Effect Of Agromorphological Diversity and Botanical Race on Biochemical Composition in Sweet Grains Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] of Burkina Faso
Nerbéwendé Sawadogo, Mahamadi Hamed Ouédraogo,Renan Ernest Traoré, Kiswendsida Romaric Nanéma, Zakaria Kiébré, Pauline Bationo-Kando, Baloua Nebié, Mahamadou Sawadogo, Jean-Didier Zongo
Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench is an under-harvested crop in Burkina Faso. It is
grown mainly for its sweet grains in the pasty stage. However, the precocity of the
cycle and the sweet grains at pasty stage make it an interesting plant with agro
alimentary potential during the lean season. This study was carried out to identify the
main su(...)

Background: It is now well-known that some antimalarials such as primaquine may induce severe hemolytic anemia
in people with G-6-PD deficiency. Antimalarial drug prescriptions must, therefore take into account the patient’s G-6-PD status in malaria endemic areas such as Burkina Faso, where the prevalence of this genetic abnormality is relati(...)

Transfer of Pseudomonas pictorum Gray and Thornton 1928 to genus Stenotrophomonas as Stenotrophomonas pictorum comb. nov., and emended description of the genus Stenotrophomonas
Aboubakar Sidiki Ouattara,* Jean Le Mer, Manon Joseph and Herve Macarie
Abstract
A polyphasic taxonomic approach including analysis of phenotypic, physiological and genotypic characteristics, 16S rRNA gene sequence and DNA–DNA hybridization analysis was used to determine the most consistent affiliation of Pseudomonas pictorum. Pseudomonas pictorum ATCC 23328T exhibited phenotypic traits of members of the genus St(...)

Molecular characterization of virus isolates from genus Potyvirus infecting Vigna subterranea in Burkina Faso
Konate M. N.., Ouedraogo M., Neya B. J., Bangratz M., Palanga E., Nandkangre H., Ouoba A., Nanema R., Sawadogo N., Sawadogo M.
Bambara groundnut (Vigna subterranea) is an African legume with a great nutritional, economic and social potential. However, one of the main constraints to this crop is viral diseases which reduced yields. Indeed, approximately 12 viruses have been reported to infect bambara groundnut. Among these, only four were reported from Burkina Faso, na(...)

Essential Oils as an Alternative to Pyrethroids’ Resistance against Anopheles Species Complex Giles (Diptera: Culicidae)
Olivier Gnankiné and Imaël Henri Nestor Bassolé
Widespread resistance of Anopheles sp. populations to pyrethroid insecticides has led to the search for sustainable alternatives in the plant kingdom. Among many botanicals, there is great interest in essential oils and their constituents. Many researchers have explored essential oils (EOs) to determine their toxicity and identify repellent m(...)
