New deposits to the ICMP

As these are new bacteria or yeast to the collection, all seven cultures from the Kombucha project are to be deposited into the International Collection of Microorganisms from Plants (ICMP) under my name:

21922 - BB1 - Brettanomyces bruxellensis
21923 - BB2 - Cyberindnera jadinii
21924 - BB3 - Gluconobacter (oxydans or roseus or new species)
21925 - BB4 - Acetobacter musti
21926 - BB5 - Acetobacter papayae
21927 - BB6 - Pichia manshurica
21928 - BB7 - Gluconobacter (oxydans or roseus or new species)

It was a thrill to complete and sign off the deposit forms.
