Patch formation driven by stochastic effects of interaction between viruses and defective interfering particles

Dynamics of virus and DIP in cells in 2 scenarios simulations and representative experiment with initial DIP equal to 0.
A: spatial distribution of virus in cells () and DIP in cells (
) in Scenario 1 (infected cells produce virus and DIPs through cell bursting) at time t = 17h and t = 25h; B: spatial distribution of those in Scenario 2 (infected cells keep producing viruses and DIPs); C: the representative experimental results.
