PREDATOR-PREY SYSTEMS IN PEST MANAGEMENT [PDF]
Northeastern Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, 1991 The use of chemical pesticides frequently causes minor pests to become serious problems by disturbing the natural controls that keep them in check. As a result, it is possible to suffer heavier crop losses after pesticides are introduced than before ...

Bistability induced by generalist natural enemies can reverse pest invasions [PDF]
, 2016 Reaction-diffusion analytical modeling of predator-prey systems has shown that specialist natural enemies can slow, stop and even reverse pest invasions, assuming that the prey population displays a strong Allee effect in its growth.

Evolution in predator–prey systems
Stochastic Processes and their Applications, 2010 We study the adaptive dynamics of predator-prey systems modeled by a dynamical system in which the traits of predators and prey are allowed to evolve by small mutations. When only the prey are allowed to evolve, and the size of the mutational change tends to 0, the system does not exhibit long term prey coexistence and the trait of the resident prey ...

A non-autonomous stochastic predator-prey model
Mathematical Biosciences and Engineering, 2013 The aim of this paper is to consider a non-autonomous predator-prey-like system, with a Gompertz growth law for the prey.By introducing random variations in both prey birth and predator death rates,a stochastic model for the predator-prey-like system ...

Impacts of predator–prey interaction on managing maximum sustainable yield and resilience
Nonlinear Analysis, 2020 This paper gives a broad outline of some comparative analysis of two ecological services, namely, yield and resilience of a generalist predator–prey system.

Predator-Prey Relationships System
International Journal of Computer Applications, 2016 Most of the ecological systems have the elements to produce divisions and dynamics behavior, and food chains are ecosystems with familiar structure. Modeling efforts of the dynamics of food chains which are initiated long ago confirm that food chains have very rich dynamics.

A synthetic Escherichia coli predator–prey ecosystem [PDF]
, 2008 We have constructed a synthetic ecosystem consisting of two Escherichia coli populations, which communicate bi-directionally through quorum sensing and regulate each other's gene expression and survival via engineered gene circuits.

Cumhuriyet Science Journal, 2022 This paper investigates the dynamics of a discrete fractional prey-predator system. The prey-predator interaction is modelled using the square root functional response, which appropriately models systems in which the prey exhibits a strong herd structure,

Applying allometric scaling to predator-prey systems [PDF]
Physical Review E, 2019 In population dynamics, mathematical models often contain too many parameters to be easily testable. A way to reliably estimate parameters for a broad range of systems would help us obtain clearer predictions from theory. In this paper, we examine how the allometric scaling of a number of biological quantities with animal mass may be useful to ...

AIMS Mathematics, 2020 This paper deals with a Gause-type predator-prey model with Allee effect and Holling type III functional response. We also consider the influence of predator competition and the artificial harvesting on predator-prey system.
