    The authors consider the reaction-diffusion equation with piecewise constant argument \[ {{\partial u}\over {\partial t}}= r u(x,t) (1-u(x,t))- E u(x,[t])u(x,t)+D\nabla^2 u \] on a bounded domain with positive constants \(r,\) \(E\) and \(D.\) Assuming \(E<r(1-\exp(-r))\) and employing the method of sub- and super-solutions, it is proved that all solutions with positive initial data converge to the positive uniform state.
