The brown marmorated stink bug, Halyomorpha halys, has become a severe threat to agriculture worldwide with continuous invasion and spread. Sulfoxaflor is the pioneering sulfoximine insecticide and has been widely employed for managing sap-feeding insect pests across diverse crops. However, the sublethal effects of sulfoxaflor on the growth and reproduction of H. halys remain unexplored. This study employed age-stage life tables and physiological parameters to evaluate the sublethal effects of sulfoxaflor on H. halys. The bioassay results indicated that the LC20 and LC50 values of sulfoxaflor against second-instar nymphs of H. halys were 7.75 and 20.97 mg/L, respectively. Treatment with the LC20 concentration of sulfoxaflor reduced the lifespan of female adults by 11.74 days. Importantly, the oviposition period of females was shortened by 9.47 days, and the fecundity was decreased by 1.4-fold. Additionally, the activities of cytochrome P450 (P450s) and glutathione S-transferase (GSTs) enzymes in H. halys were enhanced 1.40 and 1.54 times after treatment with sublethal concentrations of sulfoxaflor. These findings demonstrate that sublethal concentrations of sulfoxaflor significantly inhibit the population development of H. halys. Moreover, the detoxification enzymes P450s and GSTs may be associated with the potential resistance to sulfoxaflor in H. halys. This information provides valuable insights into the application of sulfoxaflor in the management of this pest.
