Figure 8From: A simple model for the early events of quorum sensing in Pseudomonas aeruginosa: modeling bacterial swarming as the movement of an "activation zone"The effect of over-consumption on the swarming population. The effect of over-consumption on the swarming population. A) Relative population size (compared to that of WT model);B) Relative speed (compared to that of WT model). Over-consumption is expressed as nutrient-intake divided by that of the WT. The long range swarming fitness is plotted as a function of over-consumption in the inset in B).Back to article page
