Different trophic types such as photosynthetic autroph, saprotroph and predacity existed in protozoan. Since predation not only controls the bacteria community but also stimulate nutrient transformation and carbon cycling, the study on protozoan community structure and ecological function is one of the bases for elucidating the soil fertility.

In this model, we assume that the rate of the trophic absorption of the predator is less than the rate of the conversion of consumed prey to predator in the Ivlev-type functional responses. The existence and uniqueness of the positive equilibrium of the model and the stability of the equilibrium of the model are studied under various conditions. Hopf bifurcation analysis of the delayed model is provided.展开更多
