an IdiogramParam object

seqnames: length-one character vector providing chromosome name
seqlengths: length-one numeric vector indicating size of chromosome
unit: character string indicating unit for genomic position (default is 'kb')
genome: character string indicating genome build
box: a list of parameters for plotting the box around the part of the idiogram that is plotted.
