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

Prevalence of β-lactamase genes and integrons among multidrug-resistant Escherichia coli and Salmonella spp recovered from food samples in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso
Adama Patrice Soubeiga, Dissinviel Stéphane Kpoda , Oumar Traoré, Cheikna Zongo, Aly Savadogo
The resistance of Gram-negative bacteria to β-lactam antibiotics occurs mainly by the production
of β-lactamases. The aim of this work was to evaluate the presence of β-lactamase genes and
integrons in multidrug-resistant (MDR) isolates recovered from food. Susceptibility to antibiotics
was determined using the agar diffusion method. Det(...)

A critical review on the Ficus genus in Africa: current knowledge and perspectives for its sustainable management
SAWADOGO Youssouf, BELEM Mamounata, SABO Prospère, KABRE Blaise, TIETIAMBOU Fanta Reine Sheirita, OUEDRAOGO Amadé
Ficus is a multi-purpose pan-tropical genus of woody plants proven to be keystone resources for populations and animals. In Africa, the genus is well-represented, but the lack of summed-up information prevents its valorization and implementation of conservation strategies. This study aims to summarize documented knowledge on the Ficus genus in(...)

Badoua Badiel, Rasmata Nana, Razacswende Fanta Ouedraogo, Pascal Adama Kihindo, Edmond Dondasse, Et Zoumbiesse Tamini
Most soils in Burkina Faso are tropical ferruginous soils, characterized by poor structural stability of the surface horizons due to their high content of fine silt and sand. For this reason, the sesame variety S42 was studied under field conditions with mineral fertilization. The overall objective was to determine the dose combination of Nitr(...)
