  abstract = {{T}rypanosomatidae are a dangerous family of {E}uglenobionta parasites that threaten the health and economy of millions of people around the world. {M}ore precisely describing the population biology and reproductive mode of such pests is not only a matter of pure science, but can also be useful for understanding parasite adaptation, as well as how parasitism, specialization (parasite specificity), and complex life cycles evolve over time. {S}tudying this parasite’s reproductive strategies and population structure can also contribute key information to the understanding of the epidemiology of associated diseases; it can also provide clues for elaborating control programs and predicting the probability of success for control campaigns (such as vaccines and drug therapies), along with emergence or re-emergence risks. {P}opulation genetics tools, if appropriately used, can provide precise and useful information in these investigations. {I}n this paper, we revisit recent data collected during population genetics surveys of different {T}rypanosoma species in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica. {R}eproductive modes and population structure depend not only on the taxon but also on the geographical location and data quality (absence or presence of {DNA} amplification failures). {W}e conclude on issues regarding future directions of research, in particular vis-{\`a}-vis genotyping and sampling strategies, which are still relevant yet, too often, neglected issues.},
