This will give five 18-element lists of counts.
Although "l" is {5164, 18}, you use only the first 200 elements
in each column, so those are the only ones I put into "L".
It's much easier to work with rows than columns.

L = Ordering[#,200]& /@ Transpose @ matrix1; (*{5164,18}->{18,200}*)

orderedcellcycle = annotations[[#,6]]& /@ L;   (* {18,200} *)

gcount  = Count[#,"G1"  ]& /@ orderedcellcycle;   (* {18} *)
scount  = Count[#,"S"   ]& /@ orderedcellcycle;   (* {18} *)
sgcount = Count[#,"S/G2"]& /@ orderedcellcycle;   (* {18} *)
gmcount = Count[#,"G2/M"]& /@ orderedcellcycle;   (* {18} *)
mgcount = Count[#,"M/G1"]& /@ orderedcellcycle;   (* {18} *)

If you have many patterns for which you need counts, you might want
to do something like this, which gives a {5, 18} matrix of counts:

patternlist = {"G1", "S", "S/G2", "G2/M", "M/G1"};

countmatrix = Outer[Count[#2,#1]&, patternlist, orderedcellcycle, 1];
