Found the solution in [Plots.jl xticks color modification - Specific Domains / Visualization - JuliaLang](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/plots-jl-xticks-color-modification/74800/2).

There is a function `xticks`. The final line in the example below returns the xticks of the figure:

```julia
using Plots
xs = 1:10
ys = xs .^ 2
plt = plot(xs, ys)
xticks(plt)

```
