DIRICHLET’S PROBLEM ON A CRACKED TRAPEZIUM
OUIGOU MICHEL ZONGO, SIÉ KAM, MOUSSA SOUGOTI, SOSTHÈNE TASSEMBEDO, KOUNHINIR SOMÉ, ALIOUNE OUÉDRAOGO, DIEUDONNÉ JOSEPH BATHIÉBO
This paper deals with solving Poisson’s equation with conditions on Dirichlet’s limits in an isosceles trapezium with two cracks. The large singular finite elements method used gives satisfactory results in all the domain of study. Numerical values obtained are very accurate for the constraint function and its first derivatives except at the e(...)

Assessment of genetic diversity in Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdcourt) landraces in Burkina Faso using microsatellite markers (SSR)
Adjima Ouoba, Serge Félicien Zida, Mahama Ouédraogo, Hervé Nandkangre, Hamed Mahamadi Ouédraogo, Romaric Kiswendsida Nanéma, Nerbéwendé Sawadogo, Elisabeth P Zida, Konaté N’golo Moussa, Congo Abdou Kader, Romain W Soalla, Mahamadou Sawadogo
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-(...)

Growing sandpile problem with Dirichlet and Fourier boundary conditions
E. Nassouri, S. Ouaro, U. Traoré
In this work, we study the Prigozhin model for growing sandpile with mixed boundary conditions and an arbitrary time dependent angle of repose. On one part of the boundary the homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition is provided, on the other one the Robin condition is used. Using the implicit Euler discretization in time, we prove the existen(...)

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 sl populations from cotton growing areas in Burkina Faso, West...
Many studies have shown the role of agriculture in the selection and spread of resistance of Anopheles gambiae sl 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 residu(...)

Calcul de la composition chimique dans un plasma issu de mélanges de PTFE, d’air, de cuivre et de vapeur d’eau dans le cadre d’appareillages de coupure électrique à air
Pascal André (1), Marie-Agnès Courty(2), Abdoul K. Kagoné(3), Zacharie Koalaga(3), Niessan Kohio(3), François Zougmoré (3)
Le climat des zones sub-sahariennes est marqué par une forte variabilité du taux d’humidité dans l’air, surtout entre la saison sèche et la période de mousson, et par un
empoussièrement atmosphérique élevé lors des tempêtes de poussières et de vents de sable. Sous ces conditions, les appareillages de coupure de type disjoncteur à air en conta(...)

Incidence of invasive salmonella disease in sub-Saharan Africa: a multicentre population-based surveillance study
B. SOURA
Background Available incidence data for invasive salmonella disease in sub-Saharan Africa are scarce. Standardised, multicountry data are required to better understand the nature and burden of disease in Africa. We aimed to measure the adjusted incidence estimates of typhoid fever and invasive non-typhoidal salmonella (iNTS) disease in sub-Sah(...)

First report of Pepper yellow vein Mali virus associated with pepper yellow vein 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
In Mali and Burkina Faso, pepper yellow vein disease (PYVD) is associated with the Africa monopartite begomovirus Pepper yellow vein Mali virus (PepYVMLV). In January 2012 and August 2013, severe yellowing, leaf curling and deformation symptoms, resembling those of PYVD were observed on pepper (Capsicum spp.) across Côte d'Ivoire. Twenty leaf(...)

New strains of chickpea chlorotic dwarf virus discovered on diseased papaya and tomato plants in Burkina Faso
Alassane Ouattara, Fidèle Tiendrébéogo, Pierre Lefeuvre, Murielle Hoareau, Sohini Claverie, Edgar Valentin Traoré, Nicolas Barro, Oumar Traoré, Arvind Varsani, Jean-Michel Lett
This is the first description of full genome sequences of chickpea chlorotic dwarf virus (CpCDV; genus Mastrevirus; family Geminiviridae) identified in papaya and tomato plants sampled in Burkina Faso. The CpCDV full genome sequences from papaya and tomato share the highest pairwise sequence identity (84% and 93.5%) with Sudanese isolates of t(...)

Study of the organoleptic quality of three varieties of dried mangos : Amélie, Lippens and Brooks during storage by enzymatic tanning techniqueof peroxidases (POD) and the polyphenoloxydases (PPO)
Aminata Belem , François Tapsoba , Laurencia Toulsoumdé Songre-Ouattara , Cheikna Zongo , Aly Savadogo *
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(...)

Water flow in soil at small water contents: a simple approach to estimate the relative hydraulic conductivity in sandy soil
M. B. Kebré, F. Cherblanc, F. Ouédraogo, F. Jamin, B. Naon, F. Zougmoré & J.-C. Bénet
Unsaturated soil hydraulic properties are key properties in the fields of soil science and civil engineering. Because of their strong dependence on water content, there are considerable experimental and numerical difficulties in their determination, specifically in the dry range. This situation is encountered regularly in arid and semi-arid re(...)

Classical solutions for discrete potential boundary value problems with generalized Leray-Lions type operator and variable exponent
B.A. Kyelem, S. Ouaro, M. Zoungrana
In this article, we prove the existence of solutions for some discrete nonlinear difference equations subjected to a potential boundary type condition. We use a variational technique that relies on Szulkin’s critical point theory, which ensures the existence of solutions by ground state and mountain pass methods
