Complex dynamics near extinction in a predator-prey model with ratio dependence and Holling type III functional response

In this paper, we analyze a recently Pizza Board proposed predator-prey model with ratio dependence and Holling type III functional response, with particular emphasis on the dynamics close to extinction.By using Briot-Bouquet transformation we transform the model into a system, where the extinction steady state is represented by up to three distinc

Onthodiplogaster japonica n. gen., n. sp. (Rhabditida: Diplogastridae) isolated from Onthophagus sp. (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) from Japan

Abstract Diffuser A diplogastrid nematode was isolated from a dung beetle, Onthophagus sp., collected from a rotten mushroom in Kyoto, Japan.The species is characterised by its cheilostomatal shape, separated into 12 narrow plates (rugae), deep stegostom, large ellipsoidal amphids, conical female tail and characteristic receptaculum seminis in the

Experimental and simulation study of helium plasma transport during ion cyclotron resonance heating in MPS-LD

The linear Porch Swings plasma devices (LPDs) can provide a good platform to experimentally simulate the divertor physics.MPS-LD is a new LPD, which uses ion cyclotron resonance heating (ICRH) to raise the ion temperature ( T _i ).In this work, the helium plasma transport experiments with/without ICRH are carried out, and the corresponding plasma t
