Southeastern plants toxic to ruminants.
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 2011Selected toxic plants affecting cattle, sheep, and goats in the southeastern United States are presented. The author's intention is to provide veterinary practitioners and students with an overview of plant poisoning in the region. Plants are grouped by body system affected, based on clinical signs and/or lesions.

Effects of selenium on the uptake of toxic trace elements by crop plants: A review
Critical reviews in environmental science and technology, 2020Selenium (Se) is an essential micronutrient for humans and animals and can have beneficial effects on plants. A low concentration of Se can improve plant growth; however, high concentrations can be toxic for plants.

Common Plants and Their Toxicity
Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1987This article contains information about plants that have a potential for producing acute toxicity. The two largest sections are in tabular format, that is, a list of plants reported to have a potential for producing acute toxicity and a table of plants that have been used as food suggesting that they have little toxic potential. For each plant cited in

Cadmium is an important pollutant in the environment, toxic to most organisms and a potential threat to human health: Crops and other plants take up Cd from the soil or water and may enrich it in their roots and shoots. In this review, we summarize natural and anthropogenic reasons for the occurrence of Cd toxicity, and evaluate the observed phytotoxic

Nanomaterial toxicity for plants
Environmental Chemistry Letters, 2017Nanomaterials occur widely in ecosystems as the result of both natural processes and human activities. Reports suggest that altered growth patterns in plants result from interactions of nanomaterials and plants. Plant physiological barriers provide some resistance against nanomaterial toxicity.

Toxicity of Nanomaterials to Plants [PDF]
, 2015 Nanoparticles have many potential applications, especially in biomedical engineering and agriculture, but the toxicity of nanoparticles to plants has received little attention. Previously, we described an increase in the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in rice (Oryza sativa) and Arabidopsis thaliana cells after nanoparticle treatments. We found

The Poisoned Weed: Plants Toxic to Skin
, 2004Over-two thirds of the U.S. population is allergic to poison oak, poison ivy, or a related plant. These and many other common plants in our homes, fields, and gardens are irritants that cause misery to many.
