Abstrakt: The herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) plant is world-renowned for its ornamental, medicinal, edible, and oil values. As global warming intensifies, its growth and development are often affected by high-temperature stress, especially in low-latitude regions. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is an important enzyme in the plant antioxidant systems and plays vital roles in stress response by maintaining the dynamic balance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) concentrations. To reveal the members of then SOD gene family and their potential roles under high-temperature stress, we performed a comprehensive identification of the SOD gene family in the low-latitude cultivar 'Hang Baishao' and analyzed the expression patterns of SOD family genes (PlSODs) in response to high-temperature stress and exogenous hormones. The present study identified ten potential PlSOD genes, encoding 145–261 amino acids, and their molecular weights varied from 15.319 to 29.973 kDa. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that PlSOD genes were categorized into three sub-families, and members within each sub-family exhibited similar conserved motifs. Gene expression analysis suggested that SOD genes were highly expressed in leaves, stems, and dormancy buds. Moreover, RNA-seq data revealed that PlCSD1-1, PlCSD3, and PlFSD1 may be related to high-temperature stress response. Finally, based on the Quantitative Real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) results, seven SOD genes were significantly upregulated in response to high-temperature stress, and exogenous EBR and ABA treatments can enhance high-temperature tolerance in P. lactiflora. Overall, these discoveries lay the foundation for elucidating the function of PlSOD genes for the thermotolerance of herbaceous peony and facilitating the genetic breeding of herbaceous peony cultivars with strong high-temperature resistance.
