“…Appearance is one of the major factors the consumer uses to evaluate the quality of table grape, especially visual attributes such as berry size, shape and color (Ferrara et al, 2017) together with taste, aroma and texture. Consumers like large, seedless berries along with pleasant flavour and aroma (Costenaro da Silva et al, 2010).…”

“…Table grape production is a rising sector of agriculture with increasing surface, which requires breeding of new cultivars (FAO-OIV, 2016). The most important targets of breeding programs are seedlessness, early ripening, abiotic stress resistance, and phenotypic appearance (Ferrara et al, 2017). Various berry shape types exist, and extreme ones have important marketing value.…”

Grapevine berry shape has important marketing value in the table grape commerce, hence variability evaluation of this characteristic is highly important. In this study berry shape of 5 table grape genotypes: “Fanny”, “Lidi”, “Hamburgi muskotály”, “Moldova”, and “Orsi” were compared. To evaluate the shape variability graphic reconstruction and elliptic Fourier analysis have been carried out. Shape outlines have been investigated and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) has been performed with the SHAPE software package. PCA of the contours showed that 6 out of the 77 principal components were effective to describe shape attributes. The first 6 PCs explained 94.51% of the total variance. PC1 associated with the width and length of the berry. PC2 related to the shape of the top and bottom of the berries, while PC3 linked to the ratio of the top and the bottom width. ANOVA of the principal component scores revealed significant difference among the genotypes. Results suggest that morphology of the berry is a variable not only among but within the accessions. Our findings confirmed that elliptic Fourier descriptors (EFDs) would be a powerful tool for quantifying grapevine berry morphological diversity.

“…Changes in technical and technological solutions, consumer needs, and regulatory framework lead to a continuous evolution of the handling procedures to limit decay induced by spoilage fungi. All of these advances are generally tailored to reducing and averting spoilage growth, but they are more broadly oriented towards optimization of global quality of production, including safety, health properties, and sensory acceptability [ 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 ].…”

Consumers highly appreciate table grapes for their pleasant sensory attributes and as good sources of nutritional and functional compounds. This explains the rising market and global interest in this product. Along with other fruits and vegetables, table grapes are considerably perishable post-harvest due to the growth of undesired microorganisms. Among the microbial spoilers, Botrytis cinerea represents a model organism because of its degrading potential and the huge economic losses caused by its infection. The present review provides an overview of the recent primary physical, chemical, and biological control treatments adopted against the development of B. cinerea in table grapes to extend shelf life. These treatments preserve product quality and safety. This article also focuses on the compliance of different approaches with organic and sustainable production processes. Tailored approaches include those that rely on controlled atmosphere and the application of edible coating and packaging, as well as microbial-based activities. These strategies, applied alone or in combination, are among the most promising solutions in order to prolong table grape quality during cold storage. In general, the innovative design of applications dealing with hurdle technologies holds great promise for future improvements.
