The correlation between contents of Mn, Fe, Cu, Zn, Ca, Mg and the physical characteristic indexes of thickness, density, equilibrium moisture content, tension, filling value, stem ratio and total point of the flue-cured tobacco leaves were studied, the results showed that: 1) The thickness and density indexes of leaves have significant negative with the contents of Mn and Zn, but have positive correlations with those of Ca and Mg. 2) The effects of Zn and Mg contents on the physical properties of leaves are the most obvious, in which Zn content mainly influenced the thickness, density and tensile indexes of leaves, while Mg content influenced the thickness and density indexes of leaves. 3) High Ca content can increase leaf thickness and weaken filling value, however, over-high Ca content will reduce the moisture retention of leaves.
