I was traipsing around seed vault on the net the other day and I noticed their scientific names for different tobaccos. You couldn't necessarily tell if they were burly, virginia, oriental, at least I couldn't by their scientific names. I could guess from their popular names and where they were from. So I'm going to post the scientific names and you tell me what the plant in laymen terms is as far as classification.
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. tabacum
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. macrophylla
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. pallescens
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. lingua
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. undulata
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. havanensis
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. serotina
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. alipes
Nicotiana tabacum L. var. sagittata
I've to cross check the GRIN and even googled but not with a lot of success.
