Figure 6.
Asymmetrically distributing individuals between partitions delays extinction and fixation. The figure layout is analogous to figures 4 and 5. As we increase the asymmetry of partition sizes, both CCFs concentrate about the origin. Equivalently, the moments of CT|b and CT|a increase, as illustrated by the black and red numbers. The complete bipartite graph may amplify the fixation probability of an advantageous mutation [21], but it also requires more mutant population size changes to achieve fixation. This result is consistent with previous work on fixation time [26]. In these plots, r = 1.01, Sa,0 = 0 and Sb,0 = 1.
