✦ Synopsis

We formulate a variant of the "double Monod model" which takes explicit account of endogenous metabolism. Using parameter values appropriate to carbohydrate-limited substrate,bacterial prey, and protozoan predator, we study the stability of steady states under chemostat conditions. We conclude that the predator's endogenous metabolism may have a stabilizing effect at low dilution rates.

A model for food uptake, energy conversion and allocation is proposed for individuals that propagate by fission. When simple assumptions for the environment and interactions between substrate, prey and predator in a chemostat are made, the conservation laws for energy and biomass determine a structu

We consider a predator᎐prey system with one or two delays and a unique positive equilibrium E#. Its dynamics are studied in terms of the local stability of E# and of the description of the Hopf bifurcation that is proven to exist as one of Ž . the delays taken as a parameter crosses some critical va

## Abstract In this paper, a predator–prey system with stocking of prey and harvesting of predator impulsively is studied. Here, the prey population is stocked with a constant quantity and the predator population is harvested at a rate proportional to the species itself at fixed moments. Under some

Starting from natural planktonic systems, we present a new mechanism involving spatial heterogeneity, and develop a new spatial structure model of planktonic predation systems. Firstly, the effect of diffusion on the dynamics of the system is investigated. We find that diffusion of only prey or both
