Superoxide dismutase (SOD) is a crucial metal-containing enzyme that plays a vital role in catalyzing the dismutation of superoxide anions, converting them into molecular oxygen and hydrogen peroxide, essential for enhancing plant stress tolerance. We identified 8 SOD genes (4 CSODs, 2 FSODs, and 2...
