Physicochemical Characteristics and Composition of Three Morphotypes of Cyperus esculentus Tubers and Tuber Oils
A. OUEDRAOGO
Tuber characteristics and nutrient composition of three morphotypes of Cyperus esculentus tubers and tuber oils were determined. The mean value for length and width of the tuber and one thousand dried tuber weights ranged from 0.98 to 1.31 cm, 0.90 to 1.19 cm, and 598 to 1044 g, respectively. Tubers displayed high level of starch (30.54–33.21(...)

Detection of genetically isolated entities within the Mediterranean species of Bemisia tabaci: new insights into the systematics of this worldwide pest
BACKGROUND The taxonomy of the species complex Bemisia tabaci, a serious agricultural pest worldwide, is not well resolved yet, even though species delimitation is critical for designing effective control strategies. Based on a threshold of 3.5% mitochondrial (mtCOI) sequence divergence, recent studies have identified 28 putative species. Amon(...)

Three years of insecticide resistance monitoring in Anopheles gambiae in Burkina Faso: resistance on the rise?
A. BADOLO
A longitudinal Anopheles gambiae sl insecticide-resistance monitoring programme was established in four sentinel sites in Burkina Faso. For three years, between 2008 and 2010, WHO diagnostic dose assays were used to measure the prevalence of resistance to all the major classes of insecticides at the beginning and end of the malaria transmissio(...)

Evaluation of the sensitivity of Aedes aegypti and Anopheles gambiae complex mosquitoes to two insect repellents: DEET and KBR 3023
A. BADOLO
We conducted laboratory tests to assess the sensitivity to the insect repellent 1‐piperidinecarboxylic acid, 2‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐, 1‐methylpropylester (known as KBR 3023 or Picaridin, trade name Bayrepel®) of West African strains of the yellow fever mosquito Aedes aegypti and of malaria vectors of the Anopheles gambiae complex, in comparison wi(...)

Haemoglobin C protects against clinical Plasmodium falciparum malaria
K. SIMPORE
Abstract Haemoglobin C (HbC; β6Glu→ Lys) is common in malarious areas of West Africa, especially in Burkina Faso 1, 2. Conclusive evidence exists on the protective role against severe malaria of haemoglobin S (HbS; β6Glu→ Val) heterozygosity 3, whereas conflicting results for the HbC trait have been reported 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 and no epidemi(...)

Abundance of Bemisia tabaci Gennadius (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) and its parasitoids on vegetables and cassava plants in Burkina Faso (West Africa)
The whitefly Bemisia tabaci is a pest of many agricultural and ornamental crops worldwide and particularly in Africa. It is a complex of cryptic species, which is extremely polyphagous with hundreds of host plants identified around the world. Previous surveys in western Africa indicated the presence of two biotypes of the invasive MED species(...)

Toxoplasma gondii, HCV, and HBV seroprevalence and co‐infection among HIV‐positive and‐negative pregnant women in Burkina Faso
K. SIMPORE
Toxoplasma gondii (T. gondii) infections can cause serious complications in HIV‐infected pregnant women, leading to miscarriage, stillbirth, birth defects (eg, mental retardation, blindness, epilepsy etc.) and could favor or enhance the mother‐to‐child transmission of HCV, HBV, and HIV vertical transmission. From May 20, 2004 to August 3, 2005(...)
