Consider the following statements regarding vascular differentiation:

1. Auxin is the principal limiting factor for vascular differentiation.

2. Gibberellic Acid (GA) is essential for the differentiation of phloem.

3. Lower levels of NH4+ and NO3- inhibit vascularization.

4. A high Cytokinin : Auxin ratio can promote both xylem and phloem differentiation.
