  1. “Third, PCD can co-ordinate the cooperative functions between compartments in the eukaryote cell and by synchronizing the behavior of phytoplankton groups.”

    Durand et al. (2019)

  2. “Second, PCD is a mechanism for the evolution of the division of labor.”

    Durand et al. (2019)

  3. “First, PCD facilitates the formation of cooperative groups by cells sharing resources or communicating information about the environment – prokaryote cells in the case of eukaryogenesis, and eukaryote cells in the case of multicellularity.”

    Durand et al. (2019)

  4. “In the eukaryote cell, PCD may be a way of ensuring that the evolutionary interests of all the organellar genomes (three, in the case of photosynthetic organisms) remain aligned [41,46,47]. The stable evolution of the eukaryote cell depended on this alignment.”

  5. “PCD is a mechanism for cooperation and overcoming some of the stresses of social living by sharing resources between members of the group.”

    Durand et al. (2019)

  6. “In addition, and as many authors have demonstrated, it is helpful to think about [[PCD]] as a “system that is probabilistic (the same input does not universally produce the same output), branching (some stages in the execution of the program can lead to a range of future states) and non-discrete (loss of viability can be transient or graded)”

  7. “For the evolution of cooperation and division of labor, individuals need to be able to communicate with each other. They need to “know” where they fit functionally, structurally, or temporally in the group.”

    Durand et al. (2019)

  8. “They suggest six “big” questions that are key to understanding the evolutionary and ecological drivers of these two steps. They interrogate the conditions that favor (i) the formation of cooperative groups, (ii) cooperation during group transformation, (iii) division of labor, (iv) communication that coordinates cooperation at the group level, (v) conditions that lead to negligible conflict within groups, and (vi) mutual dependencies.”

  9. “PCD is also a conflict mediator and involved in division of labor in social groups and in the origin of new cell types.”

    Durand et al. (2019)

    #ProgrammedCellDeath

  10. “PCD is important for the formation of cooperative groups and is a mechanism by which mutual dependencies between individuals evolve.”
