Most studies in molecular evolution rest on this assumption that the acquisition of mutations should be random across the geno. This is because mutation rates are assumed to be fairly constant over long time periods and fairly constant along the genome. Researchers use the mutation rate to help work out how closely related two species are, or how quickly a particular gene has evolved.
