Which of the following is not true for flowering?

1. Only duration of dark period is important

2. Certain plants depend not only on a combination of light and dark exposures but also their relative durations

3. The site of perception for light or dark duration are the leaves

4. There is a hormonal substance which migrates from leaves to shoot apices for inducing flowering only when the plants are exposed to the necessary inductive photoperiod.
