A Keller-Segel model for C elegans L1 aggregation
Fig 6
Full-scale attractant+repellent simulation.
Simulation of the attractant+repellent model on a 6 × 6 cm domain. The simulation began with 68 400 worms in a 2 cm diameter circle at the center of the plate (inner red circle). (S6 Video shows the entire time course.) The spatial units are centimeters. The two numbers below the plot are the minimum and maximum values of the plotted function over the entire 6 cm × 6 cm domain. Density is muted in a central 2 cm diameter circle, corresponding to where the worms were initially placed, to suggest the region in which we think influences not included in our model might be important.
