Writing x values with subscript in the graph

Dear all,
I want to writing x values with subscript in the graph as follows:
Here is my code:
data=xlsread('boxplot');
col_header={'GA_{343}','GA351','GA352','GA342','GA153','GA353','GA141','GA273','GA143','GA373'};
data=data';
boxplot(data,col_header)
xlabel('Algorithm')
ylabel('Fitness Value')
How can I do this. Also, I use MATLAB 2020a version.
Thanks.

hAx=gca; % save the axes handle -- may want later
hAx.TickLabelInterpreter='tex'; % set tick label interpreter
Then your first column label will show the subscript; the answer for the rest is then apparent...
See the section on 'interpreter' optional named parameter at
doc text
for the details of TeX interpreter syntax.

Firstly, thank you for your answer but I did not understand exactly what to do.
Set the axis 'TickLabelInterpreter' property to 'tex'
Follow the above code as is written
I write the code as follows:
col_header={'GA_3_4_3','GA_3_5_1','GA_3_5_2','GA_3_4_2','GA_1_5_3','GA_3_5_3','GA_1_4_1','GA_2_7_3','GA_1_4_3','GA_3_7_3'};
and I followed the code steps you suggested and result :
Thank you so much my friend :)
Your original of
col_header={'GA_{343}','GA351',...
with the underscore for the first works and is easier to both write and read... :)
I tried this
col_header={'GA_{343}','GA_{351}','GA_{352}','GA_{342}','GA_{153}','GA_{353}','GA_{141}','GA_{273}','GA_{143}','GA_{373}'};
and it works. Thank you so much again my friend :)
Told ya'! :)
Glad to help; as noted earlier, the syntax rules for TeX are documented under text for future reference when want to get fancy again... :) Otherwise, it's kinda' hard to find in the doc if don't know/remember that.
