum macrocarpon is an important vegetable native to Africa, with leaves and fruits. It is a potential source of
income and nutrients that contribute to the nutritional balance of the local population's food intake. However, S. macrocarpon
did not attract the interest of researchers in relation to other Solanum species. Indeed, knowledge(...)

Background
Genetic and environment play a significant role in the etiology of essential hypertension (EH). Recently STK39 rs3754777, ATP2B1 rs2681472 and rs17249754 have been associated with BP variation and hypertension. In this study we aimed to determine firstly whether index variants were associated with the risk of developing EH in Burki(...)

ector control constitutes a fundamental approach in reducing vector density and the efficient option to break
malaria transmission in Africa. Malaria vectors developed resistance to almost all classes of insecticides recommended by WHO for vector control in most places of African countries and may compromise the vector control
strategies. Th(...)

Background: A severe outbreak of dengue occurred in Burkina Faso in 2016, with the
most cases reported in Ouagadougou, that highlights the necessity to implement vector
surveillance system. This study aims to estimate the risk of arboviruses transmission and
the insecticide susceptibility status of potential vectors in four sites in Burkina(...)

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(...)
