  text: Schistosomes are the causative agents of schistosomiasis, a neglected tropical
    disease affecting over 230 million people worldwide.Additionally to their major
    impact on human health, they are also models of choice in evolutionary biology.
    These parasitic flatwormsare unique among the common hermaphroditic trematodes
    as they have separate sexes. This so-called “evolutionary scandal”displays a female
    heterogametic genetic sex-determination system (ZZ males and ZW females), as well
    as a pronounced adult sexualdimorphism. These phenotypic differences are determined
    by a shared set of genes in both sexes, potentially leading to intralocussexual
    conflicts. To resolve these conflicts in sexually selected traits, molecular mechanisms
    such as sex-biased gene expression couldoccur, but parent-of-origin gene expression
    also provides an alternative. In this work we investigated the latter mechanism,
    that is,genes expressed preferentially from either the maternal or the paternal
    allele, inSchistosoma mansonispecies. To this end, tran-scriptomes from male and
    female hybrid adults obtained by strain crosses were sequenced. Strain-specific
    single nucleotide poly-morphism (SNP) markers allowed us to discriminate the parental
    origin, while reciprocal crosses helped to differentiate parentalexpression from
    strain-specific expression. We identified genes containing SNPs expressed in a
    parent-of-origin manner consistentwith paternal and maternal imprints. Although
    the majority of the SNPs was identified in mitochondrial and Z-specific loci,
    theremaining SNPs found in male and female transcriptomes were situated in genes
    that have the potential to explain sexual differencesin schistosome parasites.
    Furthermore, we identified and validated four new Z-specific scaffolds.
