    Abstract:
    The investigation of dwarfing rootstocks for the establishment of high-generation seed orchards is a prospective avenue of research. In this investigation, Pinus massoniana, Pinus yunnanensis var. pygmaea (P. pygmaea), and P. elliottii seedlings were used as rootstocks for grafting with P. massoniana scions. Grafting P. massoniana onto P. pygmaea rootstock resulted in observable phenotypic alterations in lateral branches, apical buds, and needle length. Certain characteristic metabolites of rootstocks, such as fatty acyls, pregnenolones, steroids, and steroid derivatives, were found to be highly expressed in scions after grafting. RNA-seq analysis revealed MYB-related, SBP, and bHLH demonstrating a significant positive correlation, while C2H2 and Orphans exhibited negative correlations with the differential intensity of metabolites related to lipids and lipid-like molecules. This study offers valuable insights for the establishment of rootstock breeding programs.
