The purpose of this study was to establish the myxobacterial biodiversity of an established oak-hickory forest and a savanna restoration site that has been cut and subsequently burned on four occasions between 1993 and 1998 in an attempt to restore the land to the native savanna ecosystem. Soil and bark samples were processed through standard methods specifically for myxobacteria and numbers and types of species were recorded for both locations. Species were identified through morphology of fruiting bodies, SDS-PAGE of whole cell protein profiles, and 16S rRNA gene sequences.
