\item The peak signal from all the other methods (Fisher's test, VT, CAVIARBF, Elastic-net, Blossoc and naive-Mantel) is close to the disease risk region.  \item Even though the effects are one directional, C-alpha shows higher localization signal in the risk region than VT.  Our results for localization are consistent with the results of Burkett et al. for detection.  \item state ### State (after adding the plot)  that variance-component tests such as C-alpha have higher power than burden tests such as VT when the proportion of non-causal variants in the set of tested variants is low. \cite{thornton2015statistical} \item We would expect better results from the VT test than the C-alpha test since VT is for rare variants having the same direction of effect which we simulated.  \end{itemize}
