摘要
Dynamical behaviours of a tritrophic food chain model with strong Allee effect in the prey are studied in this paper. Positivity and boundedness of the system are discussed. Some global results on extinction of the species are derived. Stability analysis of the equilibrium points is presented. The effect of discrete time-delay is studied, where the delay may be regarded as the gestation period of the superpredator. Numerical simulations are carried out to validate our analytical findings. Implications of our analytical and numerical findings are discussed critically. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
