I have sequenced a large number of a fish species at 1 nuclear and 1 mitochondrial neutral locus (3 alleles- 2 nuclear and one at mtCR). I also have taken morphological measurements on these fish (total length, fin ray count, snout length, etc) and would like to see if there is a correlation between morphology and genetic data. I think a Mantel Test would work for this analysis, but I am not sure how to convert the allelic data to numerical values.. any advice?

Is this the problem like managing the pair AA, Aa, or aa ? using the degree of A content such as => aa : 0, Aa : 1, AA : 2 or the GC content against AT content in nucleotide level. sorry for my poor idea haha
