The correct option is B Sesbania rostrata
Sesbania rostrata is a small semi-aquatic leguminous tree, in the genus Sesbania. It forms a symbiotic relationship with Gram-negative Rhizobia and Azorhizobium which leads to the formation of nitrogen-fixing nodules on both stem and roots.
So the correct answer is 'Sesbania rostrata'
