It is proved that the chromatic polynomial of a connected graph with n vertices and m edges has a root with modulus at least (m&1)Â(n&2); this bound is best possible for trees and 2-trees (only). It is also proved that the chromatic polynomial of a graph with few triangles that is not a forest has a

## Abstract A graph is chromatically unique if it is uniquely determined by its chromatic polynomial. Let __G__ be a chromatically unique graph and let __K__~__m__~ denote the complete graph on __m__ vertices. This paper is mainly concerned with the chromaticity of __K__~__m__~ + __G__ where + deno
