In this study, berry dimensions and shape traits, which are important for the design of the grape processing system and the classification of 10 different grape varieties grown in same ecological conditions ('Ata Sarısı', 'Barış', 'Dımışkı', 'Hatun Parmağı', 'Helvani', 'Horoz Karası', 'Hönüsü', 'İtalia', 'Mevlana Sarısı', and 'Red Globe') were determined; differences between the varieties were identified with the use of discriminant analysis. The largest grape varieties were identified as 'Ata Sarısı' and 'Red Globe'. The 'Red Globe' and 'Helvani' varieties had geometrically sphere-like shape.

Morphology is the most visible and distinct character of plant organs and is accepted as one of the most important tools for plant biologists, plant breeders and growers. A number of methods based on plant morphology are applied to discriminate in particular close cultivars. In this study, image processing analysis was used on 20 grape cultivars ("Amasya beyazı", "Antep karası", "Bahçeli karası", "Çavuş", "Cevşen", "Crimson", "Dimrit", "Erenköy beyazı", "Hafızali", "Karaşabi", "Kırmızı", "İzabella (Isabella) ", "Morşabi", "Müşgüle", "Nuniya", "Royal", "Sultani çekirdeksiz (Sultanina)", "Yalova incisi", "Yerli beyazv", "Yuvarlak çekirdeksiz") to classify them.
