90ª will be OK. But I am afraid I will have to move to axis() anyway. 
Look at this...

It seems there is not enough room for labels. Even those that are short 
enough aren't always displayed. If I use letters, they do just fine. 
Could I control this space? I am afraid that I don't understand this ... 
at the bottom of the arguments list in ?barplot or any other R function :-(

Thank you so much for your help,

Ricardo
