Genetic diversity was assessed among 24 flue-cured tobacco varieties by ISSR (inter simple sequence repeats). A total of 100 ISSR primers were used to amplify the DNA from these varieties, of which 10 primers produced reproducible amplified products. Using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis 208 bands were identified, of which 141 bands were polymorphic among the flue-cured tobacco varieties analyzed. Each primer produced 7-37 bands, the length of which ranged 200-2,400 bp. The ratio of polymorphic bands (PPB) was 67.79%. By cluster analysis based on ISSR markers using UPGMA, 24 varieties were divided into 5 major groups, in which the biggest group consisted of 12 varieties derived from Coker319. The genetic similarity index was 0.66-0.85 among 24 flue-cured tobacco varieties. Low genetic diversity among flue-cured tobacco varieties suggested that it is necessary to expand the genetic base of the flue-cured tobacco. 24 varieties could be distinguished by using 2 ISSR markers. The result also indicated that ISSR analysis was suitable for varietal identification and the study on genetic diversity of tobacco germplasm.

Background: Low temperatures disrupt nitrogen metabolism in tobacco, resulting in lower nicotine content in the leaves. 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) is a widely used plant growth regulator known for its roles in enhancing cold tolerance and nitrogen metabolism. Nevertheless, it remains unclear whether EBR enhances leaf nicotine content under low temperature conditions during the mature stage of flue-cured tobacco.

In this study, a strain isolated from the surface of flue-cured tobacco leaves, identified as HJ-16, was applied in the solid-state fermentation of tobacco leaves. This strain, known for producing thermally stable enzymes, including amylase, cellulase, and protease, significantly improved the sensory qualities of tobacco, enhancing aromatic intensity, density, and softness, while reducing irritation. Whole-genome sequencing and functional annotation revealed that HJ-16 possesses a single circular chromosome containing genes associated with enzyme production and metabolic activities, particularly in carbohydrate metabolism and amino acid metabolism.

and are two subtypes of (Fo), a pathogenic filamentous fungus. Phenamacril (PHA), a -specific fungicide that targets myosin I, exhibits significant hyphal growth inhibition in but shows weak resistance in , despite only two amino acid differences in the PHA-binding pocket of myosin I. In this study, we aim to elucidate the molecular basis for the differential sensitivity of myosin I variants (FoMyoI and FoMyoI) to phenamacril through computational methods and biochemical validation.

Tobacco () is a globally cultivated crop, with its quality closely associated with the color and chemical composition of cured tobacco leaves. In this experiment, the effects of spraying exogenous 2, 4-epibrassinolide (EBR) and melatonin (MT) on the development of tobacco leaves at maturity stage and the quality after curing were investigated. Both EBR and MT treatments significantly enhanced the appearance quality of tobacco leaves at the stem-drying stage.
