Spanish term or phrase:pie madre
El texto original dice "...para alcanzar mayor enraizamiento de estacas en pies madre".
En el Diccionario Forestal de la Sociedad Española de Ciencias Forestales encontré una entrada para "pie padre", término que allí se traduce como "seed tree".
Por la definición de "pie padre" ("individuo [...] que se deja sin cortar para que disemine y regenere"), entiendo que un "pie madre" es algo totalmente distino, y no está incluido en dicho diccionario.
Explanation: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump to: navigation, search
A rootstock is a plant, and sometimes just the stump, which already has an established, healthy root system, used for grafting a cutting or budding from another plant. The tree part being grafted onto the rootstock is usually called the scion. The scion is the plant which has the properties desired by the propagator, and the rootstock is the working part which interacts with the soil to nourish the new plant. After a few years, the tissues of the two parts will have grown together, producing a single tree although genetically it always remains two different plants. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rootstock
Yes,the correct answer should be stock plant or mother plant (I withdrew my contribution earlier, more in amazement at the choice of answer by the asker).

I'm sorry, but this isn't correct. The rootstock is the stock ONTO WHICH the graft is affixed. The mother plant (pie madre) is the one that provides the grafts.

Explanation: Based on Liz's references, it appears that the "pie madre" is the plant from which grafts are cut for propagation purposes. This makes sense, since the "pie padre" is the seed " - or the alternative form of propagation. One could also say "scion," but that's ambiguous because it can refer to both the graft itself and to the plant from which it is cut. Note the explanation below on types of grafting:
There are many different types of grafting, including approach grafting, where the plants are grown next to each other and spliced together while still alive, bud grafting which involves **attaching a bud of the scion onto the stock**, wood grafting, where the scion is inserted directly into the wood of the stock, and bark grafting where the stock wood is not cut and a branch of the scion is inserted under the stock tree's bark. http://www.omafra.gov.on.ca/english/crops/facts/98-005.htm2

While "pie" usually refers to a tree specimen, in horticulture trees are commonly called "plants" as well.
