Of course they are altered like anything else. They get bred/altered for flavor, size or production. With the benefit of the cross, another side is lost.
Also most plants you buy are OVER fertilized and watered at the store. You plant them in your garden they(the plants) expect you to feed them everyday or almost constantly, so they don't grow. Transplants do not grow as well as direct seed for vine crops (squash, pumpkins, melons......) anyway: for basically the same reason. The seed has to find its source right from the start, the plant wants it given to them so it takes longer for them to get going. Tomatoes and peppers go better from plants because they take so long to get started in the first place, once going they go.

That goes for any food, vegies, meat, or animal produced goods(eggs, milk..). The more chemicals the worse the taste and looks(for example eggs: store eggs are really pale compared to small farm/home raised).
