Variability and estimating in fruiting of shea tree (Vitellariaparadoxa C.F. Gaertn) associated to climatic conditions in West Africa: implications for sustainable management and development
Loyapin Bondé, Oumarou Ouédraogo, Issaka Ouédraogo, Adjima Thiombiano & Joseph I. Boussim
Shea tree (Vitellaria paradoxa) is one of the main native oil plants with high economic value in Africa. Its fruits are used for food, medicinal, cultural and exportation purposes. However, the lack of efficient tools to assess annual fruit production of the species limits the sustainable management of its resources. Therefore, production stat(...)

Phenotypic diversity of accessions of Gurunsi eggplant (Solanum macrocarpon L.) from Burkina Faso
KABORE B., TRAORE R.E., KIEBRE Z., SAWADOGO B., KIEBRE M., NANEMA K. R., SAWADOGO M., BATIONO/KANDO P.
Solanum macrocarpon is an important leafy and fruit vegetable of Africa used in cooking. Its leaves and
fruits are also a source of income for households. Despite of its nutritional an economic potential, this
species is underdeveloped in Burkina. The objective of this study is to contribute to a best knowledge
of Burkina Faso's accessions(...)

Ecology of reproduction of Anopheles arabiensis in an urban area of Bobo-Dioulasso, Burkina Faso (West Africa): Monthly swarming and mating frequency and their relation to environmental factors
Nanwintoum Se´verin Bimbile´ Somda, Bèwadeyir Serge Poda, Peguedwinde´ Simon Sawadogo, Olivier Gnankine, Hamidou Maiga, Florence Fournet, Rosemary Susan Lees, Jeremy Bouyer5, Je´re´mie Gilles, Antoine Sanon, Abdoulaye Diabate and Kounbobr Roch Dabire´ 1
Swarming is a key part of the natural system of reproduction of anopheline mosquito populations, and a better understanding of swarming and mating systems in a targeted species in
its natural habitat would contribute to better design control strategies with a greater chance
of success. Our study investigated the monthly occurrence of swarmin(...)

Packet Microwave Layer 1 and Layer 2 Throughput in E-band for Mobile Broadband Communications
Sawadogo Moumouni, Sanou SR, Kebre BM, Doumounia A, Illa K, Zougmoré F.
We have more innovation on Ethernet wireless links nowadays. The introduction of the E-band and V-Band provide more spectral capacity to build microwave links with high throughput. That is done with Ethernet and MPLS in a microwave technology. In this paper we describe the evolution, application and best opportunities to use microwave in E-ban(...)

Contribution to the estimation by projection of the operator of a moving average with values in a Hilbert space
Armand Du Barry, V. KONANE, Dembo Gadiaga
This paper is a contribution to the method of estimation by projection.
We revisited the work of Bosq and Turbillon [3]. First, we propose
extensions and simpli ed proofs of some of the results of the article
[3]. Secondly, we proposed and demonstrated results of convergence.
Finally, we apply the model on real data of the turnover of an i(...)

Quel musée à Loropéni pour accompagner le site du patrimoine mondial ?
SIMPORE Lassina
Depuis 2009, la commune de Loropéni abrite un bien du patrimoine mondial, en l’occurrence « Les Ruines de Loropéni ». Certes, elles sont spectaculaires et des visites touristiques. Après quelques années de gestions, l’on peut se rendre compte que les Ruines ne doivent pas être la seule attraction de la région. Elles méritent l’accompagnement d(...)
