Transition to Quorum Sensing in an Agrobacterium Population: A Stochastic Model
Figure 5
Transition of a Model Bacterial Population to Quorum Sensing in a Homogeneous Liquid Medium
Intracellular concentrations of TraRd (thick red line) and TraM (thin blue line, filled circles) are plotted against the population density that exponentially grows with time.
(A) Dynamics of an individual cell in the stochastic population model.
(B) Dynamics of the stochastic population model averaged over ten bacteria.
(C) Behavior of the deterministic population model.
