Influence of the intrinsic growth rate and the intra-competition coefficient on the type of stability between two mutualistically interacting legumes

Abstract

Mathematical modelling is one of the techniques that can be used to model the mutualistic
interaction between two competing legumes for limited growth resources. In particular
numerical simulation has been successfully used to predict the simultaneous effect of the
changes in the intrinsic growth rate and the intra-competition coefficient parameter value on
the type of stability. On the basis of this method, a dominant stable co-existence steady-state
solution has been observed.
