Let G be a graph and d v denote the degree of the vertex v in G. The zeroth-order general Randić index of a graph is defined as R 0α (G) = ∑ v∈V(G) d α v where α is an arbitrary real number. In this paper, we obtained the lower and upper bounds for the zeroth-order general Randić index R 0α (G) among all unicycle graphs G of order n. We give a clear picture for R 0α (G) of unicycle graphs according to real number α in different intervals.
