Abstract

<p style='text-indent:20px;'>In this paper, we propose a nutrient-phytoplankton model with toxic effects governed by the Holling-type II functional. We conduct qualitative analysis on the system and its steady state problem. In particular, Turing instability of the unique constant steady state, the existence and nonexistence of nonconstant steady states are analyzed. Our results show some more delicate influences of the toxic effect of Holling-type II functional on the formation of Turing pattern, compared to the model with toxic effect of the Holling-type III functional proposed in [<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b7">7</xref>].</p>
