This paper is concerned with the existence and nonexistence of positive solutions to an elliptic system satisfying various Dirichlet boundary conditions. This system consists of the steady-state equations of a parabolic system which model the growth and spread of a particular gene and population living in a bounded region. The model takes into account the fact that the fitness of the individuals in the population may depend on the population size.
