Abstract
In 1959 Tutte [5] gave a minor characterization of graphic matroids. Within the framework of greedoids, a natural analogue of the cycle matroid in graphs is the branching greedoid. Schmidt has shown that, similar to Tutte's result, branching greedoids can be characterized by forbidden minors. Here we give a simpler proof of this theorem.
