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(...)

Intérêt du dosage de la procalcitonine dans le diagnostic des sepsis chez les enfants.
Soudré FM, Sakandé J, Ouédraogo-Traoré R, Kabré E, Sawadogo M.
Introduction: Les résultats bactériologiques permettent de poser le diagnostic des états
septiques dans un délai minimum de 24 à 48 heures. Dans le cadre de l'urgence, des
marqueurs biologiques spécifiques d'une infection seraient d'une grande aide
diagnostique pour le choix thérapeutique. Le but de notre travail était d'évaluer l'intérêt(...)

Background:
The careHPV assay is a test for high-risk (HR) human papillomaviruses (HPV) detection designed to be affordable in resource-poor settings. We evaluated the performance of careHPV screening among 1052 women living with HIV/AIDS included in the HARP (HPV in Africa Research Partnership) study in Burkina Faso (BF) and South Africa (SA(...)

Microbial diversity and biochemical characteristics of Borassus akeassii wine
F. Tapsoba, A. Savadogo , J.-L. Legras, C. Zongo and A.S. Traore
Palm wine produced traditionally and consumed by many people in the SouthWest of Burkina Faso is subject to alteration. In this study, we carried out a follow-up of two palm wines’ fermentation during the 10 days in which palm
wines are classically produced and consumed. We monitored biochemical characteristics of fermenting wines as well as(...)

Droidra: Taming reflection to support whole-program analysis of android apps
T. BISSYANDE
Android developers heavily use reflection in their apps for legitimate reasons, but also significantly for hiding malicious actions. Unfortunately, current state-of-the-art static analysis tools for Android are challenged by the presence of reflective calls which they usually ignore. Thus, the results of their security analysis, eg, for privat(...)

Multivalued Homogeneous Neumann Problem Involving Diffuse Measure Data and Variable Exponent
S. Ouaro, A. Ouedraogo and S. Soma
We study a nonlinear elliptic problem with homogeneous Neumann boundary condition, governed by a general Leray-Lions operator with variable expo- nents and Radon measure data which does not charge the sets of zero p(.)-capacity. We prove an existence and uniqueness result of weak solution.

In Burkina Faso, cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp] is the fourth largest crop after sorghum, maize and millet and the first interest economic food legume. Its techniques of cultivation and its yields experienced a substantial improvement in recent years. Nevertheless, recurrent attacks of fungi including Macrophomina phaseolina constitute a(...)

In vitro antifungal activity of flavonoid diglycosides of Mentha piperita and their oxime derivatives against two cereals fungi
I. TAPSOBA
Flavonoids due to their various interesting biological properties such as antifungal activity were investigated in Mentha piperita leaves. The butanolic fraction obtained from the hydro-alcoholic crude extract of M. piperita is rich in flavonoids; it reduced in vitro the mycelium growth of Phoma sorghina and Fusarium moniliforme around 72% and(...)

Le transfert des modèles culturels dans l’évangélisation de la Haute-Volta, 1900-1960
Magloire Somé
La Haute-Volta, actuel Burkina Faso, a été évangélisée en grande partie par la Société des Missionnaires d’Afrique (Pères Blancs). Le personnel missionnaire était dominé numériquement par des sociétaires d’origine française qui entreprenaient l’évangélisation en tâchant autant que faire se pouvait de respecter les directives du cardinal Lavige(...)
