The effects of non-magnetic atom vacancy on structural, martensitic phase transitions and the corresponding magnetocaloric effect in MnCoGe1-x alloys are investigated using x-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements. The introduction of non-magnetic atom vacancy leads to the decrease of the martensitic transition temperature and realizes a temperature window where magnetic and martensitic phase transitions can be tuned together. Moreover, the giant magnetocaloric effect accompanied with the coupled magnetic-structural transition is obtained. It is observed that the peak values of magnetic entropy change of MnCoGe0.97 are about -13.9, -35.1 and -47.4 J.kg(-1) K-1 for Delta H = 2, 5, 7 T, respectively.
