For $S=1/2$ spins and $T=1/2$ pseudospins one finds that the quantum entanglement is similar at the SU(4) symmetry point and in the spin-orbital valence bond state. We also show that quantum transitions in spin-orbital models turn out to be continuous under certain circumstances, in constrast to the discontinuous transitions in spin models with SU(2) symmetry.5 pages, 4 figuresStrongly Correlated Electronstext
