Grape berry development is reviewed with special focus on berry growth, structure, substances imported, organic acid and sugar metabolism. Berry growth is divided into two growth periods. Berry structure and ultra structure are adapted to sink function. Exocarp cells are characterized by intensive metabolic capacities, flesh cells by a storage role. Early growth is highly sensitive to internal and external parameters. Berry size is largely defined during the first growth period. After "veraison", the berry becomes a major storage sink. Many changes occur in berry metabolism and gene expression. Genomic researches are promising to elucidate the mechanisms of berry development.

- Biochemical Changes throughout Grape Berry Development and Fruit and Wine Quality (2007, unknown): “Water influx into fruits occurs via both the xylem and phloem and most of the berry volume gain before véraison is due to water import from the xylem, whereas most of the post-véraison gain is due to water import from the phloem (Ollat et al. 2002; Keller et al. 2006).”
- Effects of Uncinula necator on the yield and quality of grapes (Vitis vinifera) and wine (2004, background): “During this phase a berry builds up its structure, develops seeds, and produces and stores large quantities of organic acids for cell division and expansion, normally leading to rapid growth (Davies & Robinson, 2000; Ollat et al., 2002).”
- Ethylene seems required for the berry development and ripening in grape, a non-climacteric fruit (2004, background): “At this time of berry 24 development, the decrease in juice acidity is explained mainly by the decrease of the malic 25 acid concentration (Ollat et al., 2002).”
- Drought-induced changes in development and function of grapevine (Vitis spp.) organs and in their hydraulic and non-hydraulic interactions at the whole-plant level: a physiological and molecular update (2010, background): “…and berry growth and ripening processes Following historical linkages between research on grapevine physiology and viticulture techniques, there is a wide and heterogeneous literature related to drought effects on grape berry development, as reviewed by Ollat et al. (2002) and Keller (2005).”
