title: Reproductive toxicoses of food animals.
abstract: Reproductive dysfunction has many potential causes. In this article, the authors discuss toxicants that have been shown to affect reproduction, with emphasis on food-producing animals and fowl. The discussion is brief and written to provide a resource for clinicians, students, and scientists by focusing on toxicant-induced reproductive dysfunction and discussing the toxicant, source, clinical effects, and livestock species known or suspected to be affected.
