      Summary: In this note we obtain numerous new bases for the algebra of symmetric functions whose generators are chromatic symmetric functions. More precisely, if \(\{G_k\}_{k\geqslant 1}\) is a set of connected graphs such that \(G_k\) has \(k\) vertices for each \(k\), then the set of all chromatic symmetric functions \(\{X_{G_k}\}_{k\geqslant 1}\) generates the algebra of symmetric functions. We also obtain explicit expressions for the generators arising from complete graphs, star graphs, path graphs and cycle graphs.
