Campylobacter is a major agent of gastroenteritis worldwide. The incidence and prevalence of campylobacteriosis have been increasing in both developed and developing countries over the last decade. In this study, 197 strains of successive Campylobacter-like were identified in French laboratories in September 2018. Bacterial isolates from clini(...)

With high annual mortality rates among young children, antimicrobial resistant salmonellosis is considered a major public health concern worldwide. Antimicrobial resistant salmonellosis is a worldwide health issue, particularly in low income countries with high microbially-derived food contaminations. As a result, it is important to better und(...)

Effects of Three Different Planting Techniques on Soil Water Content, Survival, and Growth of Senegalia Seedlings on Semi-Arid Degraded Lands in Burkina Faso
Philippe Bayen, Anne Mette Lykke, Boubacar M. Moussa, Fidèle Bognounou, Adjima Thiombiano
Land degradation exacerbates poverty and food shortages in Sub-Saharan Africa. Tree planting is traditionally used to restore degraded lands, but the tree species used are often poorly adapted to the local climate conditions. We evaluated the suitability and efficiency of three planting techniques (half-moon, standard plantation and zaï) in a(...)

Le mythe du sacré dans la protection du bosquet dans la ville d’Ouagadougou
Béli Mathieu DAÏLA
Le bosquet sacré est un îlot de végétation situé à
proximité des villages et villes. Il est souvent présenté comme
une forêt naturelle, préservée de l'action humaine en respect
aux traditions. Cette forêt inspire la crainte du fait qu’elle
abrite des esprits et tout un mythe est conçu autour de celle-ci.
Dans la tradition, les bosquets sa(...)

La géomancie ou l’esthétique divinatoire dans l’Etrange destin de Wangrin d’Amadou Hampaté Ba
Béli Mathieu DAÏLA et Oboussa SOUGUE
Les pratiques divinatoires sont courantes dans les sociétés traditionnelles africaines. La divination se veut l’art de prédire l’avenir, le futur ou de découvrir ce qui est caché, par le moyen des sciences occultes. Et justement, parlant de sciences occultes, la géomancie se veut l’une d’elles. Elle est une pratique sociale consistant à faire(...)

Agricultural land use reduces plant biodiversity and carbon storage in tropical West African savanna ecosystems: Implications for sustainability
Larba Hubert Balima, Blandine Marie Ivette Nacoulma, Philippe Bayen, François N’Guessan Kouamé, Adjima Thiombiano
Savanna ecosystems in tropical West Africa undergo severe land use pressure, resulting in ecosystem degradation and biogenic carbon emissions. In such context, highlighting the key ecological attributes of land degradation and the underlying processes are essential within the national adaptation and mitigation plans. This study analyzed the im(...)

Woody species composition, diversity and vegetation structure of two protected areas along a climatic gradient in Burkina Faso (West Africa)
Moussa Ganamé, Philippe Bayen, Issaka Ouédraogo, Kangbéni Dimobe, Adjima Thiombiano
Climate variability added to anthropogenic pressures leads to habitat fragmentation, degradation and loss of forest ecosystem resources in Burkina Faso. Studying vegetation structure and woody species composition is important in monitoring vegetation dynamics for efficient forest management. This study was carried out to characterize woody veg(...)

Les enchères de contrats agroenvironnementaux : comparaison expérimentale entre contrainte d’objectif et contrainte de budget
Toho Hien, Raphaële Préget, Mabel Tidball
Le régulateur qui met en place une enchère agro-environnementale annonce généralement le budget dont il dispose et alloue les contrats aux agriculteurs jusqu'à épuisement du budget. Cependant, la théorie des enchères considère plutôt des enchères dans lesquelles c'est le nombre d'unités en vente qui est annoncé et qui permet de calculer la str(...)

Cowpea production is hampered by several abiotic and biotic constraints. Parasitic weed Alectra vogelii is a formidable biotic constraint in cowpea production. This study was implemented to determine gene actions involved in cowpea seed size and its resistance to Alectra in order to determine the appropriate breeding approach to develop resist(...)

Abstract The dearth of ecological data from protected areas at relevant scales challenges conservation practice in West Africa. We conducted the first camera survey for Burkina Faso and Niger to elucidate interactions between resource users and mammals in the largest protected area complex in West Africa (W‐Arly‐Pendjari, WAP). We differentiat(...)
