It's hard to help if you keep changing the framework of your problem, first two matrices - now it's a data.frame and a list of subset row names in a plotting method from whatever package "suprow" comes from. Regardless, Michael's original answer already gave you a solution:
plot(table1,type='l',lwd=2) points(table1[list1$node,],col=2,pch=19) The points are overlayed on the line plot, so they are not "obscured" if you have 20 or 20M values.
