The REAgSb2 (RE = rare earth and Y) family has drawn considerable research interest because the two-dimensional Sb net in their crystal structures hosts topological fermions and hence rich topological properties. We report herein the magnetization and magnetotransport measurements of SmAgSb2 single crystal, which unveil very large magnetoresistance and high carrier mobility up to 6.2 x 10(3)% and 5.58 x 10(3) cm(2)& sdot;V-1 & sdot;s(-1), respectively. The analysis of both Shubnikov-de Haas and de Haas-van Alphen quantum oscillations indicates nontrivial Berry phases in the paramagnetic state while trivial Berry curvature in the antiferromagnetic state, indicating a topological phase transition induced by the antiferromagnetic order. It is also supported by the first-principles calculations. The results not only provide a new interesting topological material but also offer valuable insights into the correlation between magnetism and nontrivial topological states.
