Abstract: In this paper, the Relationship between attachment of stem to the berries, turgor pressure and fruit structure in four table grapes were studied of Kyoho, Red Globe,Autumn black and Autum Red grape.The result showed that attachment of stem to the berries was positvely correlated to the diameter of fruit stalk, diameter of the fruit stalk end and total fruit stalk binding area but negatively to the total berry weight per unit area of stalk and stalk binding area. Turgor pressure not only decided by flesh character but also by the berry size,but not related to the pericarp thickness. The fruit stalk xyloidization extent effect the storability of grape more than the stalk to stem ratio.,but the attachment of stem to the berries was not related to the turgor pressure.
