In this paper, based on the transmission mechanism of echinococcosis in China, we propose a discrete-time dynamical model for the transmission of echinococcosis. The research results indicate that transmission dynamics of this discrete-time model are determined by basic reproduction number $ R_{0} $. It is shown that when $ R_{0}\leq1 $ then the disease-free equilibrium is globally asymptotically stable and when $ R_{0}>1 $ then the model is permanent while the disease-free equilibrium is unstable. Finally, on the basis of the theoretical results established in this paper, we come up with some specific measures to control the transmission of echinococcosis.

Keywords: Echinococcosis, discrete-time model, basic reproduction number, equilibrium, stability, permanence.
