Abstract This paper deals with a class of localized and degenerate quasilinear parabolic systems ut = f (u)(u + av(x0 , t)),

vt = g(v)(v + bu(x0 , t))

with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Local existence of positive classical solutions is proven by using the method of regularization. Global existence and blow-up criteria are also obtained. Moreover, the authors prove that under certain conditions, the solutions have global blow-up property. Keywords Global existence · Finite time blow-up · Localized source · Degenerate parabolic system · Global blow-up

where  is a bounded domain in R N (N ≥ 1) with smooth boundary ∂, x0 ∈  is a fixed point and a, b are positive constants. The initial data u0 (x) and v0 (x) are positive and smooth functions. Functions f (s) and g(s) satisfy assumptions (H3) and (H4) given below. This system can be used to describe the development of two groups in the dynamics of biological groups where u and v are their densities. It also arises in the study of the flow of a fluid through a homogeneous isotropic rigid porous medium with internal localized source, see [3, 6–8]. The studies on the blow-up and global existence of solutions for the equations or systems not in divergence form with local, nonlocal or localized terms can be found in [2, 4, 5, 9–12, 16–21]. Parabolic equations with nonlocal sources and homogeneous Dirichlet boundary condition of the following form    ut = f (u) u + a(x) udx , 

have been studied in [4] and [9]. When a is a positive ∞constant, Deng et al. in [9] proved that the solution blows up in finite time if and only if δ sfds(s) < ∞ and a > 1/μ, where δ > 0 is a constant and μ is defined as  μ = ϕ(x)dx, 

and ϕ is the unique positive solution of the linear elliptic problem −ϕ = 1,

x ∈ ;

ϕ(x) = 0,

x ∈ ∂.

In [5], Chen and Wang investigated the corresponding system

ut = f (u)(u + a  vdx), x ∈ , t > 0, vt = g(v)(v + b  udx), x ∈ , t > 0.

They obtained positive solution of (1.2) blows up in finite time if and only if ∞ that the unique ∞ ds < ∞. Here δ is a positive constan
