The authors also provide compelling evidence that germline mutation rates are not constant throughout the lifetime of an organism, and that spontaneous mutation may be more likely to occur during the expansion of male primordial germ cell precursors in embryogenesis than during other developmental stages or post-pubertal spermatogenesis.
