The phrase "a selection of balances" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used when referring to a variety of different balances, such as financial balances, scales, or options available for choice.
Example: "In our financial report, we will present a selection of balances to illustrate the company's performance over the last quarter."
Alternatives: "a variety of balances" or "a range of balances".
The choice of appropriate ventilator settings involves finding a balance among a selection of fundamentally competing therapeutic decisions.
A generous selection of salads balanced the heavy-hitting meats.
With a proper selection of a load balancing model for the application scenario, e-Mon is shown to achieve up to 470% battery life extension compared to the case with traditional load balancing with no battery monitoring.
A recent study of Kozancioğlu and Arnqvist [ 55] suggested that negative frequency-dependent selection (NFDS), a form of balancing selection that favors rare variants, could maintain mtDNA polymorphism [ 56].
Wiggle.co.uk stocks a good selection of painted wooden balance bikes – we like the Tour de France one, on sale for £34.99.
In either case, diversity may be maintained by ongoing selection, or neutrally, following a history of balancing selection, at the disease resistance genes in C. rubella.
In sorghum, two contrasting signatures of selection occur in the St1A and St1B gene pair, with St1A (Sb05g008280) having a signature of purifying selection and St1B (Sb05g008140) having a signature of balancing selection.
Genomic regions showing high genetic diversity within species is occasionally interpreted as a result of balancing selection, where natural selection maintains highly diverged alleles with different functions.
Both findings are contrary to what is predicted from a scenario of balancing selection with no divergent selection at exon 2. In addition, within exon 2, Fst was higher for positively selected putative ABS (Fst = 0.097; p<0.01) than for sites outside this region (Fst = 0.016; p = 0.015) (Table 1).
Because negative frequency-dependent selection can function to maintain polymorphisms within a population, it is often considered a form of balancing selection, However, rather than maintaining stable allele frequencies, negative frequency-dependent selection may cause cyclic selection, driving rare alleles to relatively high frequencies before they are selected against [ 6, 7].
