				ABSTRACT 
				
				In compliance with tobacco trading and the 
				requirements of cigarette companies, it is necessary to restore 
				the good trade image and commercial properties of the smoking 
				qualities of the ecotype Dzebel basma. The variety structure of 
				Dzebel basma has to be renovated with new genotypes of  
				 high quality, 
				flavour and aroma, typical for traditional basma.
				In accordance to that, three varieties of oriental 
				tobacco Dzebel basma – Dzebel basma 1, Dzebel basma 2, Basma 
				13.were created and acknowledged by IASAS and Patent office of 
				Bulgaria (2008-2010). The 
				genotypes presented here are genuine basma tobaccos. Their 
				biological, morphological, economic and technological 
				characteristics combine the qualities of the old Dzebel tobacco 
				with the new market requirements.
				
				
				Key words: dzebel basma 1, dzebel basma 2, 
				basma 13, oriental tobacco
