Mean and one standard deviation of the time instant, termed the switch point here, at which the non-aging phenotype becomes more abundant than the aging one (and eventually expels the latter). Switch point equal to 500 means that this did not happen before the end of simulation run, which nonetheless nearly always corresponded to the 100% dominance of the aging phenotype. Parameter values: (a) b0 = 1.5 and (b) b0 = 3; other parameters are as in Table 1, with ps = 0.5, pc = 0.5, and P = 0. Based on 20 simulation runs for each simulated scenario.
