Pokeweed contains phytolaccatoxin and phytolaccigenin, which are poisonous to mammals. However, the berries are eaten by birds, which are not affected by the toxin because the small seeds with very hard outer shells remain intact in the digestive system and are eliminated whole.ll parts of pokeweed are toxic including the raw aboveground leaves sprouting in the early spring[3]. The poisonous principles are found in highest concentrations in the rootstock, less in the mature leaves and stems, and least in the fruits.
The common pokeweed, or pokeberry, P. decandra, native to the eastern U.S., may grow 3 m (10 ft) tall. Its young leaves are used as a substitute for greens and spinach; the young shoots, properly prepared, taste like asparagus; but the large, perennial root produces a cathartic poison, phytolaccin.okeweed, common name for the plant family Phytolaccaceae, of the order Caryophyllales (see PINK), and for its representative genus, Phytolacca. The family comprises about 18 genera and 65 species. Phytolacca contains about 25 species of herbs, shrubs, and trees that occur in tropical and subtropical regions.
