The phrase "a reduced overlap" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts where you are discussing the extent to which two or more things share common elements or characteristics, indicating that this extent has been diminished.
Example: "The new design features a reduced overlap between the two components, improving efficiency."
Alternatives: "a diminished overlap" or "a smaller overlap".
BMDMs that lack OPTN demonstrate a reduced overlap between TNF and the endosomal compartment.
The transcriptomic profiles of the two secretory tissues studied are different, with a reduced overlap in the classes of molecules dominating their secretions, and indicate a large degree of specialization, with a significantly higher complexity in the salivary glands.
This also points to a reduced overlap of the SAGE and available EST data, which will result in a poor coverage of low expressed genes by non-normalized 3' UTR ESTs and in the failure of SAGE-to-transcript assignment.
It can be seen in Figure 5 B that the noise correlation causes the 2 distributions to contract along a line that connects the 2 means, giving rise to a reduced overlap.
Simulations show that these samples have a reduced overlap integral overall (as compared to samples #1 and #2) and an additional sudden drop around 300 to 400 kV/cm, suggesting a weaker Coulomb interaction and exciton ionization at these large fields (Δλ, however, is smaller as compared to the value measured for similar particles at cryogenic temperatures).
In the HCD cell, the reduced overlap between the reagent ion and analyte ion clouds leads to a decrease in the frequency of collisions between reagent anions and analyte cations.
However, small differences in PSD profiles still existed to support NGI's design claims for reduced "overlap" in its stage collection efficiency curves.
The reduced overlap of the C30 emission and the acceptors absorption spectra (MFR) leads to an decreased FRET efficiency and noticeable emission of the donor in the region of 470 nm (see Figure 5a).
Therefore alternative fluorescent labels with reduced overlap are desirable.
The reduced overlap observed is consistent with previous reports of small intersection between lists in similar experimental designs [ 21, 26, 36].
Then, when the confidence intervals of a QTL in different growing conditions overlapped, the candidate genes were searched within the most extreme limits of the corresponding set of reduced overlapping intervals, thereafter referred to as the integrated interval.
