Meiotic recombination plays a fundamental role in shaping genetic diversity in eukaryotes. Extensive variation in crossover rate exists between populations and species. The identity of modifier loci and their roles in genome evolution remain incompletely understood. We explored natural variation in Arabidopsis crossover and identified SNI1 as the causal gene underlying a major modifier locus. To date, SNI1 had no known role in crossover. SNI1 is a component of the SMC5/6 complex that is closely related to cohesin and condensin. Arabidopsis sni1 and other SMC5/6 mutants show similar effects on the interference-independent crossover pathway. Hence, our findings demonstrate that the SMC5/6 complex, which is known for its role in DNA damage repair, is also important for control of meiotic crossover. The frequency and distribution of meiotic crossovers are tightly controlled; however, variation in this process can be observed both within and between species. Using crosses of two natural Arabidopsis thaliana accessions, Col and Ler, we mapped a crossover modifier locus to semidominant polymorphisms in SUPPRESSOR OF NPR1-1 INDUCIBLE 1 (SNI1), which encodes a component of the SMC5/6 complex. The sni1 mutant exhibits a modified pattern of recombination across the genome with crossovers elevated in chromosome distal regions but reduced in pericentromeres. Mutations in SNI1 result in reduced crossover interference and can partially restore the fertility of a Class I crossover pathway mutant, which suggests that the protein affects noninterfering crossover repair. Therefore, we tested genetic interactions between SNI1 and both RECQ4 and FANCM DNA helicases, which showed that additional Class II crossovers observed in the sni1 mutant are FANCM independent. Furthermore, genetic analysis of other SMC5/6 mutants confirms the observations of crossover redistribution made for SNI1. The study reveals the importance of the SMC5/6 complex in ensuring the proper progress of meiotic recombination in plants.
