Impact of the Seasons on the Evolution of Tomato-infecting Geminivirus and Identification of Plant Reservoirs Harboring Geminivirus in Burkina Faso
Alassane Ouattara, Masséni Yasmine Ouologueme, Bawomon Fidèle Neya, Kouka Hamidou Sogoba, Elise Sanon
Geminiviruses are known as responsible for huge damage to vegetable crops in many tropical, subtropical, and temperate regions. In Burkina Faso, tomato was reported as the most infected vegetable crop with the involvement of several geminivirus species despite its socioeconomic importance. This suggests and underlines the pressing need for add(...)

Modeling Height–Diameter Allometric Relationships of Dominant African Oak (Afzelia africana Sm) From West African Dry Savannas
Larba Hubert Balima, Fabrice Ouoba, Blandine Marie Ivette Nacoulma, Philippe Bayen, Moussa Ganamé, Adjima Thiombiano
Tree height is an important ecological parameter for assessing biomass carbon accumulation rate and understanding the ontogenetic development of vascular plants. Given the lack of height measurement data, height–diameter allometric models are needed to improve carbon stock estimates. In this study, we investigated height–diameter relationships(...)

In sub-Saharan Africa, children with severe malnutrition (SM) and HIV have substantially worse outcomes than children with SM alone, facing higher mortality risk and impaired nutritional recovery post-hospitalisation. Biologi- cal mechanisms underpinning this risk remain incompletely understood. This case-control study nested within the CHAIN(...)

Sorghum and cowpea intercropping response to woody residue amendments in Sahelian agro-ecosystems of Burkina Faso
Daouda Guebre , Salifou Traore, Koulibi Fidele Zongo, Edmond Hien
In West African agro-ecosystems, soils are inherently low in soil organic carbon decreasing the capacity of soils to sustain crop productivity. Woody Residues instead of being burnt or exported out of the cropping systems, can be managed to optimize soil organic carbon build-up, nutrient cycling and crop productivity. The aim of this study was(...)

Assessment of Fungi Infection on Clarias anguillaris (Linnaeus, 1758) and Oreochromis niloticus (Linnaeus, 1758), Two Fish Species Farmed in Burkina Faso
Komandan Mano, Fidèle L. B. Lamboni, Roger Ouedraogo, Noellie W. Kpoda, Justine Kabore, Kounbo Dabire, Elise Sanon, Awa Gneme
Worlwide, fungi are by far the most common pathogen in fish farming. They are responsible of important economic losses in the fishery sector. However, in Burkina Faso knowledge of fungi infecting farmed fish are scarce. As a consequence, the prevalence as well as the effect of these pathogens are not known. A study was carried out on fungal in(...)

Spatial and temporal characteristics of laboratory-induced Anopheles coluzzii swarms: Shape, structure, and flight kinematics
Bèwadeyir Serge Poda, Antoine Cribellier, Lionel Feugère, Mathurin Fatou,Charles Nignan, Domonbabele Francois de Sales Hien, Pie Muller, Olivier Gnankine´, Roch Kounbobr Dabire´, Abdoulaye Diabate´, Florian T. Muijres, and Olivier Roux
Malaria mosquitoes mate in swarms, but how these swarms are formed and maintained remains poorly understood. We characterized three-dimensional spatiotemporal flight kinematics of Anopheles coluzzii males swarming at sunset above a ground marker. The location, shape, and volume of swarms were highly stereotypic, consistent over the complete sw(...)
