In order to explore the relationship between the appearance quality index and chroma value of Honghuadajinyuan primary flue-cured tobacco leaves of different parts, and establish a method to identify different parts of tobacco leaves quickly and accurately, in this study, taking primary flue-cured tobacco leaves from Kunming as materials, based on the CIELAB color space theory, a colorimeter was used to measure the color values of tobacco leaves and the values were analyzed combined with the evaluation of appearance characteristics. The results showed that the comprehensive scores of appearance quality for three levelsof B2F, C2F, X2F were 73.70, 80.58, and 66.75, respectively, indicating that the middle leaves were better, the upper leaves were second, and the lower leaves were worst. In terms of chroma value, the total color difference value(ΔE) was displayed as middle > upper > lower, the upper leaves had the highest red-green chroma value(a) and color ratio(H), and the lower leaves had the highest brightness value(L) and hue Angle(H0). Through the correlation analysis of leaf appearance quality and chroma value, it was found that except for leaf structure, all other appearance quality indexes were extremely significantly negatively correlated with chroma values L and H0, extremely significantly positively correlated with a and H, and all appearance quality indexes were extremely significantly positively correlated with ΔE value. In conclusion, the Fisher discriminant model based on chroma values L, a, b, and H(color ratio) and ΔE had higher discriminant accuracy. The model could promote the identification of different parts of primary flue-cured tobacco leaves from qualitativeness to quantitativeness, and from empiricalization to theoreticalization.
