Title: Die Isolierung bodenbewohnender Feinde des Maisbranderregers Ustilago maydis
Abstract: Abstract The Isolation of Soil‐Inhabiting Enemies of Ustilago maydis Using sporidial lawns of Ustilago maydis in water agar layers as indicator plates 2 organisms could be isolated from soil samples which produce plaques. These organisms were identified as Acanthamoeba polyphaga and Myxococcus spp. Both organisms control populations of Ustilago maydis in sterile soil too. The isolation method may be gainfully used in the search for further organisms with more specific potential for the biological control of Ustilago maydis .
