Answer:
Because rhizombium is a symbiotic bacteria which provides its host with nitrogen without which the plant will die and in return the plant provides food and shelter to Rhizombium bacteria. A particular rhizobium bacteria which is compatible for a specific species of legumes can form nodules (nodulation)
