Alternate watermilfoil, Myriophyllum alterniflorum is an aquatic macrophyte found in the Limousin rivers (France) whose potential for biomonitoring of metal pollution has been demonstrated. The objective of the present study carried out in vitro was to identify biomarkers for an early detection of the pollution by a metalloid As (V) in eutrophic and oligotrophic conditions. A synthetic medium of similar composition to the waters of the River Vienne was prepared. The morphological development of watermilfoil was monitored for 30 days, with or without contamination by 100 μg L−1 As (V). In addition, the mineralization of plants and the analysis of biomarkers (chlorophylls, photosynthetic and respiratory intensities …) were investigated after 21 days. Our results indicated that eutrophic medium, induced a decrease in chlorophyll pigments, in growth and an increase in H2O2 compared to the oligotrophic medium. While, the presence of As (V), led to a decrease in the osmotic potential, pigment content, photosynthesis and respiration rates and an inhibition of shoot branching of plants in both conditions. However, a significant increase in H2O2 content was noted in the eutrophic medium. Finally, As (V) was found to be more accumulated in roots than shoots in both conditions but was more accumulated in oligotrophic one. Therefore, we can conclude that the water trophic level modifies the response of M. alterniflorum in presence of arsenate. Thus, M. alterniflorum shows a great promise in water-quality biomonitoring.
