We seperated 30 strains of mould belonging to 7 genera from leaf tobacco of Yunnan province, also studied radiation killing effect for different strains of mould. Results of the tests indicated that after radiation treatment of 9 kGy ,60,Co-γ rays, cigarettes and tobacco leaves would not suffer from moulds for more than one year at 30℃ temperature and 90% relative humidity and, no significant changes of the main chemical composition of tobacco (the total carbohydrate, total nicotine, total nitrogen, protein, total volatile alkali, ash content) were found.
