Resistance to various diseases of Korean native varieties were investigated in field. The results obtained are summarized as follows: 1) The varieties Ubangtchio and Osib-eubthio were moderately resistant to black shank, but Suantchio, Usultchio and Gwangtchio were slightly resistant. Dixie Bright 101, $H_2$ and Bright Yellow 4 were more resistant to black shank than any of the Korean native varieties. 2) Mokgitchio, Ubangtchio and Osib-eubtchio were moderately resistant to black root rot, but Useultchio Suantchio and Hoetchio were susceptible than Others. 3) Muktchio, Hoetchio and Ubangtchio were slightly resistant to wild fire. 4) Osib-ebthio was highly resistant to brown spot, but Ubangtchio, Hyangtchio and Mokgitchio were moderately resistant and Useultchio was susceptible to brown spot, but it was resistant than Bright ellow 4 or Bernhart 1000-1. 5) Hyangtchio was slightly resistant to CMV-Y. According to these results, except Virus disease, Ubangtchio was resistant to all of the above mentioned diseases. Osib-eubtchio, Hoetchio, Hyangtchio and Suantchio showed proferable disease resistant and these might be well utilized as breeding materials.

Tobacco diseases have not been recorded until 1900s in Korea, where tobacco plants were introduced at early 1700s. Practical researches on the disease have been conducted since mid 1960s. Major ten tobacco diseases were mosaic caused by tobacco mosaic virus·potato virus Y·cucumber mosaic virus, bacterial wilt, hollow stalk, wild fire caused by angular leaf spot strain, black shank, brown spot, powdery mildew and fusarium wilt. But their annual occurrences were varied according to changes of tobacco varieties and their cultivating practices. As no useful chemicals, several biological tactics have been developed to control the viral or bacterial diseases that give significant economic damages on sustainable crop yield, but not practicable to field farming condition yet. Transgenic tobacco plants containing foreign disease resistant genes have been developed by current bio-technology, but not released to farmers yet. Though some disease-resistant tobacco varieties have been developed by the conventional breeding technology and currently used by farmers, their disease controlling efficacy have been diminished by occurrence of the new strain or race. Future research on tobacco diseases has been focused on technical development to produce high quality tobacco with less production cost, which leads Korean tobacco industry to keep its competence against foreign industry and decreasing overall market.

KB103 was developed from a cross between Burley 21 and Va 528 in 1983. It was developed by haploid method derived from anther culture method. It has moderate resistance to black shank(Phytophhorn nicotianae Breda de Haan Var. nictiana Waterhouse). KB103 produced good yields and quality in 1988-1990. It flowered about four or five days later than standard variety Burley 21, and plant height, leaf width, leaves per plants were similar to those of Burley 21. In maturing and curing properties as well as in chemical constituents of cured leaves, KB 103 was very similar to that of Burley 21. Regional farm test with the breeding line, KB 8304- ADH 65 named as KB 103 in 1986, was performed for 4 crop years from 1987 at 29 locations. It was released on burley tobacco area in 1992.

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), TMV-common strain, causes severe damage on flue-cured tobacco in Korea. As the results, breeding programs were conducted to transfer the TMV resistance from NC567 to other cultivars. Advantage of F1, hybrid may not lie only in their heterotic value but also in directly combining of valuable dominant traits, e.g. for disease resistance, either in pairs or as groups already assembled in the two parents. A new TMV resistant flue-cured tobacco variety KF114 was developed from a cross as maternal parent MSNC567 and NC82 at the Suwon Experiment Station. KF114 was more vigorous growth characteristics in early stage than that of NC82, standard variety in Korea, and other characters were similar to those of NC82. It os high resistance to TMV, but bacterial wilt(Pseudomonas solanacerum) and black shank (Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae) is comparable to NC82. It should adapt well to the flue-cured production area and can reduce premature flowering under unfavorable weather conditions. Yield of KF114 is 1% to 5% higher, and nearly equal in value per KG compared with NC82. This variety, F1 hybrid, met acceptable standards for chemical and physical characteristics of cured leaf and high ranked good smoking taste by panel members in Korea Ginseng and Tobacco Research Institute.

A new flue - cured tobacco variety KF113 was developed by Nicotiana africana method from a cross of NC82 and Coker 347 at the Suwon Experiment Station. It was tested in the 0fficial Variety Test in 1991-1992 and the flue - cured Regional Farm Test in 1992. KFl13 flowers 4 days later than WC82 (standard variety in Korea) and its harvestable leaves are 2 more than those of NC82. The leaf type and shape of KFl13 resembles Coker 347. It has high resistance to bacterial wilt (Pseudomonas solanacearum) and black shank (Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae), and is susceptible to tobacco mosaic virus. It should adapt well to the flue - cured production area and can reduce premature flowering under unfavorable weather conditions. Yield of KFl13 is 5% higher than that of NC82, and nearly equal in value per kg compare with NC82. This variety met acceptable standards for chemical and physical characteristics of cured leaf and for smoking taste evaluated by panel members in Korea Ginseng & Tobacco Research Institute.

Potato Virus Y(PVY), vein necrosis strain, in Korea causes severe symptoms on burley tobacco(Nicotiana tabacum L.). As the results, programs to incorporate PVY resistance into commercial cultivars were initiatEd. But the development of the homozygous fertile line resistant to PVY is time consumming. This study was conducted whether the Fl hybrid could be used to reduce the yield losses caused by PVY. Four F1 hybrids were made between male - sterile(ms) NC 107 and KB 107 as maternal parent, and TC 612 and TC 613 as Pollen donor, respectively, and were evaluated for their PVY resistance and negatively associated traits. (ms NC 107 X TC 612) F1, named as KB 109, Ivas applied to yield trial and compared with commercial cultivars for the level of disease resistance, agronomic characteristics, chemical contents and physical properties. All Fl hybrid could be used commercially as the PVY resistant cultivar. Especially KB 109 have the resistance against PVY, tobacco mosaic virus and black shank(Phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae). It had wider leaves, flowered one day later, and yield of acceptable quality was higher than that of Burley 21, standard cultivar in Korea.

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), TMV-common strain, causes severe damage at growth, yield and leaf quality on flue-cured tobacco in Korea. Controlling TMV outbreak with cultivating practices and chemicals are limited, thus, the best way would be developing TMV resistant variety. A new flue-cured hybrid, KF118, was developed from a cross of maternal parent MSTC175 and TC853 at the Agro-tech. Research Group, KT＆G Central Research Institute. KF118 exhibited more vigorous growth characteristics in early stage than that of NC82, standard variety in Korea, while other characters were favorable to those of NC82, It is highly resistant to TMV and bacterial wilt(Ral-stonia solanacerum), and black shank(phytophthora parasitica var. nicotianae) is comparable to that of NC82. It should adapt well to the flue-cured production area, and can reduce premature flowering under unfavorable weather conditions. Yield of KF118 is 1 to 2% higher, and leaf quality is 4% higher than NC82. Fl hybrid, KF118, met acceptable standards for chemical and physical characteristics of cured leaf, and ranked high in good smoking taste by panel members in KT＆G.

Potato Virus Y (PVY), PVY-vein necrosis strain, causes severe damage at growth, yield and leaf quality on flue-cured tobacco in Korea. The development of PVY resistant flue-cured varieties without quality deterioration is therefore urgently desired. The flue-cured tobacco, KF120 (Korea Flue-cured 120), was a male-sterile (ms) $F_1$ hybrid derived from the cross between msKF117 and KF0007-7. msKF117 was developed from the cross of NC82 with N. africana and KF0007-7 was developed from the cross of KF117 with NC82. The agronomic characteristics and disease resistance of KF120 was evaluated during 2006-2007 field performance test. It showed better growth characteristics and yield performance than standard cultivar KF109. It had 2 more leaves per plant, flowered 2 days later than KF109. The yield of cured leaf of KF120 was increased by about 5% compared to KF109. The chemical composition and physical properties of the cured leaf of KF120 were as much acceptable as those of KF109. KF120 showed high resistance to PVY compared to KF109. It showed a similar mode of resistance to bacterial wilt and black shank as was found in KF109.
