Figure 2

The number of bacteria of genotype 0 and 1 in different grid cells of the equator section of a 21 × 21 space at one time point during adaptation in the absence (A) and presence (B) of transformation. Simulations start with a bacterium of genotype 0 located at the center of the space. Red and blue curves correspond to the bacterial numbers of genotype 0 and 1, respectively, and curves corresponding to more centrally located grid cells are shown with stronger colors. Parameters take values r = 0.1, K = 100, m = 10- 2v = 10- 4s = 0.01, (Au = 0 and (Bu = 10- 5μ = 10- 6g = 0.1, c = 0.
