My logic is that Monsanto got the gene that gives the wheat its resistance to RoundUp (aka glyphosate) from Agrobacterium (see 1) which is perfectly capable of horizontal gene transfer into plants itself, without Monsanto helping (see 2). Also, there are plenty of weed species that are already glyphosate resistant (see 3). I suspect that a greater problem is that widespread and frequent use of glyphosate will increase the prevalence of resistance in weeds.

Also the EU will stop buying wheat that is known to have been GE contaminated.
Being that all of the techniques used in the industry are based off of nature anyways, if it is plausible for GMOs to do it, then normal plants have been doing it before GMOs even existed.
I'm pro GMO, the science is very sound and uses techniques directly from nature to modify plants, so it's not like we are making something that can't shouldn't exist. But I've always said, its our addiction to the pesticides and soil neglect that is far more harmful than any of these approved GMOs are going to pose.
I'm curious to know though. What specific complexity are you worried about disrupting.
