Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) are central components of the machinery mediating cell membrane fusion and intracellular vesicular trafficking in eukaryotic cells, and have been well-documented to play critical roles in growth, development, and pathogenesis in the filamentous fungal plant pathogens. However, little is known about the contributions of SNAREs to the physiology and biocontrol potential in entomopathogenic filamentous fungi. Here, a genome-wide analysis of SNARE genes was performed taking advantage of the available whole genome sequence of Beauveria bassiana, a classical entomopathogenic fungus. Based on the compared genomic method, 22 genes encoding putative SNAREs were identified from the whole genome of B. bassiana, and were classified into four groups (7 Qa-, 4 Qb-, 6 Qc-, and 5 R-SNAREs) according to the conserved structural features of their encoding proteins. An R-SNARE encoding gene BbSEC22 was further functionally characterized by gene disruption and complementation. The BbSEC22 null mutant showed a fluffy appearance in mycelial growth and an obvious lag in conidial germination. The null mutant also exhibited significantly increased sensitivity to oxidative stress and cell wall perturbing agents and reduced the yield of conidia production by 43.1% compared with the wild-type strain. Moreover, disruption of BbSEC22 caused a significant decrease in conidial virulence to Spodoptera litura larvae. Overall, our results provide an overview of vesicle trafficking in B. bassiana and revealed that BbSec22 was a multifunctional protein associated with mycelial growth, sporulation, conidial germination, stress tolerance, and insecticidal virulence.

BACKGROUND: The ectoparasitic wasp Habrobracon hebetor (Hymenoptera, Braconidae) can parasitize various species of lepidopteran pests. To maximize its potential for biological control, it is necessary to investigate its gene function through genome engineering. RESULTS: To test the effectiveness of genome engineering system in H. hebetor, we injected the mixture of clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) ‐associated (Cas) 9 protein and single guide RNA(s) targeting gene white into embryos. The resulting mutants display a phenotype of eye pigment loss. The phenotype was caused by small indel and is heritable. Then, we compared some biological parameters between wildtype and mutant, and found there were no significant differences in other parameters except for the offspring female rate and adult longevity. In addition, cocoons could be used to extract genomic DNA for genotype during the gene editing process without causing unnecessary harm to H. hebetor. CONCLUSION: Our results demonstrate that the CRISPR/Cas9 system can be used for H. hebetor genome editing and it does not adversely affect biological parameters of the parasitoid wasps. We also provide a feasible non‐invasive genotype detection method using genomic DNA extracted from cocoons. Our study introduces a novel tool and method for studying gene function in H. hebetor, and may contribute to better application of H. hebetor in biocontrol. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

- Abstract
Whereas personality psychologists come to recognize that personality traits are both relatively stable and also open to adapt to life experiences (i.e., the socialization effect), organizational personality research has still been dominated by the dispositional trait perspective with a major focus on the selection effect of personality traits. Moreover, previous research has yet to reveal reliable and solid sources of personality change attributed to work experiences. We conducted a continuous time meta-analysis of longitudinal studies with large representative samples (K=11, N = 134,515) to investigate how extrinsic career success (i.e., income) modifies employee Big Five personality development at the within-person level. Furthermore, we investigated the selection effect of personality traits on subsequent income changes. We found significant and positive socialization effects of income changes on subsequent changes of conscientiousness and emotional stability, and such an effect on change of extraversion and agreeableness were negative. The selection effect of conscientiousness and emotional stability on subsequent income were positive, and such an effect for extraversion was negative. Our research contributes to the organizational personality and personality development literature by highlighting the reciprocal relationships between personality traits and extrinsic career success and the critical role of time in such relationships.

- Abstract
Among the myriad grand challenges in today's world as highlighted by the AOM 2024 conference theme, economic inequality is one of prime concern (Bapuji et al., 2020). While some people enjoy professional and economic success in society and the workplace, many are classified as the "working poor" and face enduring financial strains (Leana et al., 2012). Traditionally, organizational researchers have used personality and other individual differences to predict job outcomes and career success (Ng et al., 2005; Seibert et al., 2024) but have rarely examined the long-term, fundamental impact of work on the person. With widening economic inequality, a pressing research question is how people change as a result of their career success, or the lack thereof. Using innovative research methods and data sources with high ecological validity, the current symposium addresses this question with four presentations that investigated the longitudinal, reciprocal relationships between career success/stress (extrinsic and intrinsic career success, chronic underemployment, and job/financial stress) and changes in individual characteristics previously considered stable, including personality traits, goals, and values. Collectively, this set of studies contributes to the organizational literature by answering the recent call for management scholars to study income and income inequality as drivers of organizational behavior (Leana & Meuris, 2015) and further expands the outcomes of interest from short-term cognition, affect, and behavior to long-term changes and development of the person. Examining changes in personality and other individual characteristics as a result of work experiences and illuminating the dynamics of individual differences, rather than treating them as stable dispositions, represent a major paradigm shift for understanding worker behavior and experience in organizational research (Judge, 2023). This set of studies also advances careers research by incorporating a temporal perspective on career success and investigating the underemployed and financially strained—a previously understudied population (Seibert et al., 2024). Practically, findings from this symposium have important implications for the management and development of employees as well as effective utilization of human capital in society.

The literature on personality trait development has mainly focused on influences of life experiences in one single life domain (e.g., work or family) separate from one another and has primarily examined personality development in early life stages. Thus, less attention has been devoted to influences from interplays across different life domains and personality development in middle and late adulthood. Synthesizing the literature on personality science and organizational research, we built a theoretical model and investigated what, how, and why the interplay between two central life domains—work and family—may be related to personality trait development of people at their middle and late life stages, and more important, change-related reciprocal relationships between personality traits and work–family experiences. Generally, convergent findings with data from two longitudinal studies (National Survey of Midlife in the United States, maximum N = 3,192, three waves; and Health and Retirement Study, maximum N = 1,133, three waves except anxiety) revealed that work-to-family conflict, family-to-work conflict, work-to-family facilitation, and family-to-work facilitation mostly had lagged effects on changes of Conscientiousness, Extraversion, and Neuroticism, and the influences were generally channeled through changes of anxiety. Personality traits also had lagged influences on changes of work–family experiences, with some influences deteriorating over time. Change-related reciprocal relationships were recorded mainly between Neuroticism and Extraversion with work–family experiences. Some selection effects were larger than socialization effects. Our research contributes to the personality and the work–family literature and represents a useful example of cross-fertilization of research in different areas of psychology to advance personality research.
