Abstract: Highlights: [•] 1H HRMAS NMR is applied to metabolic characterisation of marmande type tomatoes. [•] The effect of genetic and phenotypic factors on metabolic composition is shown. [•] Changes induced by environmental factors are variety-dependent. [•] Neither grafting nor perlite affects the chemical composition of fruits. [•] NGS® is an effective agricultural approach to improve tomato quality. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
