Computational analysis of stochastic delay dynamics in maize streak virus.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

The primary goal of this research is to analyze the transmission dynamics of Maize Streak Virus (MSV) by means of a computational and stochastic modeling technique where the time delay and uncertainty factors in the epidemic process are vital considerations.

Methodology

A compartmental MSV deterministic model was established, which later got an extension to a stochastic delay differential system having five biological compartments consisting of susceptible, insecticide-treated, exposed, infected, and recovered plants. Analytical methods were employed to find the maize streak-free and endemic equilibriums and to derive the treatment reproduction number. The stability of the deterministic and stochastic systems was studied. The numerical methods used for comparison
