✦ Synopsis
Among the six classes of Zeeman's classification for three-dimensional Lotka-Volterra competitive systems with limit cycles, besides the heteroclinic cycle case (Case 27), we construct in three cases without heteroclinic cycle (Cases 26, 28, 29) two limit cycles. Our construction gives a partial answer to Hot-bauer and So's problem to these systems.

Three limit cycles are constructed for a threedimensional Lotka-Volterra competitive system with a heteroclmic cycle. This gives a partial answer to a problem proposed by Hofbauer and So in [I].
An ecosystem is persistent if for any initial configuration, each component population which is initially present in the system is bounded away from zero in the long run. Using a recent dynamical system approach developed by the authors, we obtain a criterion for the persistence of three-dimensional
