With reference to factors affecting the rate of photosynthesis, which of the following statements is not correct?

1. Light saturation for CO2-fixation occurs at 10% of full sunlight.
2. Increasing atmospheric CO2 concentration upto 0.05% can enhance the CO2-fixation rate
3. C3 plants respond to higher temperature with enhanced photosynthesis, while C4 plants have a much lower temperature optimum.
4. Tomato is a greenhouse crop, which can be grown in a CO2-enriched atmosphere for higher yield.
