Phenotypic Heterogeneity and the Evolution of Bacterial Life Cycles

Colonization of surface at end of evolution.
Representative surfaces at the end of evolution with sticky cells (red) and non-sticky cells (blue). Cells are attached to a hexagonal grid (black lines). Surfaces are shown for independent simulations at different relative cell division rates of sticky cells (R) and for the three differentiation strategies (see Fig 1).
