Abstract: Let

{b_{j}}_{j = 1}^{k}

be meromorphic functions, and let

w

be admissible meromorphic solutions of delay differential equation

w'(z)=w(z)left[frac{P(z, w(z))}{Q(z,w(z))}+sum_{j=1}^{k}b_{j}(z)w(z-c_{j}) ight]

with distinct delays

c_{1}, l d o t s, c_{k} i n m a t h b b C s e t m i n u s 0,

where the two nonzero polynomials

P (z, w (z))

and

Q (z, w (z))

in

w

with meromorphic coefficients are prime each other. We obtain that if

l i m s u p_{r i g h t a r r o w i n f t y} f r a c l o g T (r, w) r = 0,

then

deg_{w}(P/Q)leq k+2.

Furthermore, if

Q (z, w (z))

has at least one nonzero root, then

d e g_{w} (P) = d e g_{w} (Q) + 1 l e q k + 2;

if all roots of

Q (z, w (z))

are nonzero, then

d e g_{w} (P) = d e g_{w} (Q) + 1 l e q k + 1;

if

d e g_{w} (Q) = 0,

then

d e g_{w} (P) l e q 1.

par In particular, whenever

d e g_{w} (Q) = 0

and

d e g_{w} (P) l e q 1

and without the growth condition, any admissible meromorphic solution of the above delay differential equation (called Lenhart-Travis' type logistic delay differential equation) with reduced form can not be an entire function

w

satisfying

o v e r l i n e N (r, f r a c 1 w) = O (N (r, f r a c 1 w));

while if all coefficients are rational functions, then the condition

o v e r l i n e N (r, f r a c 1 w) = O (N (r, f r a c 1 w))

can be omitted. Furthermore, any admissible meromorphic solution of the logistic delay differential equation (that is, for the simplest special case where

k = 1

and

d e g_{w} (P / Q) = 0

) satisfies that

N (r, w)

and

T (r, w)

have the same growth category. Some examples support our results.
