Abstract: 

We consider а microbiological system consisting of several bacteria—virus populations which are coupled via the flow of resources. The behavior of both continious time mathematical models and discrete time ones is discussed. The origin of complex
behavior due to properties of coupling between the oscillators with regular dynamics is illustrated. While studying the one-dimentional array of discrete time population models we reveal the mechanism of rise of spatial inhomogeneity of stationary oscillatory regimes characteristics.
