Article Synopsis
  • Self-compatibility, longer lifespan, and generalized pollination strategies significantly enhance the chances of flowering plants successfully colonizing islands, particularly in isolated areas.
  • A comprehensive study of 3,222 flowering plant species indicates that self-compatibility plays a major role in island colonization, while lifespan and pollination methods are also influential but depend on breeding system interactions.
  • The research emphasizes that the likelihood of island colonization is primarily driven by breeding systems and the opportunity to arrive on islands, with the presence of other unmeasured traits also affecting outcomes.
