Experiments with the growth-forms of acarine predator and prey populations require a constant supply of both species. This note describes a technique used for maintaining large numbers of Tyrophagus castellanii (Hirst) and its predator Melichares dentriticus (Berl.) and of Acarus siro L. and its predator Cheyletus eruditus (Schrank)

In this paper, we consider a stochastic nonautonomous predator–prey model with modified Leslie–Gower and Holling II schemes in the presence of environmental forcing. The deterministic model is the modified Holling–Tanner model which is an extension of the classical Leslie–Gower model. We show that there is a unique positive solution to the stochastic system for any positive initial value. Sufficient conditions for strong persistence in mean and extinction to the stochastic system are established.

In this paper discussed stability analysis and harvesting effort at second predator prey populations model Holling type III with maximum profit. The step this research is to determine the equilibrium point, linearize the model, stability analysis of the equilibrium point, and numerical simulation. Result shows that obtained an interior point T𝐸2∗(𝑁1∗,𝑁2∗) that asymptotic stable based on Hurwitz stability test then obtained maximum profit from exploitation harvesting effort of second predator prey populations. This second populations will always exist, even though exploited with harvesting effort done by humans. Harvesting effort of second predator-prey populations given maximum profit (𝜋𝑚𝑎𝑥) that occur on critical points of surface profit function

In this paper, a stochastic Lotka–Volterra predator-prey model with discrete delays and feedback control is studied. Firstly, the existence and uniqueness of global positive solution are proved. Further, we investigate the asymptotic property of stochastic system at the positive equilibrium point of the corresponding deterministic model and establish sufficient conditions for the persistence and extinction of the model. Finally, the correctness of the theoretical derivation is verified by numerical simulations.

Two factors, in addition to temperature, could affect the assessment of Amblyseius fallacis as a natural enemy of Tetranychus urticae infesting alfalfa. These are initial prey density and sampling of the predator–prey populations during daylight hours. The influence of these factors was determined by propagating predator–prey populations having different initial prey densities on alfalfa in the greenhouse, recording the subsequent variation in the numbers of the two species during daylight hours, and comparing estimates of the rates at which prey entered and were removed from the populations. A. fallacis was able to reduce prey density before webbing of the alfalfa plants occurred. Prey consumption by the predator populations was judged capable of inducing the observed decline in prey numbers.

Environmental temperature and body size are two prominent drivers of predation. Despite the ample evidence of their independent effects, the combined impact of temperature and predator-prey body size ratio on the strength and stability of trophic interactions is not fully understood. We experimentally tested how water temperature alters the functional response and population stability of dragonfly nymphs (Cordulegaster boltonii) feeding on freshwater amphipods (Gammarus pulex) across a gradient of their body size ratios. Attack coefficients were highest for small predators feeding on small prey at low temperatures, but shifted toward the largest predators feeding on larger prey in warmer environments. Handling time appeared to decrease with increasing predator and prey body size in the cold environment, but increase at higher temperatures. These findings indicate interactive effects of temperature and body size on functional responses. There was also a negative effect of warming on the stability of predator and prey populations, but this was counteracted by a larger predator-prey body size ratio at higher temperatures. Here, a greater Hill exponent reduced feeding at low prey densities when predators were much larger than their prey, enhancing the persistence of both predator and prey populations in the warmer environment. These experimental findings provide new mechanistic insights into the destabilizing effect of warming on trophic interactions and the key role of predator-prey body size ratios in mitigating these effects.
