Kilo Francine Marina Ki, Mayouré Edith Ilboudo, Larissa Dioma, Koï Wenceslas Kam, Antoine Sanon and Zakaria Ilboudo
Insects are essential to the development of flowering plants, but they also cause huge damage to plants and their by-products. The tamarind tree, a plant with many virtues, is subject to attack by some insects. Our study aimed to determine the abundance and diversity of insects associated with tamarind (Tamarindus indica) from flowering to mat(...)

Post-harvest management and phytosanitary practices used to preserve sorrel seeds, Hibiscus sabdariffa L. in Burkina Faso
Kabore, E., Kambou, SF., Kam, K. W., Koussoube J. C., KI, K, F, M., Sanon, A . & Ilboudo, Z.
In the lack of a suitable control strategy, sorrel seeds are heavily damaged by S. niger during the storage. Better post-harvest management will make it possible to add value to this legume and make it available throughout the year. The aim of this study was to gain a better understanding of the various post-harvest practices applied to sorrel(...)

Exploration of entomotherapeutic potential of bees’ products and termite nests from Burkina Faso
Mamadou Ouango, Hama Cissé, Rahim Romba, Samuel Fogné Drabo, Rasmané Semdé, Aly Savadogo, Olivier Gnankiné
In Burkina Faso, products and nests of insect are used for therapeutic purposes in traditional medicine. However, this
use by local populations is marginal and empirical. The objective of this study was to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of extracts of bees’ products and termite nests. Thus, the collected termite nests were finely ground.(...)

Longitudinal survey of insecticide resistance in a village of central region of Burkina Faso reveals co-occurrence of 1014F, 1014S and 402L mutations in Anopheles coluzzii and Anopheles arabiensis
Eleonora Perugini, Verena Pichler, Wamdaogo M. Guelbeogo, Martina Micocci, Cristiana Poggi, Sara Manzi, Hilary Ranson, Alessandra della Torre, Emiliano Mancini & Marco Pombi
Background
Pyrethroid resistance is one of the major threats for effectiveness of insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) in malaria vector control. Genotyping of mutations in the voltage gated sodium channel (VGSC) gene is widely used to easily assess the evolution and spread of pyrethroid target-site resistance among malaria vectors. L1014F and(...)

Peasant perception of beekeeping constraints and practices in large honey production areas in Burkina Faso
Dingtoumda O. G., Yamkoulga M., Sawadogo S., Kam K. W., & Ilboudo Z
Background In recent decades, agricultural landscapes have been profoundly modified due to the intensification of agriculture, therefore leading to significant disturbances in all components of biodiversity. A survey on the knowledge of beekeeping realities and the use of phytosanitary products in areas of high honey production in Burkina Faso(...)

First report of V1016I, F1534C and V410L kdr mutations associated with pyrethroid resistance in Aedes aegypti populations from Niamey, Niger
Abdoul-Aziz Maiga, Aboubacar Sombié, Nicolas Zanré, Félix Yaméogo, Souleymane Iro, Jean Testa, Antoine Sanon, Ousmane Koita, Hirotaka Kanuka, Philip J. McCall, David Weetman, Athanase Badolo
Background
Ae. aegypti is the vector of important μ arboviruses, including dengue, Zika, chikungunya and yellow fever. Despite not being specifically targeted by insecticide-based control programs in West Africa, resistance to insecticides in Ae. aegypti has been reported in countries within this region. In this study, we investigated the sta(...)

The Essential Oils Compounds of Lippia multiflora Moldenke and Cymbopogon schoenanthus (L.) Spreng Repel and Affect the Survival of the Maize Pest Spodoptera frugiperda (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) Larvae
Dimitri Wendgida Wangrawa , Antoine Waongo , Fousseni Traore , Drissa Sanou, Chloe Lahondere, Abdoul Razac Sane, Dov Borovsky, Sylvain Nafta Ou ́edraogo, Antoine Sanon
Plant-derived insecticides, such as essential oils, can be an effective alternative to replace synthetic chemical insecticides against Spodoptera frugiperda, which becomes increasingly resistant to synthetic products. This study aims to evaluate essential oils (EOs) effects on larval growth and development following feeding inhibition, growth(...)

Quantification of sporozoite expelling by Anopheles mosquitoes infected with laboratory and naturally circulating P. falciparum gametocytes
Chiara Andolina, Wouter Graumans, Moussa Guelbeogo, Geert-Jan van Gemert, Jordache Ramijth, Soré Harouna, Zongo Soumanaba, Rianne Stoter, Marga Vegte-Bolmer, Martina Pangos, Photini Sinnis, Katharine Collins, Sarah G Staedke, Alfred B Tiono, Chris Drakeley, Kjerstin Lanke, and Teun Bousema
It is currently unknown whether all Plasmodium falciparum-infected mosquitoes are equally infectious. We assessed sporogonic development using cultured gametocytes in the Netherlands and naturally circulating strains in Burkina Faso. We quantified the number of sporozoites expelled into artificial skin in relation to intact oocysts, ruptured o(...)

Study of Some Biodemographic Parameters of Caryedon serratus Olivier (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) Insect Pest of Tamarind (Tamarindus indica Lin.) Fruit, in Burkina Faso
Ki Kilo F. Marina, Koï Wenceslas Kam, Emmanuel Kabore, Antoine Sanon, Zakaria Ilboudo
The lack of food security leads us to turn to the riches of the forest, namely non-timber forest products (NTFP) and timber forest products (TFP). In Burkina, these products are a source of income for families, improving their living conditions. Tamarindus indica L. that is a NFTP, is widely used in both rural and urban areas. Unfortunately, t(...)

The interplay between malaria vectors and human activity accounts for high residual malaria transmission in a Burkina Faso village with universal ITN coverage
Eleonora Perugini , Wamdaogo M Guelbeogo, Federica Guglielmo, Cristiana Poggi, Eugenio Gabrieli, Hilary Ranson, Alessandra Della Torre, Marco Pombi
Background: Mosquito and human behaviour interaction is a key determinant of the maximum level of protection against malaria that can be provided by insecticide-treated nets (ITNs). Nevertheless, scant literature focuses on this interaction, overlooking a fundamental factor for efficient malaria control. This study aims to estimate malaria tra(...)

FOOD AND NUTRITIONAL SKILLS OF THE EDIBLE CATERPILLAR CIRINA BUTYROSPERMI VUILLET (LEPIDOPTERA: ATTACIDAE) ON NON-ORDINARY DIETS FOR INDUSTRIAL BREEDING
E. Mano, L. Roamba, A. Tankoano, NSR Somda, F. Traore, F. Sankara, AR Dabiré, S. Nacro, I. Somda, A. Sanon
The shea caterpillar C. butyrospermi has exceptional nutritional features. This insect is however univoltine, specific to shea and its larvae are mature only in July and August. Their food capacity apart from shea is poorly documented to suggest mass production and dietary diversification. This study aimed at evaluating the feeding and nutriti(...)

THE INFLUENCE OF FOUR PLANTS ON THE BIOLOGICAL PARAMETERS OF THE TOMATO RED SPIDER MITE, TETRANYCHUS EVANSI BAKER AND PRITCHARD, 1960 (ACARI: TETRANYCHIDAE)
Edouard Drabo, Aboubacar Boly, Théodore Y. Ouédraogo, Apolline Sanou, Simon Tarpidiga, Antoine Waongo, Fousséni Traoré, Clémentine L. Dabiré-Binso and Antoine Sanon
The tomato red spider mite, Tetranychus evansi, causes damage to cultivated Solanaceae plants (specifically tomato), resulting in a highly negative economic impact. In the current study, some biological parameters of T. evansi were evaluated using four plants as nutritive substrates (Solanum lycopersicum L., S. melongena L., S. macrocarpum L.(...)
