TL;DR: It is suggested that Baker's law might be tested in four different contexts, which set the breadth of its scope: the colonization of oceanic islands, metapopulation dynamics with recurrent colonization, range expansions with recurrent Colonization, and colonization through species invasions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geographic range size is predicted by plant mating system
TL;DR: It is shown that plant species that autonomously reproduce via self-pollination consistently have larger geographic ranges than their close relatives that generally require two parents for reproduction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased Floral Divergence in Sympatric Monkeyflowers
TL;DR: It is found that sympatric sister species are more likely to have one species with anthers that overtop their stigmas than allopatrics sister species, suggesting that the evolution of automatic self‐pollination may contribute to this pattern.
Journal ArticleDOI
Niche and range size patterns suggest that speciation begins in small, ecologically diverged populations in North American monkeyflowers (Mimulus spp.).
TL;DR: The results suggest that budding speciation has occurred frequently in Mimulus, that it has likely taken place both inside the range and on the range periphery, and that observed divergences in habitat and resource use could be associated with speciation in small populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self‐compatibility is over‐represented on islands

TL;DR: Isle floras around the world reflect the role of a key reproductive trait in filtering potential colonizing species in these three widely distributed flowering plant families, and demonstrate that the presence or absence of self-incompatibility has strong explanatory power for plant geographical patterns.
