A mortality in sheep attributed to poisoning by Ixiolaena brevicompta is described. Clinical signs included reduced exercise tolerance, weakness and recumbency or sudden death. Elevated serum creatinine phosphokinase concentration and dystrophic muscle lesions were found consistently. Extensive losses occurred but only in sheep forced to eat herbage in which mature, seeded I. brevicompta predominated.
本文描述了一起绵羊因短柄艾中毒致死的事件。临床症状包括运动耐受力下降、虚弱、卧地不起或突然死亡。血清肌酸磷酸激酶浓度升高和营养不良性肌肉损伤始终存在。尽管造成了大量损失，但仅发生在被迫采食以成熟、结籽的短柄艾为主的牧草的绵羊身上。
