r – ggplot2 manually specifying colour with geom_line
As stated by @juba in the comments, you should use scale_colour_manual instead of scale_fill_manual. Moreover, you are trying to plot to many lines and errorbars in one plot. They overlap each other to much and it is therefore hard to distuinguish between the lines/errorbars.
An example with the use of facetting (and some simplification of your code):
ggplot(summary.200.exp2, aes(x=Time, y=Length, group=Genotype)) +
geom_line(aes(colour=Bgrnd_All), size =1) +
geom_errorbar(aes(ymin=Length-se, ymax=Length+se, colour=Bgrnd_All), width=2) +
scale_x_continuous(Time, breaks=c(0,17,22,41,89)) +
scale_colour_manual(values=c(Avalon=#000066,Av_A=#663399,Av_B=#339999,Cadenza=#CC0033,Cad_A=#FF6600,Cad_B=#FF9933))+
ylab(leaf segment width (mm)) +
theme_bw() +
theme(axis.title = element_text(size=14,face=bold), axis.text = element_text(size=10)) +
facet_wrap(~Bgrnd_All, ncol=3)
this gives:
