Development of Turing instabilities for the go-or-grow model. (a) Spatial distribution of the cell populations in the domain [0, 1] at time t = 5. The solid line corresponds to the spatial distribution ρ2(x, t = 5) of the static population, whereas the dotted line represents the spatial distribution ρ1(x, t = 5) of the motile population. (b) Spatio-temporal evolution of the motile cell density ρ1. The horizontal axis is used for space and the vertical one for time. The three lines correspond to the same iso-value ρ1 = 0.15 and suggest an almost spatially uniform distribution. (c) Spatio-temporal evolution of the static cell density ρ2. The horizontal axis is used for space and the vertical one for time. The contour level corresponds to the value ρ2 = 1 used as the initial value of the total density. Parameter values (M, α, ρ*) = (5.0, 4.0, 0.9) are identical to those used in Figure 1.
