As you correctly say Chuck. The markings etc are not fully displayed. Howerver whatever the problem, surely to stop it in it's early stages has to be a good practice. Regarding the open wounds. From the photos, which I congratulate the author. What are there, less than a dozen affected leaves. The wounds or cut surfaces will be minimal, and taking into account the growth structure of the plant/s. Vines seal up very fast.
The usual source of the problems you mention, downy mildew and mosaic etc. Much of the problem is down to weeds and associated plants, often including the 'over closeness' that is why I mentioned the removal of marked leaves, similar to opening-up the crown of a tre or bush, air and light circulation.
No offence intended. I enjoy your comments. You are very knowledgeable. Respected regards.
