Effects of climate on the phenology of Annona senegalensis Pers. (Annonaceae) and the distribution of associated insects in Burkina Faso
DAO Zézouma Anselme, ROMBA Rahim, JALOUX Bruno, OUEDRAOGO Amadé, GNANKINE Olivier
Climate change and global warming in the Sahelian region cause dramatic drought and advancing of the desert. This phenomenon could affect the plant survival and community composition, but even for surviving plants, it could affect their phenology and the insect community associated with them. In a space-for-time approach, we studied the case o(...)

Diversity and structure of microalgae and their potential use in monitoring water pollution and eutrophication in the Loumbila reservoir (Burkina Faso)
OUATTARA Minata, OUEDRAOGO Ilassa, ZONGO Bilassé, ZONGO Frédéric
Microalgae play a fundamental role in the functioning of aquatic ecosystems. The diversity and structure
of the microalgae community are always influenced by the availability of nutrients in the environment, which is one
of the causes of water eutrophication. Microalgae are the best biological indicators of pollution and eutrophication
