Abstract

Experiments of boron sprayed on leaves were conducted in flue-cured production and breeding fields in Yongzhou Base of Fine Seeds Breeding of China Tobacco in successive two years.The results showed that the growth,yield and quality of flue-cured tobacco leaves were improved by borax sprayed on leaves in a certain concentration.The range of increasing of yield,production value and superior leaf proportion were 2.51%~4.36%,4.88%~8.46% and 25.06%~31.78%,respectively.Yield and quality of flue-cure tobacco seeds were improved significantly by boron sprayed on leaves,and the range of increasing of yield and thousand seed weight were 17.95%~22.44% and 6.49%~10.39% respectively.Under conditions in this study,the optimum concentration of borax was 0.3%~0.4%.
