Five year old “Shine Muscat” grape was used as material to spray amino acid calcium and water-soluble calcium solution on grape leaves and ears during fruit expansion and color changing stages. The effects of exogenous calcium fertilizer on the formation of fruit rust and fruit quality of “Shine Muscat” grape were studied in a randomized block design with 1000 times of amino acid calcium solution and 1500 times of water-soluble calcium solution, and the spraying water was used as the control. The results show that: compared with calcium fertilizer in fruit expanding stage, it is more beneficial to the accumulation of sugar components in pericarp to spaying calcium fertilizer in turn-color stage. The content of sugar in pulp can be increased by spraying calcium fertilizer compared with water in fruit expanding stage. Spraying calcium fertilizer in turn-color stage can promote the degradation of malic acid and citric acid in the pericarp of mature grape and inhibit the degradation of tartaric acid. Spraying calcium fertilizer in fruit expanding stage can promote the degradation of citric acid in mature grape pulp, while calcium amino acid can inhibit the degradation of oxalic acid and tartaric acid and promote the degradation of malic acid. Spraying calcium fertilizer in turn-color stage can promote the degradation of organic acids in mature grape pulp. Combined with the content of soluble sugar and titratable acid, spraying 1500 times of soluble calcium in fruit expansion period is beneficial to improve the fruit quality of “Shine Muscat” grape.
