Let G = (V,E) be a graph and S ⊆ V. We say that S is a dominating set of G, if each vertex in V S has a neighbor in S. Moreover, we say that S is a connected (respectively, 2-edge connected or 2-connected) dominating set of G if G[S] is connected (respectively, 2-edge connected or 2-connected). The domination (respectively, connected domination, or 2-edge connected domination, or 2-connected domination) number of G is the cardinality of a minimum dominating (respectively, connected dominating, or 2-edge connected dominating, or 2-connected dominating) set of G, and is denoted γ (G) (respectively γ_1 (G), or γ_2^′ (G), or γ_2 (G)). A well-known result of Duchet and Meyniel states that γ_1 (G) ≤ 3 γ (G) − 2 for any connected graph G. We show that if γ (G) ≥ 2, then γ_2^′ (G) ≥ 5 γ (G) − 4 when G is a 2-edge connected graph and γ_2 (G) ≤ 11 γ (G) − 13 when G is a 2-connected triangle-free graph.
