In hadron-induced extensive air showers (EAS) low-energy collisions of secondary hadrons with nuclei of the atmosphere form the final branches of the hadronic shower skeleton. In the EAS Monte Carlo simulation program CORSIKA these interactions were treated up to now by the GHEISHA code. Recently correction patches became available for GHEISHA, overcoming a number of obvious deficiencies in the simulated kinematics of low-energy interactions. Additionally the hadronic part of the FLUKA code has been coupled for the description of low-energy hadronic interactions as an alternative to GHEISHA. The predictions of the implemented low-energy models are compared to data and their influence on the simulated EAS development is investigated.
