The Arabidopsis dsy10 mutant was previously identified as being defective in the synapsis of meiotic chromosomes resulting in male and female sterility. We report here the molecular analysis of the mutation and show that it represents a T-DNA insertion in the third exon of the SWI1 gene. Four mutations have now been identified in SWI1, several of which exhibit different phenotypes. For example, the swi1-1 and...
