Nutritional Characterization of Traditional Foods Based on Millet, Sorghum and Cowpea from the North-Central Region of Burkina Faso
Rasmata Dabo, Fatoumata Hama-Ba, Serge Samandoulgou, Aly Savadogo
The food and nutrition situation in Burkina Faso, like most developing countries in sub-Saharan Africa, is marked by growing food vulnerability. The majority of local dishes are being abandoned in favor of a minority of imported cereal dishes and other ultra-processed foods. This minority of cereal foods is blamed for stunted growth in childre(...)

Systematic Analysis of Factors Associated with Late Breast Cancer Screening in Women in Sub-Saharan Africa from 2014 to 2020
Akossito Hermine Tognon, Ahmed Kabore, Nayi Zongo, Nestor Bationo, Francis Tognon Tchegnonsi, Ludmila Akoyi, Abdoul Halim Bague, Maxime Koine Drabo
Research background: Breast cancer remains a major public health problem, with a high number of new cases and deaths each year. However, despite advances in research to improve this disease, there is a high rate of late detection, leading to diagnosis at an advanced stage and a reduced chance of survival. Objective: The aim of this study is to(...)

Genetic variability induced by gamma radiation on second generation of mutants M2 of Bambara groundnut [Vigna subterranea (L.) Verdcourt] in Burkina Faso
Brahime Tingueri, Mahamadi Hamed Ouedraogo, Wendmanegda Hermann Tonde, Tégawendé Odette Bonkoungou, Celestin Thiombiano, Adjima Ouoba, Daouda Ouedraogo, Mahamadou Sawadogo
Bambara groundnut is a highly nutritious food legume. However, the low genetic variability in Bambara,groundnut constitutes a serious barrier for its improvement. The mutagenesis is one of the techniques able to create genetic variability of crops species for breeding. This study aims at evaluating the genetic variability induced by gamma irra(...)

Effect of combinations organic and mineral fertilizers on the growth and productivity performance of two sesame (Sesamum indicum L.) varieties grown in Burkina Faso
Badoua Badiel, Tchoa Koné, Edmond Dondassé, Moctar Diarra, Hugues Roméo Bazié
In Burkina Faso, 85% of soils are leached tropical ferruginous soils with concretions, poor in organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. This soil poverty significantly reduces crop productivity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of organic and mineral fertilizer combinations on the growth and productivity performance(...)

Morphology and biology of Noorda blitealis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae) immature instar for a biological control perspective
Salifou Kabre, · Madjelia Cangré Ebou Dao, · Fousseni Traore, · Antoine Waongo and · Olivier Gnankine
Moringa oleifera (Capparales: Moringaceae) is a plant grown for its roots, stems and leaves. However, the leaves are
attacked by insect pests including larvae of Noorda blitealis (Lepidoptera: Crambidae). These larvae cause a significant
reduction in leaf yield and loss of income for growers. This study was conducted to determine some morpho(...)

Predicting power and solar energy using neural networks and PCA with meteorological parameters from Diass and Taïba Ndiaye
Sambalaye Diop, Papa Silly Traore, Mamadou Lamine Ndiaye, Issa Zerbo, Vincent Sambou
The excessive reliance on conventional fossil fuel-based resources poses a significant threat to our environment. To mitigate this impact, it has become increasingly crucial to increase the integration of intermittent and non-polluting energy sources into our electrical grids. However, while this higher penetration rate brings benefits such as(...)
