In this paper, a bridge between near-homogeneous and homogeneous vector fields in R 3 is found. By the relationship between homogeneous vector fields and the induced tangent vector fields of two-dimensional manifold S 2 , we prove the existence of at least 5 isolated closed orbits for a class of n + 1 (n ≥ 2) systems in R 3 , which are located on the five invariant closed cones of the system.
