In this paper we give conditions for the existence of, and describe the asymtotic behavior of, radial positive solutions of the nonlinear elliptic equation of Emden-Fowler type with convection term
Δpu+αuq−1u+βx.∇(uq−1u)=0
for x∈ℝN, where p > 2, q > 1, N ≥ 1, α > 0, β > 0 and Δp is the p-Laplacian operator. In particular, we determine lim_r→∞ rpq+1−pu(r) when αβ>N>p and q≥N(p−1)+pN−p.
