Graphically represent Mantel Test
Of course you can plot the distance vs the environmental matrix. That's a reasonable thing to do, just as you would do it for any potentially-correlated data. Sarah On Fri, Mar 18, 2016 at 9:19 AM, Javier Mart?nez-L?pez

I guess what I try to show is something like plotting an axis of an NMDS based on each multivariate distance matrix against each other. I have an environmental versus a species distance matrix, with a high correlation based on the Mantel test and I wanted to show it somehow graphically. I will take a look at path diagrams. Thanks!

I'm not sure what you're asking: a Mantel test result is a single number. Path diagrams are one potential tool for displaying the results of many such tests. You might also be interested in Mantel correlograms, for spatial pattern. This isn't an R question, as presented, but I'm curious what you mean.

Hello all, is there a way of graphically represent a Mantel correlation test between two distance/dissimilarity matrices? Thank you and best regards, Javier
