Oscillations in the average amount of self-replicating and parasite molecules per compartment as a function of the round number for $d=19$, $K=60$, and $\Lambda =5$. (a) Average population size $〈\overline{m}〉$ of replicators and $〈\overline{n}-\overline{m}〉$ of parasites after the growth step plotted vs. round number. (b) Fraction x of replicators and average $\lambda$ of inoculum size. Notice that the oscillations rebound close to the line $\lambda =1$.
