Although such compaction is required for the precise segregation of the genome during cell division, it restricts the DNA-protein interactions essential for several cellular processes. During meiosis, a specialized cell division process that produces gametes, several DNA-protein interactions are crucial for assembling meiosis-specific chromosome structures, meiotic recombination, chromosome segregation, and transcriptional regulation. The role of chromatin remodelers (CRs) in facilitating DNA-protein transactions during mitosis is well appreciated, whereas how they facilitate meiosis-specific processes is poorly understood.

Even among species in which genetic factors predominate, there is a continuum between monofactorial and polygenic systems. The perception that polygenic systems are rare may result from experiments that lack the statistical power to detect multiple loci.
