The phrase "a diverging portion of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when discussing a part of something that is separating or moving in different directions from the main body or idea.
Example: "In the study, we focused on a diverging portion of the data that indicated a significant trend."
Alternatives: "a branching segment of" or "a separating part of".
The numerical results indicate that the diverging portion of the duct can have a strong reflective effect for partially choked flows.
The presence of a continuity line used in the diverge portion of two of the treatments was successful in moving more drivers to the left (slow) lane.
With the rudiments of the animal gene inventory in place at the time the earliest metazoans diverged, a large portion of evolutionary innovation thus has likely arisen by modification of gene regulatory networks [ 27].
HIV-1 infection results in the development of a diverging quasispecies unique to each infected individual.
Developmental biologists noticed a long time ago that a large portion of the sequence of Hox proteins diverges so fast that it is difficult to align homologues from different arthropod classes [ 33].
The galago, the only prosimian species examined here, has a conserved region that corresponds with a portion of the DupA/B region but the sequences surrounding this area are highly diverged from the other primate species that we investigated, indicating that either this region is not fully represented prior to Simiiforms or we failed to identify a truly orthologous sequence.
The resultant alignment was about 322 Mb, representing about one third of each genome, suggesting a large portion of the genome has been under strong constraints after different bird species diverged from their common ancestor.
Surprisingly, though, analysis of a limited portion of the transcriptome revealed that rat and mouse responses diverge greatly (Boverhof et al. Toxicol Sci 94 398 416, 2006).
As these species groups are restricted to different continents and diverged ca 10-15 mya [ 74, 75], CHC biosynthesis and expression have been conserved over a large portion of the D. repleta group phylogeny.
When a tag is located in a highly diverged area and selected based on a specific sequence assembly, it may not be detectable in a significant portion of samples that do not contain these assembly-specific sequences.
