An Ecosystem with HTII Response and Predators’ Genetic Variability

A new model to investigate environmental effects of genetically distinguishable predators is presented. The Holling type II response function, modelling feeding satiation, leads to persistent system's oscillations, as in classical population models. An almost complete classification of the case...

description A new model to investigate environmental effects of genetically distinguishable predators is presented. The Holling type II response function, modelling feeding satiation, leads to persistent system's oscillations, as in classical population models. An almost complete classification of the cases arising in the Routh–Hurwitz stability conditions mathematically characterizes the paper. It is instrumental as a guideline in the numerical experiments leading to the findings on the limit cycles. This result extends what found in an earlier parallel investigation containing a standard bilinear response function.
