Abstract: Abstract: The paper aims to select a kit that efficiently extracted cut tobacco DNA and obtained a higher diversity of the microbial community. The cut tobacco DNAs were extracted by using three different kits, and these extracted DNAs were used for amplicon high-throughput sequencing of the prokaryotic 16S rRNA gene V3-V4 region and the fungal ITS2 region. We compared their purities and concentrations and their microbial community diversity and structures. The results showed that: (1) the concentration of cut tobacco DNA from DNeasy? PowerPlant? Pro Kit (P) was (103.67±1.7) ng/μL significantly higher than those of other kits (P<0.01), and these DNA purities from three different kits reached the qualified level. (2) All DNA samples extracted by using the three different kits could reflect the prokaryotic community diversity and structures. At the phylum level, the kit P detected 11 phyla, E.Z.N.A.TM HP Plant Kit (M) detected 8 phyla, and DNeasy? PowerSoil? Kit (S) detected 5 phyla. And at the genus level, 83 genera were detected by using the kit P, 71 genera were detected by using the kit S, and 69 genera were detected by using the kit M. (3) These three kits could detect four phyla of fungi such as Unclassified group, Ascomycota, Zygomycota and Others, but the kit P detected the highest diversity of microbial community at the phylum level. And at the genus level of fungi, 30 genera were detected by using the kit P, 20 genera were detected by using the kit S, and 11 genera detected by using the kit M. DNeasy? PowerPlant? Pro Kit (P) can effectively extract the total DNAs of microbes in cut tobacco and cut tobacco, and it can detect more microbial community diversity. So the kit P is recommended for the analysis of tobacco microbial community diversity and structure.
