Tobacco leaf is the basis of its industry development,and variety is the basis of tobacco production.At present,although the fluecured tobacco varieties bred and generalized at home had high yield and strong adaptability,there was a relatively small number of breakthrough varieties,especially in the quality,and it still existed a large gap comparing with America and Brazil,etc.Therefore,in order to meet the development needs of Chinese-style cigarette and sustainable development of Chinese tobacco production,we should not only focus on independent innovation,accelerate the breeding of new tobacco varieties with both Chinese and foreign varieties’ merits and fine comprehensive characters,but also carry out introduction.The research showed that tobacco was sensitive to environment,the adaptability of the same variety in different environmental conditions had some differences[1-14].Hence,only organically combining varietal characteristics with local ecological conditions,can give play to the potential productivity of fine varieties[15].In order to solve the problems of ageing and single tobacco variety in Heilongjiang,a comparative trail on introduced flue-cured tobacco varieties from America and Brazil was carried out in 2013 to screen out fine varieties suitable for planting in the ecological environment of Heilongjiang Province,and improve the layout of tobacco varieties in the whole province.

Materials and Methods

The general situation of experimental field

The experiment was carried out in the trial field of Mudanjiang Tobacco Science Research Institute in 2013(the geographical location is 129°06′E and 44°58′ N,the altitude is 230 m).The agrotype is warp soil,and the soil texture is medium loam,the preceding crop is wheat,the ground is flat and the land fertility is moderate,so it is easy for irrigation and drainage.Soil organic matter,available nitrogen(N),available phosphorus (P) and rapidly available potassium(K)contents of the experimental field were 25.3 g/kg,79.6 mg/kg,69.3 mg/kg and 278.6 mg/kg,respectively.

Experimental materials

The testing varieties were PVH2248,PVH2269,PVH2291,PVH2310,NC196,NC-YATAS2,NCYATAS6 and NC89(CK).

Experimental design

There were 10 treatments in the experiment,namely one variety for one treatment,NC89 was taken as check (CK).The experiment was designed by random grouping with 3 repetitions,each plot had four lines and 68 plants,and the line length was 10.2 m,the planting space was 0.6 m×1.1 m,the plot area was 44.88 m2.

Experimental methods

Each tobacco variety had same fertilization and quantity,pure N application was 45 kg/hm2,pure N:P2O5:K2O=1:2:3,thefertilizerswereapplied10 d before transplanting as single base fertilizer.The seeds were sowed on March 14,and tray seedling was carried out;on May 13,the seedlings were transplanted,then carrying out field management according to Comprehensive Standard System of Heilongjiang Fluecured Tobacco.

Measuring items and methods

The investigation and analysis on agronomic traits was carried out based on Chinese Tobacco Industry Criteria YC/T142-1998[16].The morbidity and disease index of each disease should be recorded.According to the plot,harvesting,baking,classifying and calculating the yield,so as to count leaf yield,output value,average price and ratio of first-class tobacco.30 plants of each variety (including CK) in each plot were chosen,and tobacco leaves of central section(the 8th-12thleaf positions down from parietal lobe) were got to appraise appearance quality according to Appraisal of Tobacco Sample Appearance Quality GB2635-92.Excel 2003 and DPS data processing[17]were adopted to carry out statistical analysis on experimental results,Duncan’s new multiple range method was used to carry out multiple comparisons on economic characters,other characters were also compared and analyzed.

Results and Analyses
