I guess the simplest way is to first create a table with the information
you want, probably something like:
R> mytable <- xtabs(~ GEN + AGEGP, data = mydata, subset = OB == 1)
R> barplot(mytable)
If you code the variables as factors with proper labels then the labels
of the barplot will also be done automatically.
