Apple cork spot, bitter pit and Jonathan spot are physiological disorders that can affect apple quality and reduce visual appeal. Fruit growers sometimes confuse these disorders with damage resulting from insects or pathological diseases, particularly those involving fungus infections or hail injury. ... Although apples affected with these disorders are edible, the unattractive external appearance often arouses consumer concern and reduces salability of fruit.

OBS

Occurrence of cork spot and bitter pit appears to be related to reduced calcium availability in the developing fruit.
