The authors analyze the tour partitioning heuristics for the Capacitated Minimum Spanning Tree problem. Lower bounds for the worst-case performance ratios of these heuristics are obtained by using worst-case examples. The authors also generalize the heuristics to the multi-center case with the same worst-case bounds.
