The asymptotic properties of solutions of the equation $u^{\prime \prime \prime }(t)=p_1(t)u(\tau _1(t))+p_2(t)u^{\prime }(\tau _2(t))$, are investigated where $p_i:[a,+\infty [\rightarrow R \;\;\;\;(i=1,2)$ are locally summable functions, $\tau _i:[a,+\infty [\rightarrow R\;\;\;(i=1,2)$ measurable ones and $\tau _i(t)\ge t\;\;\;(i=1,2)$. In particular, it is proved that if $p_1(t)\le 0$, $p^2_2(t)\le \alpha (t)|p_1(t)|$, \[\int _a^{+\infty }[\tau _1(t)-t]^2p_1(t)dt<+\infty \;\;\;\text{and}\;\;\; \int _a^{+\infty }\alpha (t)dt<+\infty ,\] then each solution with the first derivative vanishing at infinity is of the Kneser type and a set of all such solutions forms a one-dimensional linear space.
