La méthode PICT (Pollution-Induced Community Tolerance) appliquée aux communautés algales : intérêt comme outil de diagnose et d'évaluation du risque écotoxicologique en milieu aquatique

Abstract: Pour caractériser l'état d'un écosystème aquatique contaminé par des toxiques il est nécessaire de développer des méthodes d'évaluation des impacts écotoxicologiques, basées à la fois sur l'étude de réponses physiologiques et sur la structure des communautés vivant dans cet écosystème. La méthode PICT (Pollution-Induced Community Tolerance) proposée par Blanck et al. (1988), répond à ces deux critères. Elle est fondée sur l'hypothèse qu'une communauté biologique naturelle est constituée de différents «composa… Show more

“…The PICT concept makes the assumption that communities exposed to contaminants become tolerant to these contaminants by adaptation or species changes (Blanck et al, 1988;Bérard et al, 2002). During laboratory toxicity assays, exposed communities will be characterised by higher EC 50 values than reference communities with respect to the toxicant tested.…”

“…Exposure to a toxicant induces community changes by selecting tolerant components, which can be either species, genotypes or phenotypes (Bérard et al 2002;Blanck 2002). As a result, the exposed community becomes less sensitive to the toxicant.…”

“…To verify that structural changes were related to pesticide contamination of the river Morcille, we applied the PICT concept proposed by Blanck et al (1988) and used since by several authors (see Bérard et al 2002, for a review). The PICT concept states that the tolerance of a community to a toxicant is related to the previous exposure of that community to the toxicant or to another toxicant so long as both belong to the same toxicant family (same chemical composition and/or similar mode of action).…”
