Prey, predator and super-predator model with disease in the super-predator

Hyperparasitoids as new targets in biological control in a global change context

“…From a population dynamics point of view, hyperparasitoids are likely to act similarly as superpredators on the prey/pest trophic level (e.g. Mbava et al, 2017), which can be observed directly by monitoring food-webs over time or recording behavioural activities. In addition to direct population monitoring, other indirect molecular tools such as barcoding or stable isotopes analyses can be used to assess and quantify the impact of hyperparasitoids on lower trophic levels (Sanders et al, 2016;Traugott et al, 2008).…”

The Impact of Price on the Profits of Fishermen Exploiting Tritrophic Prey-Predator Fish Populations

“…Let us add that many researchers have studied extended tritrophic (prey, middle predator, and top predator) models to understand the interaction of different types of species [4][5][6]. In [4], the dynamics of a predator-prey model with disease in super predator are investigated.…”

“…In [4], the dynamics of a predator-prey model with disease in super predator are investigated. In [5], the authors have studied a prey-predator model with the concept of super predator under economic perspective.…”

Dynamical behaviors of a food-chain model with stage structure and time delays

“…Pei et al [24] established a delay three-species ecosystem with Holling functional response, the dynamical behaviors of the system were studied. In [25], Mbava et al investigated the dynamics of a food-chain model with disease in species. To a large extent, the existing literature on theoretical studies of 'prey-predator-top-predator' systems is predominantly concerned with cases without stage structure.…”

“…Literature dealing with the stage structure for both predator and prey appears to be scarce, such studies are, however, important for us to understand the dynamical characteristics of food-chain models. On the other hand, as we know, time delays do exist in many systems, such as population system [26,27], economic system [28,29], epidemic model [25,30], neural network system [31][32][33][34], etc. Enlightened by the above discussions, in this paper, we intend to consider a new three-species food-chain model with stage structure and delays for both predator and top predator.…”
