Thanks to Manuel and Ben for their responses. Getting the midpoints as 
indicated in the responses did the trick. Thanks for the help.

Assuming that you are asking about bargraph.CI from the sciplot package,
and that you are trying to get x-axis tick-labels that are perpendicular
to the x-axis, specifying las=2 in the call to bargraph.CI should work.

If you want more control, you can assign the output of bargraph.CI to an
object (a list that contains the x-values of the bars, summary stats,
and CIs). This will allow you to position labels at the x-values of the
plotted bars. For example:

test <- bargraph.CI(x.factor = dose, response = len, data = ToothGrowth, 
xaxt="n")
axis(side=1,at=test$xvals,labels=c("bar1","bar2","bar3"),las=2)
