A dominating set S in a graph G is a tree dominating set of G if the subgraph induced by S is a tree. The tree domatic number of G is the maximum number of pairwise disjoint tree dominating sets in V(G). First, some exact values of and sharp bounds for the tree domatic number are given. Then, we establish a sharp lower bound for the number of edges in a connected graph of given order and given tree domatic number, and we characterize the extremal graphs. Finally, we show that a tree domatic number of a planar graph is at most 4 and give a characterization of planar graphs with the tree domatic number 3.
