Abstract
In this paper, we investigate a diffusive avian influenza model with general incidence rate, the threshold dynamics for the model is completely characterized by the basic reproduction number \({\mathcal {R}}_{0}\). It is shown that if \({\mathcal {R}}_{0}<1\) the disease-free steady state is globally asymptotically stable and the disease dies out; if \({\mathcal {R}}_{0}>1\) then the disease persists. Finally, a numerical example is provided to support the theoretical analysis. Our model extended the previous known results.
