Local varieties could be a source of genetic variability. For this reason, six varieties were evaluated for agromorphological and molecular variability. A randomized Fisher's complement block with three replications was used. Pod pigmentation, seed size, stem habit and hilum color showed a difference in at least one of the 5
varieties. Statis(...)

Agromorphological Characterization of Solanum aethiopicum Accessions from the «Kumba» Group, Cultivated in Burkina Faso
Nikodème V. KABRÉ, BALMA Patrice, N’zi Jean-Claude, Boureima Sawadogo and TRAORE Renan Ernest
Solanum aethiopicum is one of the leafy vegetables with enormous economic and food potential. Unfortunately, it remains neglected by the breeding programs for Solanum melongena to such an extent that few studies have been carried out on its genetic variability in Burkina Faso. The present study is a contribution to a better knowledge of the ag(...)

Introduction: In Sub-Saharan Africa, the true extent of the COVID-19 pandemic is not known due to the low number of tests performed and the large proportion of asymptomatic cases in the populations. This was a seroprevalence study of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in blood donors to assess the extent of virus circulation in Burkina Faso.

Dengue has become the world's most common arbovirosis. In some individuals, genetic factors can increase the risk of developing severe dengue fever. Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) genes are one of the most extensively studied gene groups in human disease. The present study investigated HLA DRB1* 11 and HLA DRB1* 12 polymorphisms in dengue cases(...)

Diet-related non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are a major public health issue and a global development challenge today. However, governance responses to these diseases remain in their infancy in most low-income countries, including Burkina Faso. How Burkina Faso organizes itself institutionally and financially to adequately address NCDs is sti(...)

Ibonyé Diéni, Touwendsida Serge Bagré, Boureima Kagambèga, Oumarou Zongo, François Tapsoba, Nicolas Barro
Attiéké, a popular food in Burkina Faso, is often produced under variable hygienic conditions, which favors the proliferation of pathogenic microorgan- isms such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), a growing threat to the health of consumers. This study assessed the health risks asso- ciated with the presence of MRSA in atti(...)
