MuSeeQ procedure. a Three steps are required: Step 1. The biochemical assay for staining of the agarose gel and for the deposition of seeds. Step 2. Images acquisition. Step 3. A computer-assisted image analysis tool. b Experimental setup allowing to take micrographs. The fixed camera mount is placed on top of the agarose gels. c Representative image of flaxseeds from the cultivar Oliver and their corresponding soluble mucilages stained with toluidine blue O after 24 h. d Zoom on one seed (Se) demonstrating the abilities of the biochemical assay for the release of a soluble mucilage concentric stained halo (Muc). Bars: C = 18 mm; D = 2 mm
