Genetic diversity of Fonio (Digitaria exilis) in Burkina Faso using SNP markers
Patrice BALMA, Jacques OUEDRAOGO, V. Nikodème KABRÉ, Boukaré KABORE and Pauline BATIONO-KANDO
Fonio (Digitaria exilis) is a cereal of food, economic and cultural importance in Burkina Faso. Although many studies have focused on its agromorphological variability, a more thorough evaluation based on the genome sequencing offer is essential for better management and valorization of this cereal. This present study aimed at determining t(...)

Challenger, Gauthier Tougri, Adama Gansané, Hilary Ranson, Gnankiné Olivier and Joseph Wagman
Background The introduction of next-generation insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) in Burkina Faso aims to mitigate
pyrethroid resistance in malaria vectors. This study evaluated the impact of different ITN types on phenotypic resistance
and kdr mutation frequencies in Anopheles gambiae sensus lacto (s.l.) populations across three health distric(...)

Optimizing the 4G--5G Migration: A Simulation-Driven Roadmap for Emerging Markets
Desire Guel and Justin Pegd-Windé Kouraogo and Kouka Kouakou Nakoulma
Deploying fifth-generation (5G) networks in emerging markets demands a balance between performance targets and constraints in budget, spectrum, and infrastructure. We use MATLAB simulations to quantify how radio and architectural levers - MIMO (beamforming, diversity, spatial multiplexing), carrier aggregation (CA), targeted spectrum refarming(...)

Effect ofTemperature and Light on Ex Situ Germination of Flemingia faginea (Guill. &Perr.) Baker Seeds in BurkinaFaso
Raymond Nana, Hugues Roméo Bazié, Assan Gnoumou, Pale Mini Dah, Martin Sawadogo, and Gerard Zombré
Flemingia faginea is a woody species whose various parts are widely used in traditional medicine. However, this species, which typically grows along waterways, is becoming increasingly rare due to poor seed germination in the wild, possibly resulting from the effects of climate change and human activities. Given the increasing rarity of F. fag(...)

Identification of Sources of Resistance in Cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] to Vascular Disease Caused by Fusarium solani in Burkina Faso
Kiswendsida Issaka Sam, Pawinde Elisabeth Zida, Benoit Joseph Batieno, Saadon Leandre Poda, Yannick Bassole, Abdou-kader Congo, Zakaria Dieni , Hamadou Zongo, Jean Baptiste Tignegre , Bouma James Neya, Nerbewende Sawadogo
Fusarium solani is a cosmopolitan fungus causing mortality of young cowpea plants and severe wilting at an advanced stage of plant development. As a result, it considerably affects cowpea production, undermining food and nutritional security. The use of resistant varieties combined with appropriate agricultural practices is a very effective an(...)

Assessment of Diversity in Parental and F1 Populations of Pearl Millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] in Burkina Faso
Lardia Ali BOUGMA, Adjima OUOBA, Dieudonné TARO, Nerbéwendé SAWADOGO
Aims: Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.) is one of the cross-pollinated cereals in West Africa. It is cultivated for its grains. However, to date, strategies for selecting pearl millet populations and hybrids are low in West Africa. The objective of this study is to characterize the genetic bases of parental and F1 populations of pe(...)

Dynamics of Environmental Conditions and Persistence of Malaria, a Tropical Disease in the City of Koudougou in Burkina Faso
Karim Lossiané, Songanaba Rouamba, Joseph Yaméogo
Malaria is one of the oldest diseases in human history. The first scientific knowledge about this epidemic dates back to Hippocrates (5thcentury BC). The discovery of Plasmodium, the parasite responsible for malaria, by Alphonse Laveran in 1880 opened up a new and more dynamic front in the fight against this disease. However, socio-environment(...)

Can inclusive growth reduce multidimensional poverty in Sub-Saharan Africa?
Adama SAWADOGO, Noel THIOMBIANO, Relwendé SAWADOGO
Poverty is a major concern for policymakers in Sub-Saharan Africa, as this region alone accounts for more than half of the world’s poor. This research analyses the effect of inclusive growth on multidimensional poverty in a sample of 33 Sub-Saharan African countries over the period 1996–2019. The results, derived from the first-difference esti(...)

A mathematical model study with crowley-Martin functional responses to describe fish and zooplankton dynamics
Wendkouni Ouedraogo, Hamidou Ouedraogo, Ousmane Koutou, Boureima Sangare
In this paper, we consider a reaction-diffusion model with homogeneous Neumann
boundary conditions to describe fish and zooplankton dynamics. This model incorporates
a complex Crowley-Martin functional responses. We also introduce two important
elements: fishing and cannibalism effect in the dynamics. In the mathematical
analysis, global a(...)

La résolution de la crise écologique ne peut échapper à l’intervention de la politique. L’État est tantôt vu comme la solution, et tantôt comme l’une des causes majeures à travers les politiques économiques. Nous analysons le rapport des sociétés à l’économie, le rôle de l’écologie politique et la place de l’État face à la crise écologique. Le(...)
