Thanks for the pointers... I managed to get everything to look and feel the way I want except for the legend to plot outside the grid... Thanks for the note on the par, but I'm not able to it to plot outside the plot grid..

dataFrame <- as.data.frame(t(structure(c(

par(xpd=TRUE)
legend(1, max(as.vector(dataFrame$marbles_buried)), c(wtLegend, hetLegend, homLegend), col=c('blue', 'red', 'green'), pch=c(1,4,2));

-Thanks

Of course!

stripchart() is a base graphics function and tehrefore has available to it
the base graphics functionality, like (the base graphics function, **not**
the lattice argument) legend(). See ?legend in the graphics package. Note
the use of locator() for positioning the legend.

Note: By default the legend will be clipped to the plot region. If you wish
to have a legend outside the plot region set the xpd parameter of par to
TRUE or NA prior to plotting.
