The insect ingests plant tissue containing the fatty acids, an enzyme in the gut conjugates the plant-derived fatty acid to an insect-derived amino acid to form an elicitor, When plants recognize elicitors from insect saliva induces some typical responses such as

a) Increasing Ca²⁺ levels in the cytosol and then activate an array of target proteins, such as calmodulin and other Ca²⁺-dependent protein kinases

b) In Arabidopsis, a calmodulin-binding transcriptional regulator called IQD1 was identified as an important mediator of defense responses against insect herbivory

c) overexpression of IQD1 in Arabidopsis activate the herbivore activity

d) IQD1 binds calmodulin, a major Ca2+-binding protein, in a Ca2+-dependent manner and subsequently inhibits the gene involved in glucosinolate biosynthesis

DNA from a strain of Bacillus subtilis with genotype a+b+ c+d+ e+ is used to transform a strain with genotype a - b- c- d-   e-. Pairs of genes are checked for co-transformation and the following results are obtained:

Pair of co-transform genes as follow

D-E,             E-C,                C-B,                  A-D

On the basis of these results, what is the order of the genes on the bacterial chromosome?
