Fig. 4.
Plot of simulated coculture experiment with various ratios of WT to ST. Total population in the simulation began as 104 and grew to 106. The effective WT growth rate is 15% less then the effective ST growth rate. This represents the enhanced ability of the ST type to adhere. The other parameters are the same as for Fig. 4. (Inset) Experimental results from Kirisits et al. (3). The total experimental population went from 106 to 108.
