Plants have adapted themselves to the environment. This adaptation has led to the development of defensive strategies to avoid being consumed. Plants have several chemical compounds, which can cause deleterious effects on people or animals that consume them, causing a wide variety of clinical signs. Plants from various latitudes, both cultivated for human and animal feeding or decorative purpose and even wild growth plants are able to generate anaemia in ruminants. Coumarins or ptaquiloside predispose bleeding and haemorrhages, causing a haemorrhagic disease in affected animals. In this group, some important fodder plants, such sweet clover (Genus Melilotus spp.), or other weeds distributed worldwide, such as bracken fern (Pteridium aquilinum) of giant fennel (Ferula communis), are included. On the other hand, sulfur-containing chemicals (e.g., n-propyl disulfate and S-propyl cysteine sulfoxides (SMCOs)) may cause severe direct damage to the erythrocyte and their membrane, leading to their destruction and causing haemolytic anaemia in the animal. This review presents the most frequent intoxication by plants causing anaemia in ruminants. Toxic compounds, clinical signs, diagnosis and possible treatments are also presented. info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 3.0 2022 VETERINARY SCIENCES 13 / 144 = 0.09 2022 Q1 T1 AGRICULTURE, DAIRY & ANIMAL SCIENCE 12 / 62 = 0.194 2022 Q1 T1 0.684 2022 Veterinary (miscellaneous) 2022 Q1 Animal Science and Zoology 2022 Q1 4.2 2022 info:eu-repo/semantics/review info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Lacasta, Delia Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-7822-6646 Ramos, Juan José Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-2724-2785 Quintas, Hélder Ruiz de Arcaute, Marta Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-7655-2472 Ramo, María Ángeles Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-6282-5038 Villanueva-Saz, Sergio Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-6209-4282 Ferrer, Luis Miguel Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0003-0042-8800 1009 617 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
