Thank you for your answers. I actually came up with both "fruiting" and "node" too which I think must then both be correct depending on the context - I was looking for confirmation. I would like to award you both points but I don't think this works!

Dear Samaa,
The text is the only determinant;which does not exist. We are only trying to do our best.

Plz. note that nodules are formed on the roots of plants. Apparently, the عقد in question are part of the fruition process.
