Correct answer is (a) Miki

Explanation: Miki et al. in 1982 proposed the involvement of lectin-like proteins or ‘adhesins’ in flocculation. The interaction of lectin-like proteins with the mannose receptors is accepted as being at the heart of flocculation. Adhesins are present on the flocculent cell surfaces.
