Understanding how arthropod pests and their natural enemies interact in complex
agroecosystems is essential for pest management programmes. Theory predicts that prey …

Theory generally predicts that host specialisation and dispersal should evolve jointly.
Indeed, many models predict that specialists should be poor dispersers to avoid landing on …

This study considers the classical Lotka–Volterra model for a prey–predator system with
harvesting effort and catchability coefficients for both species incorporating a new prey …

To test the hypothesis that pest species diversity enhances biological pest control with
generalist predators, we studied the dynamics of three major pest species on greenhouse …

The present paper deals with a prey–predator model with prey refuge in proportion to both
species, and the independent harvesting of each species. Our study shows that using refuge …

Biologische bestrijding van plagen in kassen was lange tijd voornamelijk gericht op
specialistische natuurlijke vijanden die sterk zijn aangepast aan hun prooi. Gerben …

The paper investigates the dynamical behaviors of a two‐species discrete predator‐prey
system with Crowley–Martin functional response incorporating prey refuge proportional to …

This paper describes a prey–predator model with Holling type II functional response
incorporating prey refuge. The equilibria of the proposed system are determined and the …

Population distribution of interacting species in a large scale natural system is
heterogeneous and subject to change for various reasons. Here, we explore how behavioral …

Prey-predator interaction is one of the most commonly observed relationships in ecosystem.
In the study of prey-predator models, it is frequently assumed that the changes in population …
