  The one-dimensional SU(4) Hubbard model perturbed by Hund coupling is
studied, away from half-filling, by means of renormalization group and
bosonization methods. A spectral gap is always present in the spin-orbital
sector irrespective of the magnitude of the Coulomb repulsion. We further
distinguish between two qualitatively different regimes. At small Hund
coupling, we find that the symmetry of the system is dynamically enlarged to
SU(4) at low energy with the result of {\it coherent} spin-orbital excitations.
When the charge sector is not gapped, a superconducting instability is shown to
exist. At large Hund coupling, the symmetry is no longer enlarged to SU(4) and
the excitations in the spin sector become {\it incoherent}. Furthermore, the
superconductivity can be suppressed in favor of the conventional charge density
wave state.
