Abstract: In this paper, we will address to the following parabolic equation ${\displaystyle }$ u_t=Delta_fu + F(u) ${\displaystyle }$ on a smooth metric measure space with Bakry-'{E}mery curvature bounded from below. Here $F$ is a differentiable function defined in $mathbbR$. Our motivation is originally inspired by gradient estimates of Allen-Cahn and Fisher equations (cite{Bai17, CLPW17}). In this paper, we show new gradient estimates for these equations. As their applications, we obtain Liouville type theorems for positive or bounded solutions to the above equation when either $F=cu(1-u)$ (the Fisher equation) or; $F=-u^3+u$ (the Allen-Cahn equation); or $F=aulogu$ (the equation involving gradient Ricci solitons).
