Considering the producer's ability to discover food, the number of producers, and the energy transition rate, we can regard (theta mfrac{P t)}{S t)+d}) as the birth rate of mature scrounger, and then (i t,0)=theta mfrac{P t)}{S t)+d}S t)).
As two features explicitly regulating the transition rate, we have here considered time and local cell density.
Rather than consider the case of time-varying transition rates, we restrict attention to the "voltage clamped" case.
However, as the proliferation effect can always be compensated by adjusting the particular transition rates, we argue that this effect does only quantitatively but not qualitatively alter our conclusions.
Regarding the transition rates, we get (28) (29) so that, in this case also, we can deduce a simple relationship between the transition rates (30) The dotted lines in figure 4 correspond to the lines of equation with the value of k determined as giving the best fit to the data (and for C. albicans and for C. dubliniensis, respectively).
We started with an arbitrarily large number of seeds and calculated the number of individuals that would transition to each of the designated life-history stages at the end of month one, given the average transition rates we calculated from the data.
Estimate of the population of I with respect to all the other states needs a precise knowledge of all the transition rates; thus, we cannot reliably measure it at the lower temperatures or, worse, extrapolate it to room temperature.
If all genes in a lineage diverge with the same transition rate constant, then we expect the f2Y and f2R values for orthologous pairs to have binomial distributions centered around two means, analogous to the flipping of two coins weighted for the mean values.
We used a transition rate of 0.15 d−1, corresponding to an average incubation period of approximately 6.7.
In our simulations we modified the transition rate of activation α3 (transition from the closed state C3 to the open state O), the transition rate of deactivation β3 (transition from the open state O to the closed state C3) and the transition rate of recovery from inactivation β4 (transition from the inactivated state I to the open state O).
Next, we calculated CpG transition rate by the number of CpG→TpG/CpA per CpG dinucleotide and GpC transition rate by the number of GpC→GpT/ApC per GpC dinucleotide.
