  abstract = {{T}setse flies are the cyclical vectors of {A}frican animal trypanosomosis ({AAT}) and human {A}frican trypanosomosis ({HAT}). {I}n {M}arch 2010, the {G}overnment of {G}hana initiated a large scale integrated tsetse eradication campaign in the {U}pper {W}est {R}egion ({UWR}) (approximate to 18,000 km(2)) under the umbrella of the {P}an-{A}frican {T}setse and {T}rypanosomosis {E}radication {C}ampaign ({PATTEC}). {W}e investigated the structuring of {G}lossina tachinoides populations within and between the three main river basins of the target area in the {UWR}. {O}ut of a total sample of 884 flies, a sub-sample of 266 was genotyped at nine microsatellite loci. {T}he significance of the different hierarchical levels was tested using {Y}ang's parameters estimated with {W}eir and {C}ockerham's method. {A} significant effect of traps within groups (pooling traps no more than 3 km distant from each other), of groups within river basins and of river basins within the whole target area was observed. {I}solation by distance between traps was highly significant. {A} local density of 0.48-0.61 flies/m(2) was estimated and a dispersal distance that approximated 11 m per generation [{CI} 9, 17]. {N}o significant sex-biased dispersal was detected. {D}ispersal distances of {G}. tachinoides in the {UWR} were relatively low, possibly as a result of the fragmentation of the habitat and the seasonality of the {K}ulpawn and {S}issili rivers. {M}oreover, very high fly population densities were observed in the sample sites, which potentially reduces dispersal at constant habitat saturation, because the probability that migrants can established is reduced (density dependent dispersal). {H}owever, the observed spatial dispersal was deemed sufficient for a {G}. tachinoides-cleared area to be reinvaded from neighboring populations in adjacent river basins. {T}hese data corroborate results from other population genetics studies in {W}est {A}frica, which indicate that {G}. tachinoides populations from different river basins cannot be considered isolated.},
