How to se x axis with specific range

Hello everyone i need some help setting my x axis. As you can see in the image below my maximum value is near 10^-9 and the minimum is 0. The proble is thar near the 0 value i have data with values of 10^-16 and 10^-13 and i want that data to be shown.

I would like to see my axis going from 0 to the next minimun value and then ever 10^-1 value.

An example of what i want is this. x-axis= 0 ,10^-16, 10^-15, 10^-14, 10^-13, 10^-12, 10^-1,1 10^-10, 10^-9,

figure(1)
plot(M12D(:,2),M12D(:,1))
ylim([0 4.5])

This is my code, I tried doing xticks but i cant achieve it. M12D is an 326x2 array.

Thanks in advance.

The above link suggests making the axis log scale, which would generally be a good idea in these kinds of cases.

However, log scale can have some unexpected consequences for values that are 0 or negative. In the case of 0, the edges connecting to 0 will not be drawn, and areas (such as fill() or patch() or surf()) that involve a 0 will not be drawn. Negative values can get a bit odd...
