. Purulent necrotic processes in the gizzard of a chicken. The health is influenced by consequences of mechanical obstruction because of seeds' accumulation in the gizzard. A direct toxic effect of Galium aparine is also supposed (primarily hepato- and nephrotoxic), due to release of toxic glycosides and other toxic substances from the seeds. 522..
