Abstract

A competition model of plankton allelopathy with infinite delay is considered in this paper. By using an iterative method, the global stability of the interior equilibrium point of the system is investigated. The result shows that for this system, delay and toxic substances are harmless for the stability of the interior equilibrium point.
