Chemotaxis-induced spatio-temporal heterogeneity in multi-species host-parasitoid systems

When searching for hosts, parasitoids are observed to aggregate in response to chemical signalling cues emitted by plants during host feeding. In this paper we model aggregative parasitoid behaviour in a multi-species host-parasitoid community using a system of reaction-diffusion-chemotaxis equation...
