Figure S1. Panoramic view of the former open-air sedimentation basin at the Varennes field site,
southern Montreal, Quebec, having extreme levels of petroleum hydrocarbon-pollutants. A: Dry
part of the basin where phytoremediation studies with willows cultivars have been performed
(Bell et al., 2013). B: Bar chart corresponding to the values of some polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) measured in the polluted sediments, where A, F, Phe and Py correspond to
anthracene, fluorine, phenanthrene and pyrene, respectively. Concentration of these pollutants
exceeded by thousands times the toxicity of Canadian environmental quality guidelines for PAHs
in sediment. C: detailed view of the wet part of the basin where a partially submerged E. obtusa
plant is spontaneously growing. D: Schematic drawing of the experimental design and sampling.
The squares represent the hydrocarbon-polluted basin each year.

root. B, DES associated to E. obtusa.
