Asymmetric diffusion in a two-patch consumer-resource system
作者：
Highlights：
• A consumer-resource model is extended from symmetric to asymmetric diffusion.
• Global dynamics of the subsystem are exhibited.
• Heterogeneously distributed resources with asymmetric diffusion can support high population size.
• Intermediate asymmetry is favorable for total population abundance.
• The results reverse previous theory with symmetric diffusion and coincide with real observation.
