Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the structures of extremal trees which have the minimal number of subtrees in the set of all trees with a given degree sequence. In particular, the extremal trees must be caterpillar and but in general not unique. Moreover, all extremal trees with a given degree sequence $${\pi = (d_1, \ldots, d_{5}, 1, \ldots, 1)}$$ ? = ( d 1 , ? , d 5 , 1 , ? , 1 ) have been characterized.
