For the cubic BDIM (d = 3) and for the largest family of size N in each genome, the table shows the probability of formation P^(d)(1,N), mean number of events before extinction of the largest family e^(d)_N; mean number of events before formation of the largest family from a singleton, f^(d)_N; mean times of formation M^(d)_N and extinction E^(d)_N (in 1/λ units); the value of coefficient c^(d)_du = r_duvλ; mean times of formation T^(d)_N in Ga (10⁹ yrs) under r_du = 2 × 10^-8. The model parameters were the same as for the linear model according to (2.4).
