Abstract
Bacterial insertion sequences (ISs), the simplest form of autonomous mobile DNA, depend on their prokaryote hosts to spread in a spatially structured environment. We use a spatially explicit metapopulation model to simulate the spread of an IS that can have both detrimental and beneficial effects on its host cell. We find that, on the one hand, the spatial structure of the metapopulation and cell dispersal between subpopulations have no strong effect on the time to full infection of the metapopulation. On the other hand, factors that
