SELFISH MOBILE GENETIC ELEMENTS. “In some cases, this peculiar form of selection may explain the function and evolution of genes for unicell POD. When a cell has low chances for reproduction, POD and the transfer of genes from the dying cell to a new host can save the genes. This process may be associated with occurrence of new mutations in the transferred genes and their improved ability to survive in the new host.” (POD = programmed organismal death).
