Cassava mosaic disease (CMD), caused by begomoviruses such as African cassava mosaic virus (ACMV) and East African cassava mosaic virus (EACMV), poses a threat to food security in sub-Saharan Africa. Conventional PCR assays often fail to detect viral strains in symptomatic plants due to high genetic variability and recombination. In this study(...)

Funding the Revolution: Stanley D. Levison, Resource Mobilization, and the Financial Architecture of the Civil Rights Movement
Abdoulaye DRABO & Aristide Lalbila YODA
Le récit prédominant du Mouvement des Droits Civiques (MDC) met souvent l’accent sur ses
dimensions morales et spirituelles, éclipsant l’infrastructure logistique et financière critique
nécessaire pour soutenir une lutte nationale. Cet article aborde cette lacune en soutenant que le
succès opérationnel du mouvement dépendait fondamentalemen(...)

Agroecology is recognized as a resilient agricultural system amid the ecological crisis, but
also as a social movement working towards better livelihoods for farmers. In Burkina
Faso, the dynamics among actors promoting agroecology are not well understood. Effec-
tive governance of the agroecological transition necessitates a deeper comprehe(...)

Stay-green potential and interannual stability of sweet-stalk sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] genotypes cultivated in Burkina Faso
Salif Berthé; Wendmanegda Hermann Tondé; Pingawindé Sawadogo; Josiane Tiendrebeog; , Djakaridja Tiama;, Nerbéwendé Sawadogo
Sweet stalk sorghum is grown in Burkina Faso primarily for its grain, forage, and sugar-rich stalks. However, its productivity is heavily reliant on rainfall, and the variability in annual precipitation significantly limits its contribution to household food security. In this context, identifying droughttolerant genotypes with stable performan(...)

Crank–Nicolson Method for the Advection-Diffusion EquationInvolving a Fractional Laplace Operator
Martin Nitiema , Thomas Tindano , Windjiré Some
We consider an advection-diffusion equation involving a fractional Laplace operator of order s 2 0; 1\f1=2g:. Using a combination of fractional left and right Riemann–Liouville derivatives of order 2s to approximate the fractional Laplace operator, we construct a numerical scheme using the Crank–Nicolson method. Using the Crank–Nicolson sche(...)

Copula of Bernstein and degree of discordance
Vini Yves Bernadin LOYARA, Fabrice OUOBA and Remi Guillaume BAGRE
L'expression analytique du degré de discordance multivariée en probabilités présente une grande élégance mathématique. C'est pourquoi nous nous sommes intéressés au degré de discordance. De plus, en travaillant sur cette expression, une application à la copule de Bernstein est apparue plus. Nous avons donc modélisé l'expression de la copule de(...)
