Which one of the following statement is incorrect?

1. Sturtevant used the frequency of recombination between gene pairs on the same chromosome as a measure of the distance between genes
2. Sutton and Boveri argued that the pairing and separation of a pair of chromosomes would lead to the segregation of a pair of factors they carried.
3. Y-linked genes are holandric
4. 7 : 1 : 1 : 7 as linkage ratio in case of dihybrid test cross means that there are 8 parental and 8 recombinant plants
