‘Sibera’ variety. (A) Dried berry covered with a red growth. (B) Drying berry with sticky pink juice concentrated in morphological concavities. (C) Clusters of mycelial hyphae on the surface of the drying bunch at a skin rupture. (D) Abundant sporulation of B. cinerea on the surface a drying berry. Photomicrographs were taken with a binocular magnifier.

EDS energy spectra of the skin surface of drying berries of the ‘Sibera’ variety at spots +1 (A) and +2 (B) shown in Figures 2A and 3C. EDS energy spectra obtained from the surface of the ‘Sibera’ variety grapes. Dried and cracked berries – red spectrum. Undamaged berries, less dry – blue spectrum.

‘Regent’ variety. (A) The surface of a drying berry covered with bright crystals of a potassium compound. (B) Abundant growth of B. cinerea air mycelium at a rupture of the peel of a ‘Regent’ berry. (C) Stalk with advancing mineralisation by red organic iron compounds. (D) Mineralisation by sugars at the location of a detached peduncle; visible glossy sugar microcrystals. Photomicrographs taken with a binocular magnifier.
