“…From an ecological viewpoint, the interaction parameter areas of coexistence for two components are desirable. This method is important for understanding the regulatory chemical mechanisms of ecological systems, which provides a control mechanism to ensure a coexistence transition from an equilibrium to a periodic oscillation with desired amplitude and robust period [2,5,15,16,22,23,26]. In addition, we would like to point out that we can also investigate the Hopf bifurcation of system (1.3) by choosing the delay τ 2 as bifurcation parameter.…”
