Abstract
A clique-transversal set D of a graph G is a set of vertices of G such that D meets all cliques of G. The clique-transversal number is the minimum cardinality of a clique-transversal set in G. For every cubic graph with at most two bridges, we first show that it has a perfect matching which contains exactly one edge of each triangle of it; by the result, we determine the exact value of the clique-transversal number of line graph of it. Also, we present a sharp upper bound on the clique-transversal number of line graph of a cubic graph. Furthermore, we prove that the clique-transversal number of line graph of a triangle-free graph is at most the chromatic number of complement of the triangle-free graph.
