Meiotic crossover is a fundamental process that unlocks and generates genetic diversity and is therefore an important substrate for crop breeding. In this proposal, we seek to characterize the chromatin factors controlling meiotic crossover in plant genomes. First, we will develop a new approach which will allow us to study selected crossover hotspots in Arabidopsis with high resolution. This will be based on recombinant seed sorting with fluorescent reporters and successive sequencing of crossover-containing intervals. Next, we will directly test effects of two types of chromatin modification on crossover distribution: histone H3 trimethylation at lysine 4 (H3K4me3), and histone H4 acetylation. For this purpose, we will target histone modifying enzymes to crossover hotspots within our intervals by CRISPR/dCas9 system. This project will lead to new discoveries on the crossover control and will pave a way to generate artificial recombination hotspots for modern plant breeding. (Polish)
