How many of the following statements is/are correct?
(1) Both Rhizobium and Frankia are free-living in soil and can fix only under symbiotic condition.
(2) Root nodules can be best observed before flowering
(3) The formation of root nodules takes place as a result of the division of cortical and pericycle cells.
