Induced mannosidosis-excretion of oligosaccharides by locoweed-intoxicated sheep [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1983 Daily urine samples were collected from a locoweed‐fed sheep, and the oligosaccharide content examined by thin‐layer and liquid chromatography. An unusual pattern of urine oligosaccharides was observed, which appears to be characteristic of loco intoxication.

Assessing the Biogeographic Risks of Potentially Toxic Plants—A Case Study for a Novel Locoweed Sphaerophysa salsula in China [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionClimate change‐induced grassland degradation has exacerbated the spread of toxic plants, yet many potentially toxic species remain overlooked, undermining rangeland management and causing significant economic losses.

Endophytic Alternaria oxytropis modulates host metabolism and enhances stress resilience in locoweed independent of swainsonine biosynthesis [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyLocoweed toxicity is attributed to swainsonine-producing endophytic fungus Alternaria oxytropis, yet the broader ecological significance of fungal metabolites beyond swainsonine remains poorly understood.

Population Decline of White Locoweed [PDF]
Rangelands, 2012 Many Astragalus and Oxytropis species are en- demic (growing on speci c soils and geo- graphical areas), but white locoweed (Oxytro- pis sericea) is the most widespread locoweed in the western United States, growing on short-grass prairies and eastern foothills of the Rocky Mountains from Montana to New Mexico.

A screening strategy for identifying the developmental and reproductive toxicity potential of botanicals [PDF]
Pharmaceutical BiologyContext Botanicals are widely consumed as dietary supplements and traditional medicines, yet their developmental and reproductive toxicity (DART) potential is often inadequately characterized.

Subtle Teratogenic Effects of Locoweed in Rats
, 1977 Locoweed, a well-known teratogenic plant affecting livestock, is prevalent in mountain regions of the Western United States. Two common species (Astragalus lentiginosus and A. wootoni), administered to pregnant rats, induced behavioral deviations in their offspring.

Locoweed Poisoning in Livestock [PDF]
Rangelands, 2009 354 known species oi Astragalus and 22 species of Oxytropis. Most of these species are nontoxic and are important forages; however, several species are toxic to both livestock and wildlife. Historically toxic species are divided into three groups based on the toxic syndromes observed in livestock: 1) selenium poisoning, 2) nitrotoxin poisoning, and 3 ...

Pathology of Locoweed Poisoning in Sheep [PDF]
Pathologia veterinaria, 1969 Three locoweeds, Oxytropis sericea, Astragalus pubentissimus, and A. lentigimosus were fed experimentally to yearling wethers for 60 days. Clinical signs were central nervous impairment resulting in diminished control or loss of motor function and proprioception.

Does feeding area restriction inhibit social learning of toxic weed ingestion in cattle?
Animal, 2010 Social learning from peers can trigger herd-wide intoxication with white locoweed (Oxytropis sericea), an alkaloid-synthesizing herbaceous legume that grows on rangelands of western North America.
