Geographical distribution of ABO and RHD antigens is important for blood transfusion
services and population genetics studies. There are few data on this topic in
Burkina Faso, a multi‐ethnic country. Our study aims at reporting phenotypic and
allelic frequencies of ABO and RHD blood groups among voluntary blood donors
from various ethnica(...)

Overview of the Burkina Faso seed system: Case of the formal seed system
Lardia Ali Bougma, Nerbéwendé Sawadogo, Mahamadi Hamed Ouedraogo, Mahamadi Ouedraogo, Didier Balma, Mahamadou Sawadogo1
The seed law adopted since 2006 in Burkina Faso remains little known as its tools are unsuited to the conditions of the farmers. So, it must be revised to take into account the knowledge levels of different seed producers. To
increase crops yields, the country has initiated an extension program of improved varieties. Despite the efforts to r(...)

KABORE B., TRAORE R.E., KIEBRE Z., SAWADOGO B., KIEBRE M., NANEMA K. R., SAWADOGO M., BATIONO/KANDO P.
Solanum macrocarpon is an important leafy and fruit vegetable of Africa used in cooking. Its leaves and
fruits are also a source of income for households. Despite of its nutritional an economic potential, this
species is underdeveloped in Burkina. The objective of this study is to contribute to a best knowledge
of Burkina Faso's accessions(...)

Antibacterial and Anti-Quorum Sensing Activities of Ethanol Extract and its Fractions from Six Wild Fruits of Burkina Faso
Ablassé Rouamba, Moussa Compaoré, Vincent Ouedraogo, Martin Kiendrebeogo
Selon l’OMS, les infections bactériennes sont responsables de plus de 560 000 décès soit environ 1/5 des 2,7 millions de décès néonatals survenant chaque année dans le monde. La lutte contre les infections bactériennes repose essentiellement sur l’utilisation des antibiotiques Cependant les bactéries ont développé plusieurs mécanismes qui leur(...)

Ablassé Rouamba, Moussa Compaoré, Maurice Ouédraogo, Martin Kiendrebeogo
L'ADN est continuellement dégradé par de nombreux agents génotoxiques, notamment des espèces oxygénées réactives intracellulaires produites par le métabolisme cellulaire et des polluants environnementaux exogènes. Ces agents génotoxiques détruisent l'intégrité de l'ADN, entraînant la cancérogenèse ou la mort cellulaire. Une consommation accrue(...)
