Located under 3. Expression Consequences and right before 4. Pleiotropic effects in the paragraph explaining the Multi-tissue eQTL Plot.
When referencing the plot, the y-axis is referenced for the m-value instead of the x-axis.
On the y-axis of the figure is the p-value. The smaller the p-value the greater the association between the expression variance and the tissue. On the y-axis is the m-value. This is "posterior probability that an eQTL effect exists in each tissue tested in the cross-tissue meta-analysis. The m-value ranges between 0 and 1"(Han & Eskin 2011 and 2012).
