Family: Sapotaceae

High Risk Traits:

• Native to high elevation tropical climates
  
• Tolerates many soil conditions (and potentially able to exploit many different habitat types)
  
• Self-fertile
  
• Seeds dispersed by humans and frugivorous mammals
  
• Tolerates and recovers from fires

Low Risk Traits:

• No evidence of naturalization or invasiveness reported elsewhere
  
• Unarmed (no spines, thorns or burrs)
  
• Non-toxic
  
• Edible fruit
  
• Long time to reproductive maturity (6+ years)
  
• Large fruit and seeds unlikely to be accidentally dispersed
  
• Seeds will not persist in the soil
