I'm a postdoc currently working on mouse evolutionary genomics. I have a strong background in phylogenetics, genomics, molecular evolution, and phylogenomics. I use R, Python, and bash daily and act as a system administrator for servers dedicated to high-throughput sequencing analysis.

... Yes, though some models are only implemented in a Bayesian framework (e.g., UCLN vs. strict clock models in BEAST). Also, the default priors are a great starting point in modern approaches and generally perfectly acceptable for publication-worthy analyses. If you can construct informed priors, you s ...

... If you're calibrating your phylogeny (placing priors on node ages), most Bayesian approaches work better than scaling after the fact. It's not fair to say one is better than the other; they produce different things with different assumptions about how to estimate the phylogeny in the first place. ...

... You'll want to do model selection on your dataset. Check out MrModelTest or DT-ModSel.
ML phylogenetics produces a point-estimate of the topology (the MLE). Bayesian methods, in addition to being able to specify priors on your analysis, produces a posterior distribution of trees. ...

... > However, in all articles I've seen, people try to build trees from complete orthogroups
Whether you use 'complete' orthogroups or not depends on the question you are trying to ask. It appears to just be a scale issue in your case. Your tree will still be representative of the relationships for ...

Answer:
A: Excel file Import to R
... I'm assuming you know what gene corresponds to each row. If they're in order, do something like:
a <- read.table("your_table_with_values.txt", stringsAsFactors=FALSE)
b <- [this is going to depend on what format your gene names are in.
perhaps you could read as a table and take a ...

... I think there is a lot of misunderstanding here. For starters:
1. Not all quantifying tools are based on mapping. Consider a distribution of per-base quality scores.
2. What is a non-experimental experiment?
3. Annotations can be derived experimentally or informatically. The latter is known to not ...
