Identification and validation of SSR markers linked to Striga gesneroides (willd.) vatke gene race 2 in cowpea |Vigna unguiculata (l.) Walp] in Mali
Diallo S., Sawadogo N., Ouedraogo M. H., Coulibaly B.S., Batieno Joseph B.T.J., Sawadogo M.
Cowpea (Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.) Is one of the most important grain legumes grown in Mali. But its production is strongly limited by the SG2 strain of Striga gesnerioides (Willd.) Vatke which constitutes one of the major biotic constraints. The F2 populations resulting from the crossing between the variety IT97K-499-35 (Resistant parent)(...)

Food-borne diseases represent a public major health problem, and drink-water, juice, meat, and milk products are usually involved. This study aimed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance of diarrheagenic E. coli isolated from dairy products consumed in Burkina Faso. Five hundred and twenty-two samples were gathered. Escherichia coli were isolat(...)

Mutations in GPSM2 cause Chudley-McCullough syndrome (CMCS), an autosomal recessive neurological disorder characterized by early-onset sensorineural deafness and brain anomalies. Here, we show that mutation of the mouse orthologue of GPSM2 affects actin-rich stereocilia elongation in auditory and vestibular hair cells, causing deafness and bal(...)

Susceptibility of MED-Q1 and MED-Q3 Biotypes of Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) Populations to Essential and Seed Oils
Drabo Samuel Fogne´,Gnankine Olivier, Imael H. N. Bassole´, Roger Charles Ne´bie´ and Mouton Laurence
Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is a major pest of many agricultural and ornamental crops
in tropical and subtropical regions causing damages that result in important economic losses. Insecticides are
commonly used in greenhouses or fields to control B. tabaci populations leading to rapid evolution of resistance that rend(...)

Bambara groundnut is an important source of protein to the rural majority in sub-Saharan Africa. However, small
farmers grow locally adapted landraces which are generally low yielding. Adequate knowledge of variability within Bambara groundnut germplasm collections is crucial for crop improvement and has important implications for conservati(...)

Phytochemistry and Agro-Industrial Potential of Native Oilseeds fromWest Africa: African Grape (Lannea microcarpa), Marula (Sclerocarya birrea), and Butter Tree (Pentadesma butyracea)
HILOU Adama, Adjima Bougma and Mamoudou H. DICKO
Ethnobotanical investigations on local oilseed species in Burkina Faso revealed that oils
from tree oilseeds are frequently used for food, cosmetics and traditional medicine by local people.
To test the bio-preservative capacity, the effect of the oilseed extracts on the stabilization of Shea butter
was evaluated. Levels of bioactive phyto-(...)

Options in human papillomavirus (HPV) detection for cervical cancer screening: comparison between full genotyping and a rapid qualitative HPV-DNA assay in Ghana
Dorcas Obiri-Yeboah, Yaw Adu-Sarkodie, Florencia Djigma, Kafui Akakpo, Ebenezer Aniakwa-Bonsu, Daniel Amoako-Sakyi, Jacques Simpore, Philippe Mayaud
Background
Modern cervical cancer screening increasingly relies on the use of molecular techniques detecting high-risk oncogenic human papillomavirus (hr-HPV). A major challenge for developing countries like Ghana has been the unavailability and costs of HPV DNA-based testing. This study compares the performance of careHPV, a semi-rapid and a(...)

Evidence that agricultural use of pesticides selects pyrethroid resistance within Anopheles gambiae s.l. populations from cotton growing areas in Burkina Faso, West Africa

Many studies have shown the role of agriculture in the selection and spread of resistance of
Anopheles gambiae s.l. to insecticides. However, no study has directly demonstrated the
presence of insecticides in breeding sources as a source of selection for this resistance. It is
in this context that we investigated the presence of pesticide r(...)

Thirty dried mango samples of Amélie, Brooks and Lippens varieties were collected for physico-chemical analyses to understanding the conditions of appearance of the enzymatic browning. These analyses showed that the higher contents of dry matter, assayable acidity, vitamin C and phenolic substrates were respectively 95,86 ± 0.01 mg/g; 1.56 ± 3(...)

Qnr genes are known to confer a low level resistance to fluoroquinolone in Enterobacteriaceae. Their presence with other antibiotic resistance mechanism as extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL) on the same plasmid are common and can spread widely. This study aimed to detect the presence of qnr genes in ESBL-producing commensal Enterobacteriacea(...)
