Insertion of exogenous genetic material into the germ line might have devastating effects on normal development which could be heritable."
"Accordingly, it is important that vectors be tested for their potential to insert genes into developing gametes," recommended J.W. Gordon and coauthors, City University of New York (CUNY), Mt Sinai Medical...
