Sumario:The aim of this paper is to investigate the problem of limit cycles and global dynamics for the general case of the Selkov system. By applying limit cycle theory for Liénard systems, we first transform the Selkov systems into Liénard systems. Then the theory and techniques related to limit cycles for Liénard systems can be utilized and further developed. We obtain a new criterion for the uniqueness of limit cycles in general Liénard systems. Consequently, we address the majority of parameter cases for the conjecture regarding the uniqueness of limit cycles proposed in the literature. Finally, we present the global bifurcations and dynamical structures of the system in the Poincaré disc.
