Abstract

The generalized Gause model of predator-prey system is revisited with an introduction of viral infection on prey population. Stability behavior of such modified system is carried out to observe the change of dynamical behavior of the system. To substantiate the analytical results of this generalized susceptible prey, infected prey and predator population, numerical simulations of the model with specific growth and response functions are performed. Our observations suggest that the disease on prey population has a destabilizing or stabilizing effect depending on the level of force of infection and may act as a biological control for the persistence of the species.
