Dear Duncan Murdoch:

Thanks for your tips. By the way, I think I didn't mentioned my question
very clear. What I mean to say is that, in Excel one could decide upon the
axis interval unit. Please see the attached file. Likewise, is it possible
in R...?

Regards,
Prasanth.

You can set axes=FALSE, names="" and then use whatever axes you like. 
Modifying the first example in examples(barplot):

tN <- table(Ni <- stats::rpois(100, lambda=5)) r <- barplot(tN,
col=rainbow(20), axes=F, names="") axis(2, at=2^(0:5)) axis(1, at=r,
labels=letters[1:length(tN)])
