There are three essential nod gene for every bacterial species that is−NodA, NodB and NodC, that are required for synthesizing this basic structure such as;
a) NodA is an N-acyltransferase that catalyzes the addition of a fatty acyl chain
b) NodB is a chitin-oligosaccharide synthase that links the acetyl group of the terminal nonreducing sugar
c) NodC is a chitin-oligosaccharide synthase that links N-acetyl-D-glucosamine monomers
d) NodB is a chitin-oligosaccharide deacetylase that removes the acetyl group from the terminal nonreducing sugar
e) NodC is a chitin-oligosaccharide deacetylase that removes links N-acetyl-D-glucosamine monomers

The stages in the formation of the symbiotic relationship between the nitrogen-fixing bacteria and their host, Arrange the given statements of symbiotic association in a stepwise manner;
a) Migration of the bacteria toward the roots of the host plant by a chemotactic response mediated by chemical attractants
b) NodD with the flavonoids bind with the Promoter region of highly conserved the nod box
c) These attractants activate the rhizobial NodD protein,
d) The chemical attractants especially (iso)flavonoids and betaines, secreted by the roots
e)
Binding of the activated NodD to the nod box induces transcription of the other
