During organogenesis in plant tissue culture:
1. an excess of auxin will often result in a proliferation of roots, while an excess of cytokinin yield shoots
2. an excess of auxin will often result in a proliferation of roots, while an excess of gibberellins  yield shoots
3. an excess of cytokinin will often result in a proliferation of roots, while an excess of gibberellins  yield shoots
4. an excess of gibberellins will often result in a proliferation of roots, while an excess of ethylene  yield shoots

Plant tissue culture may offer certain advantages over traditional methods of propagation, including all the following except:
1. The production of plants that exhibit large variations from the parent plants.
2. Quickly production of mature plants.
3. The regeneration of whole plants from plant cells that have been genetically modified.
4. Storage of genetic plant material to safeguard native plant species.
