What metabolomics has taught us about tomato fruit ripening and quality.
Review in Journal of experimental botany, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) is a major crop and model species for investigating fruit metabolism, which plays a crucial role in determining flavor, nutritional quality, and ripening. Metabolomics has profoundly expanded our comprehension of tomato fruit ripening and quality by unraveling the intricate biochemical dynamics underlying these processes. Leveraging high-throughput metabolite profiling, researchers have identified critical metabolic pathways governing ripening, encompassing phytohormones, primary metabolism, and specialized metabolism. Integrated metabolomics, in combination with whole-genome sequencing, genome-wide association studies, and quantitative trait locus analysis, provides a comprehensive approach to identifying key genetic and metabolomic determinants of agronomic traits. Here we provide both established and emerging insights into the metabolic networks governing tomato ripening, emphasizing the potential of metabolomics-assisted breeding to enhance fruit taste and nutrition.
