The phrase "a biased set of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a collection of items, opinions, or data that is influenced by personal feelings or opinions rather than being based on objective criteria.
Example: "The study was criticized for relying on a biased set of data that did not represent the entire population."
Alternatives: "a skewed collection of" or "a partial group of".
First, HapMap examines a biased set of SNPs [16].
Furthermore, a biased set of duplicates will be recovered such that those with high sequence similarity will be over-represented.
However, several later studies refuted this notion and suggest that Leclerc et al. [ 6] used a biased set of microsatellite markers [ 7, 8].
As such, this set of genes likely represents a biased set of genes having housekeeping functions and experiencing moderate to strong purifying selection.
In addition, with increasing evolutionary distance, the most accurate expression information is likely to come from a biased set of genes, notably those having a high level of expression and low rates of evolutionary change (e.g. housekeeping genes).
The pathological surveillance strategy was active and risk-based, with the objective of detecting cases, from a biased set of samples where SBV was suspected at gross post mortem examination.
Although there is no evidence to suggest that the gene pairs in our study are a biased set in terms of conserved versus diverged subcellular localization, such a bias is possible from a relatively small sample of duplicated genes that could result in an underestimate or overestimate of the percentage with subcellular relocalization.
A conserved biased set of codon pairs was found in a dataset covering a large number of organisms from the three domains of life.
Since experimentally determined structures may be a somewhat biased set of all protein interactions, our method has the advantage of not learning on known complex structures.
This difference may be due to a smaller and more biased set of genomes analysed here, but it could also be a result of the relaxed selection pressure that are imposed on early obligate endosymbionts before their genomes become smaller and more vulnerable to change.
When PCA is performed on the same set of samples using the biased set of SNPs from the Vitis9KSNP array, PC1 distinguishes between wild Vitis species and V. vinifera, and PC2 accounts for 11.8% of the variance and provides clear separation of the V. vinifera cultivars (Figure 5B).
