During feeding, BPHs secrete salivary proteins to form salivary sheaths, which are crucial for successful and sustained phloem sap ingestion. These salivary sheath proteins are crucial for rice\u2013BPH interactions and hold promise as targets for pest control strategies like RNAi. However, the specific functions of salivary proteins in sheath formation remain largely unclear. In this study, we identify NlSRP, a serine\u2010rich salivary protein in BPH, as a novel planthopper\u2010specific secreted salivary protein.\n                    <jats:italic>NlSRP<\/jats:italic>\n                    is highly expressed in the salivary glands and is delivered into host rice plants during feeding.
