Assessment of the flora of Burkina Faso
A. OUEDRAOGO
Sixteen years after the last comprehensive checklist of Burkina Faso, about 30% more species have become known for the country's flora. Many of these are documented in the herbarium collections of the University of Ouagadougou (OUA) and the Herbarium Senckenbergianum (FR). Nevertheless some regions and habitat types are still incompletely samp(...)

Evidence of diversity and recombination in Arsenophonus symbionts of the Bemisia tabaci species complex
Maternally inherited bacterial symbionts infecting arthropods have major implications on host ecology and evolution. Among them, the genus Arsenophonus is particularly characterized by a large host spectrum and a wide range of symbiotic relationships (from mutualism to parasitism), making it a good model to study the evolution of host-symbiont(...)

Detection of mutation by allele-specific loop-mediated isothermal amplification (AS-LAMP)
A. BADOLO
For effective control of pathogen-transmitting mosquitoes, precise surveillance data of mosquito distribution are essential. Recently, an increase of insecticide resistance due to the kdr mutation in Anopheles gambiae, a mosquito that transmits the malaria parasite, has been reported. With the aim of developing a simple and effective method fo(...)

Endosymbiont metacommunities, mtDNA diversity and the evolution of the Bemisia tabaci (Hemiptera: Aleyrodidae) species complex
Bemisia tabaci, an invasive pest that causes crop damage worldwide, is a highly differentiated species complex, divided into biotypes that have mainly been defined based on mitochondrial DNA sequences. Although endosymbionts can potentially induce population differentiation, specialization and indirect selection on mtDNA, studies have largely(...)

Physicochemical Characteristics and Composition of Three Morphotypes of Cyperus esculentus Tubers and Tuber Oils
A. OUEDRAOGO
Tuber characteristics and nutrient composition of three morphotypes of Cyperus esculentus tubers and tuber oils were determined. The mean value for length and width of the tuber and one thousand dried tuber weights ranged from 0.98 to 1.31 cm, 0.90 to 1.19 cm, and 598 to 1044 g, respectively. Tubers displayed high level of starch (30.54–33.21(...)
