    I am not certain it is possible to set default (for example, groot) properties for stem plots without affecting all other line series plots. It does not seem so from the documentation.
     
    You might contact MathWorks to see if such an option exists, but I would be surprised if it does.
     
    If you use stem a lot and do not want to set the properties each time, consider creating your own stem function.
     
    Example:
    function hs = MyStem(x,y)
hs = stem(x,y, 'LineWidth',1)
end

    Save it as a function file. Then just call your MyStem function as you otherwise would call stem. In this example, it also returns the handle if you want it to, so you can set the other parameters, such as axis labels, title, and others from your script.
