Abstract: Zinc is one of main micro elements influencing the normal growth and development of flue-cured tobacco, so zinc nutrition has multiple biological functions in flue- cured tobacco, and has an important influence on yield and quality of tobacco. With the development of researches on micro nutrients in recent years, researches on zinc nutrition of flue-cured tobacco are increasing. The paper summarized the relationship between zinc content in tobacco leaf and zinc content in soil, the accumulation and distribution rules of zinc in tobacco leaves, the effects of zinc on growth, physiology characteristics and quality of tobacco, the effect of zinc on the antiviral properties of tobacco, the interaction between zinc and other nutritional elements, and discussed the research trend and development prospect of zinc in tobacco, expecting to improve the quality of flue-cured tobacco and provide a feasible basis for the rational application of zinc fertilizer.
