If quantum effects are at play in the evolutionary environment, then that is the mechanism. It seems pretty self-evident IMHO.
Some random adaptation introduces a sensitivity that allows that mutation to prosper and reproduce.
It's very easy to say that because you can't perceive quantum effects at the level of your personal experience, that their effect on selection is negligible, but this is a mistake a lot of anti-evolutionists take .. but over the course of millions or billions of years such effects could be highly significant.
