Not reproducible for us ...

You set the range of the whole axis by ylim, if you want to control the
tick marks, use:
ylim=c(0,15), yaxp=c(0, 15, 3)
and
ylim=c(0,5), yaxp=c(0, 5, 2)
respectively. See ?par for details.
Otherwise, omit the y axis via yaxt="n" and add it separately by a call
to axis().
