Accelerating Platform User Growth: Pinduoduo's Multi‐Motivational Selfish Referral Strategy
ABSTRACT Referral strategies, whereby existing platform users recruit new users and thereby strengthen same‐side network effects, have long been central to digital platforms' efforts to grow the installed user base. Current referral strategies often require the referee to complete a transaction as a prerequisite for the referrer to receive the reward ...

The multidimensional regulation roles and mechanisms of calcium in fruit quality
This review explores how calcium signaling molecule integrates plant hormones, environmental cues, and developmental signals to influence external fruit traits, internal nutritional properties, and physiological disorders. ABSTRACT Calcium (Ca2+), a dual‐functional mineral that serves both as an essential structural factor and a signaling molecule ...

In Ficus carica fruit, the MAP kinase FcMAPK4 phosphorylates the NAC transcription factor FcNOR, which cooperates with ethylene response factor FcERF5 to activate the pectin degradation gene FcPG12, thereby promoting rapid softening of fig fruit. ABSTRACT Rapid softening of fig (Ficus carica L.) fruit during ripening leads to extremely short shelf life;
