Abstract
The objective of this study was to examine effect of ethylene removal apparatus on fruit quality of 'Niitaka' pear (Pyrus pyrifolia) in case of a double storage of apples and pears in a storage room. Ethylene and carbon dioxide concentration were efficiently decreased by the ethylene removal apparatus. Fruit weight loss was high at double storage of apples and pears (DAP) in a storage room compared with storage of pears. Fruit core browning was $5{\sim}22.5%$ at the fruits in DAP, but as setting ethylene removal apparatus it was not occurred till 90 days after storage. Soluble solids content and fruit peel hardness were not different among the treatments. Accordingly, a double storage of apples and pears in a storage room is possible as setting ethylene removal apparatus.
