Title The Dynamics of One-Predator Two-Prey Models for Integrated Pest Management
Abstract We present several variations of one-predator two-prey models for integrated pest management. Features of these models include stage structure for the predator species and one of the prey species and a birth pulse (rather than continuous growth) for the stage structured prey species. We demonstrate the existence of total pest eradication solutions and permanent solutions. We also investigate the effects of model parameters through the analysis of bifurcation diagrams.
