Abstract: Let G=(V,E) be a finite, simple graph. We consider for each oriented graph GcalO associated to an orientation calO of the edges of G, the toric ideal PGcalO. In this paper we study those graphs with the property that PGcalO is a binomial complete intersection, for all calO. These graphs are called extCIcalO graphs. We prove that these graphs can be constructed recursively as clique-sums of cycles and/or complete graphs. We introduce the chorded-theta subgraphs and their transversal triangles. Also we establish that the extCIcalO graphs are determined by the property that each chorded-theta has a transversal triangle. As a consequence, we obtain that the tournaments hold this property. Finally we explicitly give the minimal forbidden induced subgraphs that characterize these graphs, these families of graphs are: prisms, pyramids, thetas and a particular family of wheels that we call hetapartial wheels.
