Visual identification of six new candidate genes with hearing impact at click stimulation. Plots show non-parametric effect size (Cliff’s delta [39], y-axis) of mutant vs. control animals for all six stimuli (x-axis). Colours indicate the threshold finding method (manual: blue, NN: red, SLR: orange). The grey dashdotted horizontal lines show the thresholds for strong effects at ±0.474. For convenience, lines connect effect sizes of the same method (Note: this is not a hearing curve, click has to be interpreted separately). For each of the six genes shown, click effect sizes of NN and SLR derived thresholds are above the dashdotted line, indicating strong effects, whereas manual threshold effects are below
