- Title
Regulatory status of transgrafted plants is unclear.

- Abstract
The article focuses on the unclear status of the vascular system in transgrafted plants. The plants vascular system can selectively transport various materials across graft junctions including RNAs, proteins, hormones but certain materials require membrane transduction signals for their transportation. The regulatory approval body for these transgenic crops in the U.S. and the European Union has been discussed.
