Mantel Test

Has anyone implemented the Mantel statistical test in Pipeline Pilot?  This is a test of the

similarity (correlation) between two distance matrices of the same rank.  Apparently the R

stats package, ade4, can perform this test, but it is not clear to me how to load the two

matrices, and obtain useful output i.e., the P value given a specified number of permutations.

Does anyone have either PP code or an R custom script example that they can share.

Thank you.
