Intraguild predation model with disease
Ecosystem stability is an important issue in conservation of biodiversity. The stability of predator prey systems or competitive systems has been studied extensively. Although the two fields have been the subject of widespread research recently, no work has been done to study the effect of a disease...

Ecosystem stability is an important issue in conservation of biodiversity. The stability of predator prey systems or competitive systems has been studied extensively.

Here we analyze modification of Intraguild Predation (IGP) model to account for a disease spreading among prey. We chose the simplest epidemiological model, SI model.
