Abstract
The resveratrol contents in grapes showed a great variation according to the cultivars. In spite of it, a high resveratrol content in fruit was found generally in cultivars of Shigyoku, Pione, Muscat of Alexandria (black colored cultivars) and Muscatel Ruso, Gold Finger, Niunai (green colored cultivars). But in case included fruit stem and rachis, some cultivars, i.e. Shigyoku, Muscat of Alexandria and Baby Finger, showed relatively higher resveratrol content, and these cultivars could be advantageous for cultivation without chemical fungicide, because resveratrol was known as a phytoalexin. While resveratrol was not detected in fruit flesh, fruit stem and rachis contained considerably high content of resveratrol; that shows resveratrol may be synthesized in these parts.
