International audience ; In recent years, large data caused great concern in industry, academia and government. As an important department for scientific research and innovation, the academy portal show the level of science research innovation ability and it is a main platform of transformation of scientific research achievement. In this paper, the construction portal of Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences Situation as the background, points out the shortcomings of the current construction site, and make a few suggestions for website development in the big data environment.

Users' product recommendations in virtual communities (VCs) play an important role in social commerce, that is, e-commerce activities and transactions made via the social media environment. We proposed a moderated mediation model based on social exchange theory, to explore the role
of effects of belonging to VCs, guanxi capital, and trust propensity on users' intention to recommend products in VCs. We tested the model with 317 members of WeChat groups in China. The results show that guanxi capital positively mediated the link between sense of belonging and intention
to recommend. Further, the relationships between sense of belonging and guanxi capital, guanxi capital and intention to recommend, and sense of belonging and intention to recommend were all significantly moderated by trust propensity. Our findings provide insight into users' decision-making
process when recommending products in VCs, and have implications for social commerce managers promoting products in VCs.

Abstract
Glycoproteins are abundant within the human reproductive system and alterations in glycosylation lead to reproductive disorders, suggesting that glycans play an important role in reproductive function. In this study, we used the Drosophila reproductive system as a model to investigate the biological functions of O-glycosylation. We found that O-glycosylation in the male accessory glands, an organ responsible for secreting seminal fluid proteins, plays important roles in female postmating behavior. The loss of one O-glycosyltransferase, PGANT9, in the male reproductive system resulted in decreased egg production in mated females. We identified one substrate of PGANT9, lectin-46Ca (CG1656), which is known to affect female postmating responses. We further show that the loss of lectin-46Ca O-glycosylation affects its ability to associate with sperm tails, resulting in reduced transfer within the female reproductive system. Our results provide the first example that O-glycosylation of a seminal fluid protein affects its ability to associate with sperm in vivo. These studies may shed light on the biological function of O-glycans in mammalian reproduction.
