Table 1. Summary of a three-way Analysis of Variance (F and P values) testing the effect of species, year, island size class and their interactive effects on different biomass allocation response variables; RA, LMF and SMF are the proportion of total shoot biomass produced in the growing season allocated to fruits, leaves and stems, respectively, and shoot turnover is the proportion of total shoot biomass produced in the growing season.

Figures in bold indicate statistical significant at P < 0.05.

Degree of freedom for Island size class = 2, 27; Year = 1, 135, Species = 2, 135; Island size class x Species = 4, 135; Year x Island size class x Species = 4, 135
