The current paper is concerned with the spreading speeds of the following parabolic-parabolic chemotaxis model with logistic source on ℝN, \begincases ut=Δu-χ∇⋅ ( u∇ v) + u(a-bu), x∈ℝN,\cr vt=Δv -λv+μu, x∈ ℝN. \endcases(1) where χ, a, b, λ, μ are positive constants. Assume b>(Nμχ)/(4). Among others, it is proved that 2√(a) is the spreading speed of the global classical solutions of (1) with nonempty compactly supported initial functions, that is, limt→∞sup|x|≥ ctu(x,t;u0,v0)=0 ∀ cgt;2√(a) and \liminft→∞inf|x|≤ ctu(x,t;u0,v0)>0 ∀ 0(Nμχ)/(4), the chemotaxis neither speeds up nor slows down the spatial spreading in the Fisher-KPP equation.
