Rice planthoppers are the most destructive pests of rice production and the vectors of rice viruses. Fenmezoditiaz as a novel mesoionic insecticide is used for rice planthopper management by targeting the insect&rsquo:s neural nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of fenmezoditiaz on the acquisition, propagation, and transmission of southern rice black-streaked dwarf virus (SRBSDV) by the white-backed planthopper, Sogatella furcifera (Hemiptera: Delphacida). The results revealed that sublethal concentrations of fenmezoditiaz significantly impaired SRBSDV acquisition and viral replication in S. furcifera. Fenmezoditiaz-treated viruliferous S. furcifera exhibited a lower transmission efficiency of SRBSDV to un-infected rice seedlings. Electrical penetration graph (EPG) recordings revealed prolonged non-probing (NP), salivary secretion (N2/N3), and xylem feeding (N5) durations, alongside shortened phloem contact behavior (N4a/N4b), of fenmezoditiaz-treated individuals, indicating disrupted feeding behaviors, which are critical for reducing viral infection. By reducing viral titers and interfering with phloem ingestion, fenmezoditiaz significantly suppresses SRBSDV transmission. These findings revealed fenmezoditiaz&rsquo:s dual role in pest control and viral transmission blockage, providing a foundation for incorporation into integrated management of vector-borne plant viruses.
