_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Adds cytobands to views of chromosome copy number and genotype
     plots.

_U_s_a_g_e:

     plotCytoband(chromosome, cytoband, cytoband.ycoords, xlim, ylim=c(0, 2),
     new=TRUE, label.cytoband=TRUE, label.y=NULL, srt, cex.axis=1,
     outer=FALSE, taper=0.15, verbose=FALSE, build="hg18", ...)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

chromosome: character string: which chromosome to draw the cytoband

cytoband: data.frame containing cytoband information

cytoband.ycoords: numeric: y coordinates 

    xlim: x-axis limits

    ylim: y-axis limits

     new: logical: new plotting device

label.cytoband: logical: if TRUE, labels the cytobands

 label.y: numeric: height (y-coordinate) for cytoband label

     srt: string rotation for cytoband labels.  See 'par'

cex.axis: size of cytoband labels. See par

   outer: logical: whether to draw the labels in the outer margins. See
          par

   taper: tapering for the ends of the cytoband

 verbose: Logical.  If TRUE, displays human genome build used to
          annotated the cytoband coordinates.

   build: Character string.  Currently only "hg18" is allowed.

     ...: additional arguments to plot
