In order to obtain the basic information for the successful breeding of aromatic tobacco (N. tabacum L.), the combining ability and the mode of inheritance in 28 $F_2$ hybrids by diallel crosses between Korea local and oriental varieties were investigated. Estimates of general combining ability were significant for all characters investigated, and the specific combining ability was significant for stalk height, leaves per plant, leaf length, leaf width and days to flower. The partial dominance was exhibited by all characters investigated as well as additive effects were larger than dominance effects for all characters.

The experiment was conducted to obtain basic information on breeding of flue-cured tobacco varieties. Nine cultivars and partial diallel set of 36 F1 hybrides were grown at Taegu Experiment Station, Korea Ginseng & Tobacco Research Institute in 1983. Estimated heritability in the narrow-sense ranged from 66.21% to 94.12% for yield, leaves per plant, days to flower, leaf weight, leaf width, leaf shape, nicotine content and reducing sugar content, while that for stalk height, leaf length, midrib weight and midrib width ranged from 28.12% to 56.25%. The genotypic correlations were positive among yield, leaf weight, leaf length, leaf width, midrib weight and midrib width in the middle leaves, days to flower, nicotine content and reducing correlated with leaf length than leaf width. At the path coefficient analysis of the effect of leaf and midrib characters upon yield according to stalk position, leaf weight, leaf width and midrib width in the middle leaves, and leaf weight, and leaf width in the top leaves showed high direct effects.

Field experiment was conducted to find out the chemical characteristics of 12 Korean local varities, Local varities were compared with oriental, flue-cured and burley tobacco. Among tested varities, Hyangcho and Matskawa were desirable in respect of flavor, leaf color and texture. Hyangcho and Matskawa were higher in the content of nicotine and petroleum ether extract. Gajacho, Byeolcho and Kukjuo were higher in the content of reducing sugar, but lower nicotine, total nitrogen and petroleum ether extract. The nicotine and total nitrogen content of Kwangcho, Daruma and Catterton were lower than that of Br. 21. In the content of volatile organic acid which were major characteristic component of oriental tobacco, the Korean local varities were lower in the content of 3-methyl butanoic and 3-methyl pentanoic acid, but hirities, Hyangcho, Matskawa and Daruma were higher in the content of volatile organic acid. Korean local varities, especially small leaf group, were higher in the content of benzyl alcohol and furfural than any other type tobacco.

For shortening the tobacco breeding cycle, seedlings with 6, 8 and II leaves of 2 flue.cured tobacco varieties, day. neutral type and photoperiod-sensitive type, were grown in controlled-environment room (CER), programmed for temperature of $18^{\circ}C$ and 8.hour day period of 30 klux, for 20, 30 and 40 days. All of plants of day.neutral type variety treated in CER, regardless of seedling stage and duration, flowered earlier than the untreated plants. In the 6.leaf seedlings stage of photoperiod-sensitive type variety, plants treated for 20 and 30 days in CER did not accelerate the flowering. the tobacco plants, treated with low temperature for 20 days at 8.leaf seedling stage, flowered earlier in comparison with. the other treatment.

Data for this study were obtained from Burley 21 (Nicotiana tabacum L.) grown under various densities on the field in 1978 and 1979 at the Jeonju Experiment Station, Korea Ginseng & Tobacco Research Institute. Interrelations between yield and its components were statistically studied by correlation, regression, and pathway analysis. Correlation of yield with plant population was significant and positive. Quadratic functions for yield vs. plant population and the length of the largest leaf were fitted to the data. Multiple recession equation between yield and its components (leaf number ($X_1$), a leaf area ($X_5$), weight per unit leaf area ($X_9$), plant population ($X_14$)), was significant at the 5% level. Measuring the relative importance of its components on yield, plant population was 49.5%, weight per unit leaf area 25.3%, a leaf 15.6%, and leaf number 9.8%.

Production of haploids in vitro anther culture of Nicotiana tabacum L. was oriented in a large number on a chemically defined culture medium. The haploids were screened for T.M.V. resistance and the segregating ratio in F$_1$ were in good agreement with the expected ratio.

Burley tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) KB 108 was developed from a single cross between KB 104 and TC 591 which was developed from a cross between Burley 49 and Tobacco Introduction 1406. It was tested for its resistance to black shank, potato virus Y(PVY), TMV and agronomic characteristics under field conditions. KB 108 has resistance to tobacco mosaic virus(TMV) and necrotic strain of potato virus Y(PVY-VN) with secreting glandular trichomes. It has also moderate resistance to black shank caused by phytophthora parasitica val. Nicotianae. KB 108 has an up-right plant growth habit similar to Burley 21. It flowers about 1-2 days later than Burley 21. The leaf width and length of KB 108 are approximately 3 cm wider and longer than those of Burley 21. The yield of KB 108 was higher 4%, nearly equal in value per kg compared to Burley 21.

In order to obtain the basic information for the successful breeding of aromatic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), the heterosis, combining ability and gene distributions in 28 Fl hybrids by diallel crosses between Korea local and Oriental varieties were investigated. The yield were higher, stalk height, leaf length and leaf width were larger and days to flower was shorter for the Fl hybrids when compared to mid-parent. Estimates of general combining ability were significant for all characters investigated, and specific combining ability were significant for yield, stalk height, leaves Per Plant, leaf width and days to flower. In vr-wr graph, partial dominane was exhibited by all characters investigated.

This study was carried out to select cadmium resistant cell lines from leaf-derived calli of diploid and haploid of Nicotiana tabacum cv. BY4, for understanding adaptation mechanism of plants in cadmium contaminated environment. suspended cell clumps were plated onto selection medium containing 0 to 2,000 $\mu$M cadmium. Cadmium resistant colonies were formed on the selection medium after 3 or 4 weeks of culture. The minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of cadmium on colony formation were 300 $\mu$M in diploid and 200 $\mu$M in haploid plants, respectively. In order to test the resistance to cadmium, selected cell line on MIC were transferred to medium containing high concentration of cadmium. The selected cell lines, especially haploid cell line, were resistant an the high concentration of cadmium. And dry weight, ash weight, and cadmium contents of cell were increased. These results indicated that the selected cell lines showed higher resistance of cadmium than control cells, and haploid plant is more resistant than diploid plant on medium with cadmium.
