I didn't find the Genetics package you mentioned. The PopGenome package looks interesting. It provides a little introduction that will help you get started. It seems that it uses a syntax that is a little special so it might take some time to get used to. You may also want to look into http://cran.r-project.org/package=pegas I don't know if it does everything PopGenome does, but might be easier to use. It's written by the same author as ape.
Bring some fasta files, so you can start using the package this week.
