Population structure of three woody species in four ethnic domains of the sub‐sahel of Burkina Faso
T. K. Sop, J. Oldeland, U. Schmiedel, I. Ouedraogo, A. Thiombiano
In developing countries many people depend on woody resources for their livelihoods. Monitoring human impact on the populations of socio-economically important species is therefore important for the conservation of vulnerable plants.
In order to assess and compare the population structure and regeneration patterns of three multipurpose spec(...)

Effects of various cooking methods and food components on bioaccessibility of mercury from fish
Ousséni Ouédraogo, Marc Amyot
Fish consumption is the main source of human exposure to mercury. Studies from specific human populations have reported Hg levels lower than those modeled from consumption data These discrepancies between expected and measured Hg levels may be explained by differences in dietary habits such as cooking methods and food components on fish Hg bio(...)

Phenolic compounds and antioxidant activities in some fruits and vegetables from Burkina Faso
Romaric G. Bayili , Fatoumata Abdoul-Latif , Oumou H. Kone , Mamounata Diao , Imael H. N. Bassole and Mamoudou H. Dicko
Levels of total phenolic compounds (TPC), proanthocyanidins (PAs) and antioxidant activities among sixteen fruits and vegetables commonly consumed in Burkina Faso were determined. Levels of TPC ranged from 0.21 to 3.33 mg of gallic acid equivalent per gram of fresh matter. The highest contents in TPC were found in hot chi(...)

YOTOVA V, Jean-Francois Lefebvre, Claudia Moreau, Elias Gbeha1, Kristine Hovhannesyan, Stephane Bourgeois, Sandra Bédarida, Luisa Azevedo, Antonio Amorim, Tamara Sarkisian, Patrice Avogbe, Nicodeme Chabi, Mamoudou H. DICKO, Emile Sabiba Kou, Santa Amouzou, Ambaliou Sanni, June Roberts-Thomson, Barry Boettcher, Rodney J. Scott and Damian Labuda
Recent work on the Neandertal genome has raised the possibility of admixture between Neandertals and the expanding population of Homo sapiens who left Africa between 80 and 50 Kya (thousand years ago) to colonize the rest of the world. Here, we provide evidence of a notable presence (9% overall) of a Neandertal-derived X chromosome segment amo(...)

The flavanone naringenin reduces the production of quorum sensing-controlled virulence factors in Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1
Preliminary screening of the Malagasy plant Combretum albiflorum for compounds attenuating the production of quorum sensing (QS)-controlled virulence factors in bacteria led to the identification of active fractions containing flavonoids. In the present study, several flavonoids belonging to the flavone, flavanone, flavonol and chalcone struct(...)
