A connected graph having large minimum vertex degree must have a spanning tree with many leaves. In particular, let l(n, k) be the maximum integer m such that every connected n-vertex graph with minimum degree at least k has a spanning tree with at least m leaves. Then l(n, 3) ≥ n/4 + 2, l(n, 4) ≥ (2n + 8) /5, and l(n, k) ≤ n − 3n/(k +1) + 2 for all k. The lower bounds are proved by an algorithm that constructs a spanning tree with at least the desired number of leaves. Finally, l(n, k) ≥ (1 − blnk/k)n for large k, again proved algorithmically, where b is any constant exceeding 2.5
