Background: Resistance to pyrethroid insecticides involving kdr mutations is widespread in Aedes aegypti (L.) (Diptera: Culicidae) and potentially could impact control efforts in endemic countries. Dengue cases had been sporadic in Burkina Faso for over a decade prior to the 2016-2017 outbreak that resulted in 15,074 suspected cases and 36 dea(...)

Diversity and abundance of mosquitoes in the city of Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Awa Gnémé, Justine Kaboré, Noellie Winkom Kpoda, Parfait Siéfo Gnoumou, Komandan Mano, Gustave Boureima Kabré
Countries in West Africa are subject to emerging mosquito-borne diseases like dengue fever, West Nile virus infection. This could be the result of sanitation issues due to the rapid growth of population in some cities. Since four years, the capital city of Burkina Faso is experiencing dengue epidemic without reliable data. For a better underst(...)

Abundance of Bemisia tabaci Gennadius (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) and its parasitoids on vegetables and cassava plants in Burkina Faso (West Africa)
Rahim Romba, Olivier Gnankine, Samuel Fogné Drabo, Fidèle Tiendrebeogo, Hélène Henri, Laurence Mouton, Fabrice Vavre
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(...)

Comparative biology parameters of Q1 and Q3 genotypes of Bemisia tabaci MED (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) on two host plants in Burkina Faso, West Africa
Rahim Romba & Olivier Gnankiné
The biological parameters studies on Bemisia tabaci MED Q1 and Q3 genotypes in tropical areas are very scarce and could provide interesting insights for pest management programmes. The life history traits and demographic parameters of Q1 and Q3 genotypes of B. tabaci MED (Gennadius) were studied on Lantana camara (L.) and Solanum incanum (L.)(...)

Susceptibility of MED-Q1 and MED-Q3 biotypes of Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) populations to essential and seed Oils
Drabo Samuel Fogné, Gnankine Olivier, Bassolé Imaël Henry Nestor, Nébié Roch Charles, Mouton Laurence
Bemisia tabaci (Gennadius) (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) is a major pest of many agricultural and ornamental crops
in tropical and subtropical regions causing damages that result in important economic losses. Insecticides are
commonly used in greenhouses or fields to control B. tabaci populations leading to rapid evolution of resistance
that ren(...)
