Schematic of the cochlear duct showing cell types (top left) and expression patterns based on the scRNAseq data downloaded from the gEAR database. The numbers show how many outlier genes were present in the cluster; “HD” for the number of outlier genes in hearing difficulty lists, “NH” for the number of outlier genes in normal hearing lists, and “Both” for where an outlier gene was present in a hearing difficulty list and a normal hearing list. See Table 2 for clusters and for gene names. RM=Reissner’s membrane; MC=marginal cells; IC=intermediate cells; BC=basal cells; RC=root cells; SpC = spindle cells; SGN=spiral ganglion neurons; IBC=inner border cells; IphC=inner phalangeal cells; IHC=inner hair cells; OHC=outer hair cells; HeC=Hensen cells; CC=cells of Claudius; IPC=inner pillar cells; OPC=outer pillar cells; DC=Deiters’ cells
