The interplay between multiple control mechanisms in a host-parasitoid system: a discrete-time stage-structured modelling approach.
Journal of Biological Dynamics 2023 December
We propose a discrete-time host-parasitoid model with stage structure in both species. For this model, we establish conditions for the existence and global stability of the extinction and parasitoid-free equilibria as well as conditions for the existence and local stability of an interior equilibrium and system persistence. We study the model numerically to examine how pesticide spraying may interact with natural enemies (parasitoids) to control the pest (host) species. We then extend the model to an impulsive difference system that incorporates both periodic pesticide spraying and augmentation of the natural enemies to suppress the pest population. For this system, we determine when the pest-eradication periodic solution is globally attracting. We also examine how varying the control measures (pesticide concentration, natural enemy augmentation and the frequency of applications) may lead to different pest outbreak or persistence outcomes when eradication does not occur.
