Background Small auxin-upregulated RNAs ( SAURs ) gene family plays important roles in plant growth, development, and stress responses. However, the function of few  SAUR  genes is known in the peanut ( Arachis hypogaea  L.), one of the world’s major food legume crops. This study aimed to perform a comprehensive identification of the  SAUR  gene family from the peanut genome. Results The genome-wide analysis revealed that a total of 162  SAUR  genes were identified in the peanut genome. The phylogenetic analysis indicated that the SAUR proteins were classified into eight subfamilies. The  SAUR  gene family experienced a remarkable expansion after tetraploidization, which contributed to the tandem duplication events first occurring in subgenome A and then segmental duplication events occurring between A and B subgenomes. The expression profiles based on transcriptomic data showed that  SAUR  genes were dominantly expressed in the leaves, pistils, perianth, and peg tips, and were widely involved in tolerance against abiotic stresses. A total of 18  AhSAUR  genes selected from different subfamilies randomly presented 4 major expression patterns according to their expression characteristics in response to indole-3-acetic acid. The members from the same subfamily showed a similar expression pattern. Furthermore, the functional analysis revealed that  AhSAUR3  played a negative role in response to drought tolerance. Conclusions This study provided insights into the evolution and function of the  SAUR  gene family and may serve as a resource for further functional research on  AhSAUR  genes.
