TABLE 1.

Results of species‐level generalised mixed models with Bayesian estimation (MCMCglmms), modelling naturalisation incidence (1–3) and naturalisation extent (4–6), for 2350 flowering plant taxa and invasiveness (7–9) for 1253 flowering plant taxa, based on seed bank data from the native range

Posterior mean values and credible intervals (CI) are presented. Only explanatory variable exerting significant effects are presented in the models. Reconstructed phylogeny and species identity were included in the models as random factors (Table S1).
