We investigated the occurrence of the L1014F and L1014S kdr mutations in malaria vector populations
in Burkina Faso (West Africa). A cross-sectional survey was conducted at 10 sites all located in cotton
cultivation areas which are assumed to be the major insecticide resistance selection foci in Burkina Faso.
The hot ligation method was use(...)

Rotavirus in diarrheal children in rural Burkina Faso: high prevalence of genotype G6P[6]
Johan Nordgren, Isidore Juste O Bonkoungou, Leon W Nitiema, Sumit Sharma, Djeneba Ouermi, Jacques Simpore, Nicolas Barro, Lennart Svensson
Group A rotavirus (RVA) is the most common cause of severe gastroenteritis in young children globally, and responsible for a significant number of deaths in African countries. While vaccines are available, trials have shown a lesser efficacy in Africa. One of the reasons could be the prevalence and/or emergence of unusual or novel RVA strains,(...)

Modélisation de la combustion d’un mélange de matériaux cellulosique et plastique dans un four de potier : Influence des débits d’air primaires et secondaires sur les émissions de NO, CO2 et O2
Salifou K. Ouiminga, Thomas Rogaume, Tizane Daho, Samuel Ouoba, Jean Koulidiati.
This work concerns the study of the influence of air flow on yields of gas emissions during the combustion of a mixture of millet stalks and polyethylene bags in a prototype of kiln. During these investigations, we looked at the rate of residual oxygen (O2) and emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen monoxide (NO) as a function of prima(...)

A SVM-based incremental anti-pattern detection approach.
Abdou Maiga, Nasir Ali, Neelesh Bhattacharya, Aminata Saban_e, Yann-Gael Gueheneuc, Giuliano Antoniol, Esma Ameur. SMURF
In current, typical software development projects, hundreds of developers work asynchronously in space and time and may introduce anti-patterns in their software systems because of time pressure, lack of understanding, communication, and-or skills. Anti-patterns impede development and maintenance activities by making the source code more diffi(...)

Use of biopesticides in the perspective of chemical resistance management in Western Africa: The cases of Bemisia tabaci (Homotera: Aleyrodidae) and Anopheles gambiae (Diptera: Culicidae)
Olivier Gnankine
Organic pesticides are used against agricultural
pests in order to improve yields in Western Africa.
Pyrethroid (PY), Organophosphates (OP) and
Carbamates (CX) are the chemical pesticides mainly
used. Unfortunately, these chemicals continue to
select new resistant populations of B. tabaci, a
polyphagous whitefly. Indirectly, the chemical(...)

The influence of termite-induced heterogeneity on savanna vegetation along a climatic gradient in West Africa
Arne Erpenbach, Markus Bernhardt-Römermann, Rüdiger Wittig, Adjima Thiombiano and Karen Hahn
Termites are renowned ecosystem engineers. Their mounds have been described as an important element of savanna vegetation dynamics, but little is known about their large-scale impact on vegetation composition. To investigate the influence of termite-induced heterogeneity in savannas along a climatic gradient in West Africa termite mound vegeta(...)
