Abstract




In this work, we consider a mathematical model of an omnivorous ecosystem in which intermediate predators are infected by parasites. We first establish the boundeness and positivity of solution with conditions. Then the existence and local stability of all equilibria are clarified in R4. Finally, some global dynamics will be analyzed.
