Genetic diversity and indigenous knowledge of fonio (Digitaria exilis stapf) produced in Burkina Faso
BALMA Patrice, KABORE Boukare, KABRE Vonogo Nikodème, KIEBRE Mariam, KIEBRE Zakaria, SANOU Jacob and BATIONO/KANDO Pauline
Fonio (Digitaria exilis [Kippist] Stapf) species is from Africa. In Burkina Faso, the genetic diversity of
fonio is little known. It is the same for its mode of management and the understanding of its culture.
The objective of this study is to contribute to a better knowledge of fonio grown in Burkina Faso.
Prospecting collects a permit to(...)

Assessing the competitive ability of the invader Senna obtusifolia with coexisting natives species under different water stress regimes
Alhassane Zaré , Pawend-taore Christian Bougma, Ouedraogo Karim, Oumarou Ouédraogo
Invasive species tend to pose a threat to ecosystem biodiversity, functioning, and ecosystem service provision. This study was conducted in Burkina Faso to assess the competitiveness of an invasive species Senna obtusifolia that is a less palatable legume plant in West African Sahelian rangelands. To address the research hypothesis that the re(...)

Introduction A higher number of ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) metrics is associated with a lower risk of cardiovascular-related and all-cause mortality. However, the change in CVH metrics has rarely been studied in sub- Saharan Africa. We investigated the level and changes of CVH metrics and their correlates among Beninese adults between 2(...)

Isolation and assessment of cyanide biodegradation potential of indigenous bacteria from contaminated soil.
MAIGA Ynoussa, YOUNG Suzanne, ORNER Kevin D., MIHELCIC James R., HARWOOD Valerie J., OUATTARA Aboubakar Sidiki
Eight effective bacterial strains were isolated from cyanide-contaminated soil, from which, two (S11 and S13) were tested to determine their mini mum inhibitory concentration using potassium cyanide (KCN) and potas sium tetracyano nickelate (K2Ni(CN)4). The isolates were tested for their KCN biodegradation potential (by measuring ammonia produ(...)

Bio-production of lactic and lactobionic acids using whey from the production of cow’s milk Wagashi cheese in Benin
Oumarou Djobo, Haziz Sina, Souriatou Tagba, Virgile Ahyi, Aly Savadogo, Adolphe Adjanohoun, Manuel Rendueles and Lamine Baba-Moussa
Traditional cheese is the main milk derivative in Bénin. This traditional process is not efficient and generate a lot of whey which has no real use until now. It is just disposed without being environmentally treated. Its use as a source for lactobionic and lactic acids production by Pseudomonas taetrolens and Lactobacillus casei is studied in(...)

Trends and drivers of land use/cover change in W National park in Burkina Faso
Kangbéni Dimobe, Ursula Gessner, Korotimi Ouédraogo, Adjima Thiombiano
Burkina Faso's W National Park (WNPB) is one of the country's biodiversity hotspots. Despite this Park's protection, illegal human activities threaten its vegetation, and little information about the on-site causes of degradation is available. Here we explored the extent and drivers of changes in land use/land cover (LULC) in the WNPB. For thi(...)
