TL;DR
There are some simple modifications and extensions of the Mantel test that would encourage even wider deployment in population work and to illustrate them with an example drawn from the Yanomama Indians of lowland South America.

The technic to be given below for imparting statistical validity to the procedures already in vogue can be viewed as a generalized form of regression with possible useful application to problems arising in quite different contexts.

A general coefficient ofmonotonicityμ is defined, whose maximization is equivalent to optimal satisfaction of the monotonicity condition, and which allows various options both for treatment of ties and for weighting error-of-fit.

A broad class of permutation tests for association between distance matrices is described, and examples of specific test statistics are given, illustrating test properties with real and simulated data.

It is found that differences in color polymorphisms covary significantly with differences in predator densities and in altitudes, suggesting that malecolor polymorphisms track clinally distributed communities of visually hunting predators.

A general method of matrix comparison, called the Mantel test, is described which accounts for interdependencies in association values derived for all pairs of individuals and has wide applicability in studies of animal behaviour.

A very flexible matrix combinatorial procedure is examined which generates statistical significance levels for correlational measures of pattern similarity between distance matrices and shows potential for finally solving a long-standing problem in anthropological genetics.

Findings confirm the results of earlier analyses concerning the important roles of both stochastic and social factors in determining village allele frequencies and the occurrence within this tribe of some allele frequency clines most likely due to the operation of chance historical processes.

The spatial structure of 12 allele frequencies was examined for 57 populations of the cactophilic fly Drosophila buzzatii from eastern Australia and suggest that selection operates on different spatial scales ranging from a continental one to a strictly local one.

A combinatorial data analysis strategy is reviewed that is designed to compare two arbitrary measures of proximity defined between the objects from some set and extensions are pursued to indices of partial association that relate the observed pattern of correspondence between the first two proximity measures to a third.

The methods of spatial auto correlation analysis for both continuous and nominal variable are explained and the Mantel test and its extensions are applied to the spatial distributions of ecological variables in two under story plants in the genus Aralia.

The geographic variation of 33 morphological characters of the gall-forming aphid Pemphigus populicaulis is studied for 118 localities east of 100oW longitude and the patterns of variation can be shown to be significantly nonrandom by Mantel's test and by spatial autocorrelation analysis.
American Journal of Physical AnthropologyDifferences among Yanomama Indian villages: Do the patterns of allele frequencies, anthropometrics and map locations correspond?
44 Citations1973Richard S. Spielman
Two new methods, derived from fundamentally different notions of “correspondence,” are adopted here and compared and significant correspondence among the cluster structures for geographic, allele frequency, and anthropometric data on 19 Yanomama Indian villages is found.

36 Citations1976R. H. Ward, James V. Neel
It is suggested that an important factor in the origin of these clines is the manner in which the Yanomama Indians has recently expanded through successive village fissionings and a predominantly centrifugal pattern of village migration.

The geographic patterns found for cranial morphology and environmental measures are strongly clinal and in general congruent, suggesting that oceanographic conditions in part determine trends in morphological characteristics of spotted dolphins.

Genetic distance analysis reveals that the one Baniwa sample by history comprised of minimally admixed individuals is quite similar genetically to the Wapishana, another Arawak-speaking tribe some 900 km to the east, and that the genetic distances between the Bani Wa communities reflect the amount of historical admixture in a way that indicates which should be excluded from considerations of intertribal genetic distances.
