The synaptonemal complex (SC) is a meiosis-specific proteinaceous ultrastructure required to ensure cross-over (CO) formation in the majority of sexually reproducing eukaryotes. It is composed of two lateral elements adjoined by transverse filaments. Even though the general structure of the SC is conserved throughout kingdoms, phenotypic differences between mutants perpetuate the enigmatic role of the SC. Here, we have used genetic and cytogenetic approaches to show that the transverse filament protein, ZYP1, acts on multiple pathways of meiotic recombination in Arabidopsis. ZYP1 is required for CO assurance, thus ensuring that every chromosome pair receives at least one CO. ZYP1 limits the number of COs and mediates CO interference, the phenomenon that reduces the probability of multiple COs forming close together. The synaptonemal complex is a tripartite proteinaceous ultrastructure that forms between homologous chromosomes during prophase I of meiosis in the majority of eukaryotes. It is characterized by the coordinated installation of transverse filament proteins between two lateral elements and is required for wild-type levels of crossing over and meiotic progression. We have generated null mutants of the duplicated Arabidopsis transverse filament genes zyp1a and zyp1b using a combination of T-DNA insertional mutants and targeted CRISPR/Cas mutagenesis. Cytological and genetic analysis of the zyp1 null mutants reveals loss of the obligate chiasma, an increase in recombination map length by 1.3- to 1.7-fold and a virtual absence of cross-over (CO) interference, determined by a significant increase in the number of double COs. At diplotene, the numbers of HEI10 foci, a marker for Class I interference-sensitive COs, are twofold greater in the zyp1 mutant compared to wild type. The increase in recombination in zyp1 does not appear to be due to the Class II interference-insensitive COs as chiasmata were reduced by ∼52% in msh5/zyp1 compared to msh5. These data suggest that ZYP1 limits the formation of closely spaced Class I COs in Arabidopsis. Our data indicate that installation of ZYP1 occurs at ASY1-labeled axial bridges and that loss of the protein disrupts progressive coalignment of the chromosome axes.
