Alternatives: "a slight surplus" or "a small overage".
LoF-intolerant genes also carry a modest excess of inherited PTVs, although the strongest de novo-affected genes contribute little to this excess, thus suggesting that the excess of inherited risk resides in lower-penetrant genes.

There is an excess of spring births, albeit a numerically modest excess, among people with MS with the implication that pregnancy-associated factors may be relevant to the risk of MS. There is also some evidence of season of birth effects in HD with a slight excess of spring births in young people with HD[ 23].
A modest nonsignificant excess risk was found among men and for less than 10 years after cholelithiasis, but no excess risk could be found after 10 or more years.
The key steps are highly efficient binary ligation under conditions where the vector is relatively dilute, with only a modest molar excess of insert, followed by efficient electrotransformation into Escherichia coli.
