Abstract The response of apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) cv. Cox’s Orange Pippin (‘Cox’) to low ethylene, controlled atmosphere (CA) storage was examined in two seasons. The content of 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) and the activity of ACC oxidase (measured as the capacity for formation of ethylene from exogenous ACC) in cortical tissue of apple fruits from low ethylene containers, remained constant for about the first 20 weeks of storage, before increasing. Removal of ethylene from the storage atmosphere was more effective at reducing softening in
