Healthy or unhealthy migrants? Identifying internal migration effects on mortality in Africa using health and demographic surveillance systems of the INDEPTH network
B. SOURA
Migration has been hypothesised to be selective on health but this healthy migrant hypothesis has generally been tested at destinations, and for only one type of flow, from deprived to better-off areas. The circulatory nature of migration is rarely accounted for. This study examines the relationship between different types of internal migratio(...)

Assessment of schistosomiasis and intestinal helminths following mass drug administration in the Centre and Plateau Central regions of Burkina Faso
Dramane Zongo, Mohamed Bagayan, Simon Tiendrébeogo, François Drabo, Hamado Ouedraogo, Boubacar Savadogo, Issouf Bamba, Fanny Yago-Vienne, Yaobi Zhang et Jean Noel Poda
Schistosomiasis is the most important waterborne disease in Sub-Saharan Africa. Transmission is
governed by the spatial distribution of specific freshwater snails that act as intermediate hosts and human water
contact patterns. In developing countries, such as Burkina Faso it remains a serious health problem, which
management face important(...)

First reports of Cotton leaf curl Gezira virus and Okra yellow crinkle virus associated with okra leaf curl disease in Cote d'Ivoire.
K. Séka, A. Ouattara, K.P. Assiri, K.D. Kra, M. Hoareau, P. Lefeuvre, H. Atta Diallo, J.M. Lett
Okra leaf curl disease (OLCD) is commonly observed in okra (Abelmoschus esculentus) crops in several African countries. Affected plants are severely stunted with apical leaf curl (upward or downward), distortion and thickening of the veins. In Africa, OLCD is associated with a complex of several strains of two begomovirus species: Cotton leaf(...)

Controllability of nonlinear degenerate parabolic cascade systems
Mamadou BIRBA, Oumar TRAORE
This article studies of null controllability property of nonlinear coupled one dimensional degenerate parabolic equations. These equations form a cascade system, that is, the solution of the first equation acts as a control in the second equation and the control function acts only directly on the first equation. We prove positive null controll(...)

Arnaoudova Venera, Giuliano Antoniol. Fragile base-class problem, problem?
Aminata Zerbo/Sabané, Tegawendé F Bissyandé
The fragile base-class problem (FBCP) has been described in the literature as a consequence of “misusing” inheritance and composition in object-oriented programming when (re)using frameworks. Many research works have focused on preventing the FBCP by proposing alternative mechanisms for reuse, but, to the best of our knowledge, there is no pre(...)

Introduction: in most developing countries, Cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein Barr virus (EBV) and Herpes virus 6 (HHV-6) are not diagnosed in blood donors. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence of these viruses in blood donors from the city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso.
Methods: The study included 198 blood donors of the Regional(...)

Assessing the potential of multi-seasonal WorldView-2 imagery for mapping West African agroforestry tree species
H. BAZIE
High resolution satellite systems enable efficient and detailed mapping of tree cover, with high potential to support both natural resource monitoring and ecological research. This study investigates the capability of multi-seasonal WorldView-2 imagery to map five dominant tree species at the individual tree crown level in a parkland landscape(...)

Effect of Fertilization on the Dynamics and Activity of Iron-Reducing Bacterial Populations in a West African Rice Paddy Soil Planted with Two Rice Varieties: Case Study of Kou Valley in Burkina Faso
[Otoidobiga C. Harmonie, Sawadogo Adama, Sinaré Yapi, Ouédraogo Ibrahima, Zombré Prosper, Asakawa Susumu, Traoré S. Alfred, Dianou Dayéri
Iron toxicity is a major stress to rice caused by a high concentration of reduced iron, in the soil in many lowlands worldwide. To reduce iron toxicity in the West African lowlands, an investigation was performed at the site of the University of Ouagadougou, in pots containing an iron toxic soil from the Kou Valley (West of Burkina Faso). The(...)

Comparative Effects of Light and Water Stresses on Antioxidant Enzymes Activity of Three Ecotypes of Jatropha curcas Seedlings
Razacswendé Fanta Ouédraogo, Charlemagne Gnoula, Simplice Damintoti Karou, Gérard Zombré, Jacques Simporé
Jatropha curcas is a Euphorbiaceae whose seed lipids attract biofuel industry attention. However, the effects of environmental stressors inducing resistance mechanisms and affecting the seed yield of the plant are very little investigated. In this study, we evaluated the effect of water stress and sunlight luminosity on the antioxidant enzymes(...)

Background
Apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic polypeptide-like 3G (APOBEC3G) is a potent host defense factor, which interferes with HIV-1 and HBV. Our study had three objectives, to screen a population of HIV-1 infected and uninfected patients in Burkina Faso for HBV, to screen the population for APOBEC3G variants rs6001417, rs817(...)
