Iron toxicity is a major constraint for rice production, particularly in lowland ecosystems where reduced iron (Fe[II]) accumulates due to activities by iron-reducing bacteria (IRB). This study investigated the dominant cultivable IRB strains in three iron-rich rice-growing areas of Burkina Faso: Moussodougou, Tiefora, and Kou Valley. Soil Fe((...)

Herbal medicines adulteration with erectile dysfunction pharmaceuticals in sub-Saharan Africa: call to strengthen regulatory measures
Kampadilemba Ouoba, Daniel Dori, Adela Ashie, Issiaka Soulama and Rasmané Semdé
Sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing record levels of informal use of herbal medicines by the population for primary health care, with prevalence rates of up to 90% in some countries. This situation is linked to the high cost of pharmaceuticals and the popular perception that natural remedies are harmless. Furthermore, the proportion of men suff(...)

Background
The World Health Organization recommends insecticide-treated mosquito nets (ITNs) as one of the main interventions to control malaria spread. The leading driver of this intervention is use of ITN; however, socio-demographic characteristics factors, access and possession of ITN could also influence its usage. Therefore, the present(...)

Intraspecific variability among Lannea species reveals promising morphotypes and ethnotypes in the semi-arid savannas of Burkina Faso (West Africa)
Soumaϊla Savadogo, Anne Mette Lykke, Blandine Marie Ivette Nacoulma[, Balima Larba Hubert, Adjima Thiombiano,
Lannea species are among the fruit trees with high socio-economic importance in West Africa yet their intra-specific variability remains poorly studied, despite being essential for selection and domestication. This studyaimed to characterize morphotypes based on 60 traits and 399 trees of Lannea acida A. Rich., Lannea microcarpaEngl. & K. Krau(...)
